Diesel Whiskey Row Robusto 5"1/2 * 52

Diesel Whiskey Row, made by AJ Fernandez in Nicaragua, is the latest brand that uses barrel aging to enhance the cigar’s profile. The Diesel Whiskey Row’s Mexican San Andrés binder leaves are aged in wooden barrels that previously contained Rabbit Hole bourbon. The Diesel Whiskey Row’s filler uses Nicaraguan tobacco that has been aged five to eight years. The cigar’s Ecuadorian habano wrapper has undergone a five-year aging process too. Contrary to what one might expect, barrel aging does not give the cigar an overpowering bourbon flavor. In fact, the Diesel Whiskey Row is a medium-strength cigar with strong notes of oak and leather. If you have ever wanted to experience a bourbon barrel-aged cigar, the Diesel Whiskey Row is great place to start.

The Robusto is a short Churchill size, traditionally 5 to 5.5 inches by a 50 ring gauge.

Most cigars are round in shape, as this is how the cigars are rolled by the torcedor.

This cigar is 5"1/2 inches long, or 139.7 mm.

Most cigars are manufactured in the Caribbean and Central America.
Despite many decades of war and revolution in this Central American country, the cigar industry has thrived due to the hard work and tenacity of Cuban exiles to the land such as Plasencia, Padron, Oliva, Ortez, and others. Tobacco has been a force of social stability, and the country is now one of the principal exporters of premium cigars in the world.

The cigar ring gauge corresponds to the diameter of a cigar, this cigar has a ring gauge of 52, so his diameter is 52/64 inches or 20.57 mm.

Cigar wrapper color varies from green (Double Claro or Candela) to black (Maduro or Oscuro) with a full range of browns in between.
Natural wrapper, also known as Colorado Claro, is light brown in color.

Handmade cigars are completely made by hand from start to finish.

Cuban expatriate AJ Fernandez produces handmade cigars in Esteli, Nicaragua at the Tabacalera Fernandez factory. Fernandez learned everything he knows about tobacco and cigarmaking from his late grandfather, cigar legend Alejandro Robaina.

The wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.
Ecuadorian Habano wrapper has become one of the most used cigar wrappers in the market. Grown primarily by the Oliva family, this tobacco originated from Habano or H2000 seeds brought to Ecuador from Cuba. This leaf is rich and flavorful thanks to the temperate climate of Ecuador and the quality of its volcanic soil.

The binder is a full tobacco leaf that is used to roll the cigar, binding the filler tobaccos together. 
The San Andres region in Mexico is known for producing some of the best tobacco in the world. The tobacco is stalk cut and valued for its rich dark color and used to make noteworthy maduro wrappers and binders.

Filler is the term used to describe the tobacco inside a cigar or the "guts" of the cigar.
