The Diplomáticos Cancilleres is a premium Cuban cigar and an exciting new addition to the regular Diplomáticos portfolio. Diplomáticos is a relatively recent Habanos brand, established in the 1960s. All its cigars are medium to full in flavour and are made using tobacco leaves from the famous Vuelta Abajo region of Cuba.
Although the brand has been selected on several occasions for Regional Edition releases, for an extended period Diplomáticos No. 2 was the only vitola in the regular portfolio. Cancilleres therefore represents the first addition to the brand's permanent portfolio in many years, making it a particularly notable release for lovers and collectors of Cuban cigars.
The Cancilleres takes its name from the highest diplomatic rank, "Canciller", and is presented in the traditional 25 dressed box. The size known as Centrofinos in Cuban factories falls within what is commonly referred to as a Robusto vitola, giving this cigar a generous 50 ring gauge and 130mm length.
Totally handmade in Cuba using tobacco leaves from the renowned Vuelta Abajo region, the Diplomáticos Cancilleres combines traditional Habanos craftsmanship with a substantial format. Its generous proportions provide an enjoyable smoking experience, while the brand's medium to full flavour profile makes it a particularly interesting addition to the Diplomáticos range.
The Diplomáticos Cancilleres is an exciting choice for aficionados looking to discover a new regular-production Cuban cigar, bringing together the heritage of the Diplomáticos brand, Cuban tobacco craftsmanship and the distinctive Centrofinos vitola.

Deeper earthy flavours develop with cedar, spice and roasted tobacco becoming more pronounced, leading to a long and satisfying finish.
Aged Rum – The richness of an aged rum complements the Cancilleres' earthy tobacco, woody character and subtle sweetness.
Espresso – A strong espresso provides a pleasing contrast to the cigar's rich tobacco and spice notes.
Whisky – A smooth, mature whisky can complement the cigar's cedar, roasted and earthy flavours without overpowering its character.
Dark Chocolate – The natural bitterness and sweetness of dark chocolate work particularly well with the cigar's deeper tobacco and roasted notes.
Aged Cheese – Mature hard cheeses complement the Cancilleres' woody, nutty and earthy character.
Cured Meats – Rich cured meats provide a savoury accompaniment to the cigar's depth and spice.
Diplomáticos is a Cuban cigar marque created as a more accessible alternative within the world of premium Habanos, while retaining the traditional craftsmanship and Cuban tobacco character associated with Havana cigars.
The Diplomáticos range is appreciated by aficionados for its approachable yet distinctive flavour profile, with its cigars offering a variety of formats suited to different smoking occasions.
The Cancilleres represents a new addition to the marque's regular production, with the cigar released in 2025. It is made in Cuba and presented in boxes of 25 cigars.
