If you enjoy the regular Diamond Crown blend, you’re in for a real treat with the DC Maximus. The secret behind this exquisite cigar is the dark, oily wrapper. Rolled with a super-rich, Ecuadorian-grown El Bajo sungrown leaf from the Oliva family’s farm, this cigar is almost as enjoyable to look at as it is to burn. A bold, full-flavored cigar that’s chock full of robust, satisfying flavors and luxuriously smooth from start to finish. A wonderful (but expensive) top-shelf premium. Diamond Crown Maximus received a well-deserved 93-rating noting: "a rich, sweet cigar with plenty of cedar on the palate and a finish with notes of espresso beans."
Great flavor, strength, and draw. Can't go wrong if you like robust!

Exceptional but pricey smoke
Mar 25, 2018
The Maximus is quite a fine smoke in the Diamond Crown Line, which tearrly are a bargain. I guess you get what you pay for unlesss, like me, you score them as part of a weekend special sampler. Wish I had doubled or tripled my order. Oh well — nothing is more expensive than regret.

"The Find" is the goal.
Jan 03, 2017
In wine tasting or cigars its the same; Its not about most famous or most expensive, rather purists seek the best of the unfound, before the market demand forces a higher price. Ive smoked Opus, La Boheme, Special Edition Cohibas, Davidoff, and others, there is hardly a comparison even with cigars 5 times the cost. This cigar, Diamond Crown Maximus has become my favorite from the first time I tried it. Truly an underrated cigar, perhaps just not well known as of yet. Let me say, I smoke these down to burring my fingers, where I can only hold it by my lips with the last puff of a savory smoke. Pair this equally with a rich coffee or a smokey scotch. Get yourself a box, I did and Ill have ordered another by the time you read my thoughts. I don't get perks for reviews people, I only want others to enjoy something and stop searching around for the perfect smoke, this one will fit the bill and the budget. Its an anytime smoke, not to heavy or strong…listed as full flavor I have also smoked the Julius Caesar and find this an easier smoke only more complexity and richer flavor.

Once again CI comes through with a quality cigar and very fast shipping. My cigars were fresh and the Diamond Crown is a very nice tasting cigar with a quality burn. Always like purchasing my cigars from CI.

Worth the money
Jul 23, 2016
These are my #2 cigar and my brother's #1, so we split a box. Very smooth,earthy,smoke. Smokes better than alot of 'lighter' cigars. Quite a savings over buying individual sticks at the local cigar shop. Very good smoke at a savings vs buying local.

His pick
Mar 14, 2016
A livelong friend of mine always went to the bargain basket every time we visited the cigar bar to find the most inexpensive cigar there. l bought him a Maximus. Told him if he could not tell any difference between this cigar and the junk he had been smoking that I would leave him along and not harp about him buying junk cigars. This happen around five years ago. This is the only cigar he buys now.

Customer Testimonials
I am smoking one of these as I write this and this is my first Maximus. I'm in love; I find it to be more in the full body range. Loads of pepper taste, even a little jalapeno spiciness in the first half. The second half has mellowed a bit, still a good amount of pepper, but also getting some leathery notes through the nose. The construction is flawless with an almost perfect burn as I've come to expect from Diamond Crown. I love the J.C. and now I'm infatuated with Max; it's a torrid love affair.
JS of san diego, CA
Flavorful with a smooth mouthful of complexities. Perfect burn with a 2 flick ash. Worthy of a special occasion smoke. 45 minutes of pleasure.
RW of PINEHURST, NC
Pretty good overall. From the reviews I had read I was expecting something sweet and slight spicy. What I ended up with was mostly spicy. The smoke is definitely medium to full body and full flavor. The smoke was very smooth and enjoyable. The flavors didn't change much, the potency did not really climb through any portion either. I like full body and full flavor cigars so none of this was a problem, it just wasn't what I was expecting. More leathery and peppery than anything else. The burn line was razor sharp and only had to discard the ash twice. Burn time was about 45 minutes, required no touch ups. I enjoyed this one to the nub.
JR of Reston, VA
Just fired up a DC Maximus...let me say...worth every minute. Makes life in Kabul, Afghanistan, enjoyable...for the hour long smoke. Started off very nice and built up from there.
KC of APOLLO BEACH, FL
The DC Maximus Pyramid is an outstanding smoke with plenty of flavor and excellent notes. I had the Pyramid #4 and was pleasantly surprised. A definite "must have" for your Humidor!!!!!!!!!!!!
JP of COVINA, CA
Tried the Maximus with great expectations but was sorely disappointed. It lacked the fullness and boldness that I have come to expect from other brands in this price range. I am looking to unload the remainder of this box on someone that appreciates them.
KL of Lawton, OK
I made an offer on five of the 8x50s and won. These cigars taste great from the first to the last puff. Med to Full but nothing overpowering. Very smooth and delicious. One of the few expensive cigars that are actually worth the money. Enjoy!
