Went to a hole in the wall B&M near Pittsburgh. Found a sealed box of Viaje Honey & Hand Granades, 7 Perdomo Ed De Silvio Maduro Robustos and a 5er of the Viaje 5th w/ the white band. Guy hooked me up purdy damn good at $358.00 OTD. I think I found my new honey pot!!!

crap...I put this in the wrong forum...sorry.#-o

$358......for WHAT????????? Sounds to me like he saw you coming.

As for the wrong forum...........only if you're not going to pass this crap(except the Perdomo's but I find the naturals to be much more tasty and complex)around.

I figured some of you might have that reaction to the Viaje's and that's fine...no hard feelings. Fact of the matter is though, I still like Viaje. The older stuff is better than current, yes, but when I had my 1st HHG I was impressed and hunted for a box. There were non to be found online and I stumbled onto a B&M who actually sold them.
There has been a lot of Viaje bashing lately but there has to be someone else besides me who still likes them. In fact I know there is due to the fact I can't find Viaje anywhere online🇨🇮

Nice find!

Fact is there's a reason you can't find any Viaje boxes online it's because they have a huge fan base me being one of the Viaje fan boys I Really enjoyed the H&Hs I had one The other day that was pretty darn tasty...

how much did you pay for the box and how do they retail for?

I like some Viajes, but availability and consistency are important to me. I will never buy a box of any Viajes, but I try some here and there.


You're happy and that's all that matters!

I love finding those places!!!
Great find brother!!!!

The open box he had was priced at $9.40 per stick which would come to $235 for the box. He gave me a discount as I was buying a box and I got it for $209.50. He had the Perdomo Ed De Silvio marked at $17.50. I asked what he could do on them if I bought the remanding 7 and he gave them to me for $14.50 per. The Viaje 5th 5er was $47 down from should have been $67.

I think I got a decent deal. The retail prices are darn close to another site that is out of stock on all of these.

good deal to me and i always like walking into a store and coming across viajes as well. that doesnt happen everyday

Nice find kcramer- enjoy!!

If any of you have smoked a Zombie then you have had that WOW factor in a Viaje cigar...that cigar is amazing... This doesn't really have anything to do with this post but it just had me thinking about how great those cigars are... LOL!

Um correct me if I'm wrong. But the Zombie is the Plantino blend in a different size as a shpo exclusive.

I'm not actually sure about the Details, but they taste nothing alike to be honest they have two completely different flavor profiles to my tasting but I gotta look threw my notes to make sure...

Think I might know that B&M? On Route 51? Owner's name is Steve?
Nice find. Nice little Shoppe.

I've had the platino and it was good as well as friends and family. It's just real hit and miss with viaje. I have a shpo that sells EVERYONE of them.
Some I hate and some are great. It's very inconsistent in that way but the ones that are good are good and that's all that matters.

Cac...that's the one. I live in Morgantown wv so it's a good drive for me but I'll be a regular customer there for sure.

Viaje's are over rated and over priced, but it's like anything else..if there is a market and people are willing to
pay...then...well, i don't blame them for charging what they charge. just like LP and TATs.

That being said, the Reserva VOR is worth what they ask....JMHO.

I agree Tatuaje and LP are the same exact boat they all hit and miss not every blend is gonna good... dang to be honest I only like one cigar from the Unico line from LP, I will admit though that Tatuaje is probably the most consistent of them all...

What's for trade here?

Haha!
