God of Fire KKP Special Reserve Diadema 60 — the largest expression of Prometheus's celebrated 30th Anniversary line, now available in a commanding Diadema format. At 5½" x 60, this figurado showcases the bottom priming of the rare Very Special Wrapper (VSW) grown at Chateau de la Fuente — selected for complexity and nuance, now delivered in a ring gauge that allows every layer to emerge.
The God of Fire KKP Special Reserve was first released in 2022 to commemorate the 30th Anniversary of Prometheus — three decades of partnership between founder Keith K. Park and the Fuente family that has defined what luxury cigars and accessories can be. In 2026, the Diademas Selection expands this exceptional line with three new figurado formats, and the Diadema 60 stands as the most expansive expression of the Special Reserve blend.
The VSW Wrapper — Bottom Priming
What distinguishes the Special Reserve from its sibling, the Never Back Down, is the wrapper selection. Both lines use the rare Very Special Wrapper (VSW) grown at Chateau de la Fuente, but the Special Reserve draws from the bottom priming — the leaves from lower on the plant, where shade creates complexity and subtle sweetness that the sun-drenched top leaves cannot deliver.
In the Diadema 60 format, this nuance finds room to expand. The substantial ring gauge allows every layer of the bottom-priming character to emerge — the sweetness, the subtlety, the transitions that reward attention.
The Diadema 60 Format
At 5½" x 60, the Diadema 60 is built for those who want the Special Reserve experience at its most expansive. The large ring gauge provides an open draw and allows the blend's complexity to develop across a wide surface area. The figurado taper concentrates flavor at the start before opening into the full body of the cigar.
This is not a quick smoke. The Diadema 60 demands time and attention — an hour or more for those who appreciate what the bottom-priming VSW can deliver when given room to breathe. The construction requires considerable skill from the torcedores at Tabacalera A. Fuente y Cia, who shape each cigar by hand to ensure even combustion throughout the changing proportions.
The Profile
Expect a sophisticated, full-bodied smoking experience that reveals itself in stages. The first third opens with cedar and earth, balanced by the natural sweetness the bottom-priming wrapper contributes from the first draw. The middle section introduces leather and warm spice, with roasted nuts and subtle cocoa emerging as the ring gauge opens up. The final third builds complexity without overwhelming the palate — pepper balanced by continued sweetness, refinement sustained through a long, satisfying finish.
Where the Never Back Down Diadema 60 pushes toward intensity, the Special Reserve Diadema 60 pulls toward depth. Same ring gauge, same figurado format, but a fundamentally different character — power tempered by nuance, strength shaped by subtlety.
The Presentation
Ten cigars arrive in a limited edition Macassar Ebony travel humidor produced by Prometheus. The humidor is a collector's piece in its own right — exotic wood finish, Spanish cedar interior, and the quality construction that has defined Prometheus for over three decades.
Why This Cigar
The Tobacconist of Greenwich has been a trusted God of Fire retailer since the brand's introduction in 2004. Access to the 2026 Diademas Selection is reserved for retailers who have demonstrated commitment to the brand over decades, not seasons.
The Special Reserve Diadema 60 offers collectors the chance to experience what bottom-priming VSW can do in the largest figurado format — all the complexity the Chateau de la Fuente terroir provides, with the ring gauge to let every nuance emerge. For those who find the Diadema 54 or Diadema 56 too concentrated, or who simply want the most expansive canvas the Special Reserve offers, this is the vitola.
The rarest cigars don't wait — and neither should you.
