Rows in grey were last read more than 60 days ago: they are history, not quotes, and never count as the cheapest. Listed price for the box of 25 in the retailer's own currency, their own tax included. A box crossing a border picks up destination duty and VAT on top — the "duty paid EU" mark shows the few retailers whose price is all-in beyond their home market.

The piece
Montecristo's lesser-known cousin. Same factory, same Pirámides format as the famous Monte No. 2 — at a meaningfully lower price.
Diplomáticos was created in 1966 specifically for the French market, using the same Habanos factory and similar blends to Montecristo. The No. 2 is essentially the Montecristo No. 2 with a slightly different blend ratio — same Pirámides format, same 6.1 inches by 52 ring at the foot, but with a touch more ligero in the filler that gives the cigar a fuller body. For decades the brand was the connoisseur's hack: Montecristo character at 15 to 20 percent less than the cost of an actual Monte No. 2.
The smoke is denser than the Monte No. 2 it shadows. First third opens with espresso, leather and a touch of black pepper; the middle blooms into dark chocolate and dried fruit; the last third delivers a long, oily finish with leather, coffee and aged cedar. A box of 25 sits in the €520 to €635 range: Noblego runs around €545, Cigarmust CHF 605 (~€635). The €100 spread vs. the equivalent Monte No. 2 makes this a connoisseur's value pick.
Questions
Where is the cheapest place to buy Diplomáticos No. 2 in Europe right now?
We are tracking 5 European retailers that list Diplomáticos No. 2. Stock is moving — refresh this page or save it to your watchlist to be alerted when any retailer restocks at a competitive price.
Will the listed price include duty + VAT for my country?
Only if you live where the retailer is. Every price on this page is all-in (excise duty + VAT included) in the retailer's home country and nowhere else. Buy from a German retailer to a German address and what you see is what you pay. Buy across a border — a Swiss retailer shipping into the EU, or any EU retailer shipping to the UK, Sweden, Denmark, Finland or Ireland — and the destination country charges its own tobacco excise and VAT on arrival. How much depends on the destination's excise rate; our import-duty guide walks through the main markets.
The few retailers whose price is all-in beyond their home market carry a "duty paid EU" mark in the table.
How does Diplomáticos No. 2 compare to other Diplomáticos cigars?
Diplomáticos No. 2 is a Pirámides, ring 52, 156 mm, full strength, sold in a box of 25.
Is the price for Diplomáticos No. 2 likely to drop?
Habanos S.A. (the Cuban state tobacco monopoly) sets the worldwide release-price floor for every Habano in this catalogue. That floor went up roughly 40% during the 2022–2024 global price harmonisation, and Habanos has signalled further annual increases through 2027. So the long-term trend is up, not down.
Short-term, prices move at the retailer level — promotions, clearance, a restock at a different price. Where we have a history, the 90-day line on this page shows what the cheapest box in Europe has actually done. A price alert with no target emails you on any drop; setting a target limits it to your budget.
