Viaje WMD & MOAB

[klipsch]

"These two are arriving at stores next week. No specifics as of yet"...

Copy/pasted from another board...

[Bill86]

Thanks for the heads up, might have to look into some of these.

[pektel]

Every viaje I have tried has been awesome. But I think I'm done buying $15 NC's

If they are both the same blend as the TNT, I'll pass.

[Bill86]

If they are both the same blend as the TNT, I'll pass.

Agreed. The TNT was my least favorite Viaje.

[whodeeni]

If they are both the same blend as the TNT, I'll pass.

where'd you get that from?

[kelmac07]

I was told that the blend is gonna be close to the original release Skull 'N Bones. If that's the case...:dr :dr :dr

Sure, but that is what they said about the S&BII as well...

True.

[Bill86]

Looks like I'll let this one go and let the masses decide how good these are.

[klipsch]

Not sure if anybodies smoked the S&B ? recently...but I'm wishing I had held onto more than I did. Not as good as the Daisy Cutter...but really solid. If it has a skull & crossbones on it...I'm gonna buy it. I would rather have em, not like em and sell em...than not have em, find out I like em and have to pay somebody (pronounced: dirt bag) $3 more per stick because there's none let anywhere. :)

Walt...I've heard these have a RED Skull & Crossbones on the band and was given the word thermo-nuclear. We shall see.

[neoflex]

I guess I am in the minority of guys who liked the TNT. Rationing my last two.:td I just smoked the Candela tonight and I enjoyed it but the recent Exclusivo was still green IMHO so I am curious to see how these two new sticks smoke.

[Brooks W]

It does seem like the vast majority of the Recent (read: in the last year) Viaje releases have been VERY young and green tasting...

Other then the Tower 45th (which goes on sale in April), most likely because it has been sitting for 8 months or so after being rolled...

I just couldn't justify paying this premimum on the sticks...
Skull & Bones WMD 3.75x54 $9.95each/boxes of 25.
Skull & Bones MOAB 4.25x54 $10.40 each/box of 100.

[Zeuceone]

anyone near Corona Cigar in Fl?

That's pretty pricey for suck small sticks. I know my local will be getting them tomorrow so I'll decided after seeing them whether or not to snag a couple of each. Just too many other options in that price range.

[OLS]

than not have em, find out I like em and have to pay somebody (pronounced: dirt bag)
$3 more per stick because there's none left anywhere. :)
Ah-h-h...Ow that hurts. Now I have never sold a NC cigar for....well, anything actually.
But I have flipped the script a few times for lack of a better term. But I guess I am
comfortable with the term dirtbag. :) I always thought of myself more as 'helpful'.:D
A facilitator. A forward thinker. A capitalistic humanitarian. A dirtbag with a heart of gold.

But yeah....a dirtbag.

Sorry if I offended you. I guess that I should really look in the mirror if I'm going to be making such comments. I've sold sticks here for a dollar or more each at times myself. Once the cigar is paid for, the owner can do what they wish with it. I just keep a general guideline in mind...NO PROFITEERING. If I can't pass along a stick or two at a fair price...then it's because I'm a greedy self centered bastard that just wants to keep them all for myself, so that I can hand them out to friends. I just don't buy cigars to sell them.

Guess I really shot myself in the foot as far as selling any Franks or Pork Tenderloins, after that comment... :r

[Devanmc]

oh how i wish i could afford a box. oh well, still got most of a box of last years and 54ga is abit big for me

[Green Lantern]

They are on the shelves here at Corona. Smoking the Torpedo as I type. :)

If I could get them for that price, I'd buy at least a couple of each. The S&B's are ass kickers. Better keep the sugar packets handy.

And how is it?

[Green Lantern]

It's pretty strong and tasty. My only issue is due to the small format of the cigar it burns a bit hot.

[pektel]

Is the draw on the loose side?

I guess the hardest thing for me is the constant high end small batch release. At first I thought it was pretty cool. What gets old is constantly trying new $10-$20 cigars that 1. I have no idea if I'll actually like; and 2. If I do like/love them are now no longer available.

There are tons of great $10-20 regular production cigars that always seem to beat these limited release cigars. The Opus X Double Robusto, the Padron (just about any of the 64s, 26s, etc. Not to mention ones like the Siglo VI, PSD No. 4, etc.

[Trent0341]

That being said... for those of you who are into these I hope you get some and love 'em!

Not the worst prices just a shame the sticks weren't a bit bigger, and the ring gauges weren't 54.

I'm personally not going to go out of my way to try these.

[jovenhut]

Got mine today from Corona Cigars :0

[quantim0]

Got my 5er of WMD from Corona as well.

[kelmac07]

Corona here as well...but as of today, they were sold out of both sizes. :2

[pektel]

I can't. Got my funds tied up in sea sponges. Which sucks, because I'm a sucker for the s&b, no matter the vitola or release. Though I don't know if I'd want a stronger cigar than the last s&b.

Anyone Want To Do A Review On These Sticks, Please?:D

Anyone Want To Do A Review On These Sticks, Please?:D

Smooth but strong brotha..... (And yes, that's what she said Greg!);)
Very spicy, but not too overpowering to be honest with you, this is
definitely on par with the initial release,. I was hanging out with the
fella's, and they kept the Johnny walker flowing to the point that I
had to go outside, and drink a Mt. Dew Throwback (with real sugar in it)
to get sober again. The nicotine kick from this cigar wasn't too overwhelming,
put you definitely felt its presence as it progressed. I actually nubbed this cigar!
Sorry that my "mini-review" is so limited in details, but I was having too much fun
where I was at, and enjoying the cigar at the same time!


In my opinion this is what viaje "micro" batches are all about, a great blend that smokes well.
With all the BS that i've felt that Andre has been releasing lately (WLP's, 7.00 exclusivo shorts, etc...)
I really think he nailed it with this one!:tu

[ajacobs]

But who has boxes?
