I have yet to smoke the 10 gauge but did score a couple and initial reports are those ares smoking just as good. In the last year I have been very choosy on what Viaje product I buy as most of it has been very green in my opinion and I waited to hear feedback on these before dropping any coin on them. I passed on the Skull and Bones just like I have the last 2 or 3 releases.

I did get it from Outland, the one at South Park. Also picked up a La Sirena. Got it resting for a bit but I'll probably smoke it soon so I can decide if I want to attend the event they have coming up. The Mermaid is coming on the 10th.

Yep, Ariel will be here for that one.

I missed out on those as they sold out too fast. In general I like to let the Viaje cigars rest a bit before I smoke them. I find they are a bit too humid ROTT and have burn issues and relighting them makes them burn a bit hot and they get a slight char bitterness.

I'd give them a few weeks and test one.

My two cents
