Default Where to start with Viaje?

So I have been noticing that there is a lot of love for Viaje. I haven't smoked any of the cigars made by them and with all of the attention that they seem to get I figured it is time I that give them a try.

Where do I start? What was the Viaje that got you hooked?

Thanks!

50/50 is a great place to start!!! There are so many out there in limited quantities that if you can find them, grab these...

Well, Jimmy, you have asked the right guy. I have been fortunate enough to try most if not all Viajes. For starters, I would go with the Platino and Oro, they are fairly priced and smoke well. The platino lancero is a very good smoke, one of the best imo.

Someone else mentioned the 50/50, that is a good smoke, one of the better of the Viaje lines. And of course the rare Viajes but they are hard to come by. LMK if you need any help finding them Jimmy. I can point you in the right direction

Thanks for the suggestions, sounds like I can't really go wrong with any of the Viaje's cigars. I don't have a local retailer who carries them so I'll be ordering on-line.

Jimmy, pm NorcalMark.

He is a retailer up here in Sacramento (Tower Pipes and Cigars). He will hook you up with whatever you need. He carries a very large line of Viajes.

Platino reserva figurado is a damn fine smoke.
