Description
The Diamond Crown Figurado No. 6 is a 6 x 64 figurado wrapped in twice-fermented Connecticut shade leaf over a Dominican binder and a filler of five tobaccos that J.C. Newman draws from the Caribbean and Central America. It is the thickest size in J.C. Newman’s Diamond Crown Classic line.
What It Tastes Like
Cigar Aficionado has rated this size twice. In December 2016 it scored 91 points at medium strength: toasty and warm-tempered, with a hint of nutmeg sweetness. In August 2026, listed as the Classic Figurado No. 6, it earned 90 points and was judged mild: herbal at first, then sweeter, with vanilla, cappuccino and cinnamon.
Who It’s For
- Connecticut shade smokers who want a big, slow cigar without a jump in strength.
- Figurado collectors drawn to a pointed head and a rounded foot that narrows to a tip.
- Diamond Crown regulars curious about the blend at 64 ring.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Scored 91 (December 2016) and 90 (August 2026) by Cigar Aficionado
- Wrapper is fermented twice, and J.C. Newman ages finished cigars at least 12 months
Cons
- A 64 ring gauge is a mouthful for anyone used to slimmer cigars
- Strength calls range from mild to medium
About Diamond Crown Classic
Stanford J. Newman and Carlos Fuente Jr. created Diamond Crown Classic in 1995 to mark J.C. Newman’s 100th anniversary. Tabacalera A. Fuente rolls it, and J.C. Newman says the finished cigars rest in batches of 50 for a year or more.
Pairing and Storage
Our cigar pairing guide suggests white rum or champagne for mild cigars; given the cappuccino note in the 2026 tasting, coffee is also worth a try.
