What was the price point? They are fairly new, maybe you can fire one up and let us know your thoughts.

 

[Andyman]

I will but being right off the truck I wanna wait a few days

I just did the same but will wait at least 2 weeks. I am interested to see how they come out!

Smoked the Shank today. Interesting combo of sweetness & cayenne pepper. I enjoyed it completely but I do think it's a bit young. It did seem a little underfilled and burned fast but I have only smoked one. I might take down one of the Shiv's (51/4 x 52) tonight.

Finally some input! I love hot pepper spice and sweetness, going to have to pick some up.

Smoked a shiv (I think thats what it was called, the robusto sized one). It was in my top 3 worst cigars I've ever smoked. Bitter from the start and once it opened up, tasted like ash with a little background of pepper. I know a lot of Viaje's need time but these (I smoked 2 just to make sure the one wasn't a bad stick) were just bad and not green. I'm going to try a couple from a different shop in case this was just a bad box but not looking good. Only thing good about these was the band. G1

I smoked the rapier and was not impressed

Opened up now, lots of cayenne up front

Overall worth a try. Not a grand slam but not a bad smoke. A bit one dimensional but if you like this profile, try one.

Interesting. Mine will be in next week along with the 5th anniversary.

I'll probably not light one up for awhile, but looking forward to them nonetheless.

Looking for collectors series now.

Sound like these need serious rest.

No doubt. Patience will be rewarded as we have seen with many previous viaje releases.

Wish the 10 and 11 holiday blend would fall into this category. Jurys already our on the 10 I believe, no fixing that. Let's see what happens to the 11.

Now I thought the 11 holiday blend was decent bun only in the smaller vitola

 

[BigFoot]

I agree it was better than the 10 but that shouldn't of been hard to do. I'll have to smoke another 11 and see how they're coming along.

Not to beat a dead ... But the fifth anni smells sour to me... going to let that rest a week or two or three
