Diamond Crown Maximus
Created to commemorate J.C. Newman’s 105th anniversary, Diamond Crown MAXIMUS is a collaboration between three Cigar Aficionado Cigar Hall of Fame families: Arturo Fuente, J.C. Newman, and John Oliva. Carlos “Carlito” Fuente, Jr. and Stanford J. Newman developed this bold, luxurious blend using specially aged tobaccos, highlighted by an exclusive El Bajo Sungrown wrapper grown by John Oliva, Sr. in Ecuador. In 2026, J.C. Newman reintroduced Diamond Crown MAXIMUS with elegant new packaging and a refined blend.
