New Viaje S&B
 
Surprised there is no talk about the new Viaje S&B....?

Looks like 2 different boxes, one Red, one Black(box pressed).

There are also 50/50 RED, 50/50 Black out....

Not sure but I have a sneaking suspicion many here are starting to have LE hunting overload...

With that said do you have any more information? Link to images?

Not to mention that Andres has been going to the S&B well too often lately and with the majority of the releases being green I think guys are starting to be over it.:2

Yeah big time.

It's a shame the old Black band S&B's ("?'s") were pretty damn good cigars. I have no interest in any further ones though.

I'm not over it at all. I love the s&b, though the red labels are rather tacky.

But I also have never hopped on the tatuaje train, so I don't have nearly as many LE's to chase as those guys.

Had a chance to snag a 5er of these and I passed. Like John stated above, I believe Andre has gone to the S&B well one too many times.

I'd rather get a box of Bone Crusher or Skull Breaker. Cheaper and strong.

If I see some I will try a few, but not losing sleep over this one. Me and Andre use to agree on cigars but lately his limited stuff has done nothing for me. But I still enjoy some of his base lines.

Re: New Viaje S&B
 
passed on a box of these.....4 1/4 inches @ 225 + shipping......NOT worth it at all

I love the S&B but, there is a limit on overpriced......

I am getting some. Not over Viaje at all. Yes, tired of chasing them but I really enjoy them all.

:tpd: I played the game of trying to find some Viajes. They have not done anything for me either and have given up. If some pop up FS on here I might consider them but other than that I have no desire to hunt them down anymore.

Smoking a black band one. Not as good as last years. Really not close. Local has the white band ones also. Will grab one tomorrow and give it a go. I cannot endorse the black band at all. Smoked last years the other day and it destroys this.

Did I mention the black band one sucks?

I thought the first "?" release was pretty good but I massively overpaid on my 5er. The first red release I thought needed some down time. Probably not going to chase these ones.

Wow sucked huh? That is a shame that QC and blending had gone that down hill. Guess it is hard to keep up without DPG doing all the blending QC.

I didn't like the ? on initial release. But when I smoked a few recently, they were AMAZING.

I agree with the Red/Black ones needing some rest. The one I had shortly after they came out was good but I think it will become great. I had a chance to order a 5'er of these and I passed.

Most of what has come out of the Viaje camp as of late has been green with potential to turn into something good. The only think that has come out recently that I myself did not find to be green was the 2011 TNT and the Fatman/Little Boy S&B. I even found the Late Harvest to be green. This is also the reason why I have been finding myself more and more less interested in Viaje. I did recently grab some Satori but due to the recent track record I just buried them and figured I would smoke on in a few months from now.
