Viaje 50/50 - Page 2

09-16-2009, 10:39 PM

Before I tried the 50/50 my favorite was/still is the Viaje Platino Lancero....it's a stunning smoke!

NHC has a Viaje 50/50 3-pack for a good price.

That price sounds about right over at my place as well.

Thanks for the review Huy

Bringing this one outta the ashes...

Great review Huy... It's convinced me to pull the trigger on these. Just so happens my local B & M is a distributer.

Looking forward to trying one soon!!!

With this cigar, for those who have smoked it, can you actually taste a difference half way? This cigar has always intrigued me, and it's always been on my buy list, I have always just wanted something else a little more.

It seemed to me to be blended in reverse, went from medium to mild. Plus it tasted bad. I still haven't had a Viaje that I cared for.

I've been able too...quite distinctly I might add. I typically reach for the robusto, which has never let me down. But I've got a few Corona Gorda's to try. I just need to make it a point to be my first stick of the day so that my pallet is fresh. I have yet to smoke a Viaje that I didn't like.

Huy...if there's anybody that doesn't appreciate the Viaje's you give them, feel free to send them to me...

All of the ones I have, you have and a BOX more

I'm with Steve on Viaje, just not impressed with any so far. Even the highly touted Lancero Platino. No focus to flavors.

Huy that Mofo has everything doesn't he!

I'd love to make it up
to his place to see his stash one day!

WOW!!! I have been impressed by all of their sticks.

Holiday Blend (easily my favorite Viaje)
Exclusivo (least favorite, but was still a good stick)
50/50
Oro
Reserva
Platino
Skull N Bones Daisy Cutter
Summerfest
TNT

Have enjoyed ALL of them...and I am very hard to steer clear of maduros.

More for you, then... Different palates and all that.

It's like you have a spy telling you what I have before I even have it...

I don't have anywhere near what ever it is you think I have. But what I've got, is for the purpose of sharing with others when I'm fortunate enough to be able to share a smoke with them. Come on up up anytime Excel. Mi humidor es su humidor...

Ohhhhhh, that's gonna leave a mark.

07-11-2010, 07:26 PM

Picked up two 50/50's yesterday... looking forward to giving them a try.

bigdix · 07-15-2010, 06:16 AM

Thanks for the review...glad I read so many good comments on it AFTER I just ordered 5 to try out

Can't wait to give one a try....shame is I'm stationed in Okinawa Japan...so no good shops here. Either fakes, terribly overpriced, or poorly stored. On the other hand, the mailman always makes his way

bigdix · 07-20-2010, 04:57 AM

Ok...so just smoked the first one. Pretty good little cigar, albeit a bit weird. Huy was on point about the halfway...the ash, the burn, everything changed. Couldn't have been that weird, I nub'd it.

Nice Review! I Have Some Resting, Need To Dig Them Out!
