Hi BS. I could not agree more with those, ESPECIALLY Viaje. I never got the hype around them. Thanks for posting.

You must never have had the skull and bones daisy cutter, original release mystery, or the zombie. Or the exclusivo lancero. I can't say much about their regular production stuff.

Pretty sure I have had all of the above (Or most) and was super excited about them when I lit up and afterward was super dissapointed as I could smoke similar profiles at a fraction of the price and not HTF stuff.
I look at this stuff now and just roll my eyes... But if YOU like it, smoke it!

Most dissapointing cigar I can recall was the Holiday Blend. Smoked it on Christmas a couple years ago and was like WTF. Oh and a Liga Privada T52 Pig I smoked about a month ago. I know my palate has changed over the last couple years but I couldn't even smoke the T52 pig to the half way point, yuck. Tasted like a deer terd that fell into a Floridian swamp.

100% agree, biggest disappointment in a cigar I have had in years.... for the price they are and at least in my area unable to find I rarely ever pick up any of Andre's sticks they just don't float my boat... at all... like ever...

Lord if this is not the truth. In particular Andre IMO. Sorry, not chasing these down anymore when there are plenty of other options readily available.
