Diamond Crown Maximus Explained

Diamond Crown Maximus (or Maximus by Diamond Crown) is a super premium cigar brand handmade by Tabacalera A. Fuente in the Dominican Republic for the J.C. Newman Cigar Company.

Introduced in 2003, Diamond Crown Maximus is a full-bodied cigar with a dark, rich Ecuadorian-grown wrapper. It has a much stronger blend, but is just as complex as its smooth, medium-bodied cousin, Diamond Crown cigar.

The wrapper leaves are from Oliva Tobacco's El Bajo farm, and are selected from the upper corona portion of the plant, which adds to the strength of its taste.
