I hear they are the greatest thing since sucking coffee beans out of a civet cat's butt, but I never see them for sale anywhere.

To be honest, i've even grown tired of chasing them all. Just too damn many....and that's coming from someone whose been a fan of most everything they've released.
Final straw for me was the "LE" release of the regular Platino and Oro blends, yet simply in different vitolas and at a significantly higher price point. So, you're basically paying far too much for a different vitola on blend/line that's readily available, and that's BS IMO.
One reason there aren't very many retailers for Viaje is that they don't use reps... Retailers must pretty much seek them out and for the local around here at least, that is a turn off...
I have been after them for months to bring in Viaje to no avail...
I would agree with Kyle save for one minor thing... Vitola differences do change the taste because of wrapper ratios...

Hey...I never said they tasted the same....LOL! Tj did send me 2 Oro Fernandos that I am curious to try. And it does depend on the retailer it looks like, as far as cost. Just checked the price on the Fernandos, and they're in line (sorda) w/ the other Oro product. It's just that you can get the Oro cheaper elsewhere...with the exception of the Fernando that is. IIRC the Samurai was also quite a bit higher than what you could get the regular Platino blends for.
I dunno...just tired of chasing cigars.
Maybe thats how you know when you're not a noob anymore?? 🤔 (nah)...
I had one once, might have just been an off day but I cant say that my one and only Viaje made me a big fan. I know these sticks get alot of fuss and I wish I could say why but I was not on the band wagon after my first smoke. Have had better and I have had worse. I am sure I need to try another but I am not in an hurry...

It sucks. I'm pretty much over the hype as well. If something falls in my lap, I'll buy them. Otherwise I'm not chasing them.
I'm going to go out and say that I was one of the early adopters of Viaje and I got several of the first stuff when you could still get it fairly easily. Got a jar of the exclusivos, a box of the chiquitos, box of the original S&b, etc.
The Exclusivo jar relase is one of the best out there. As well as the original S&B.
The most overrated cigars of all time!

Satori.....This one has a little potential to age well, the 3 I smoked tasted green.
Yet to try either 50/50, might this weekend.
