Our Humidor — Featured Brand
Viaje. The Journey.
Ultra-limited. Fiercely sought. When Viaje drops, collectors move fast — because once they're gone, they're gone.
A Journey in Every Cigar
Founded in 2007 by Andre Farkas, Viaje — Spanish for “journey” — has built one of the most devoted followings in the cigar world. Based in Birmingham, Alabama, with cigars crafted in Honduras and Nicaragua, Viaje is not a brand that plays by industry rules.
Andre personally oversees every blend. Production runs are deliberately small — extremely limited batches released seasonally or on occasion, building collector demand that borders on obsession. There are no year-round staples sitting on shelves. When a Viaje release drops, it sells out within days. Sometimes hours.
This is a brand built on scarcity, quality, and the thrill of the hunt. Every release tells a story. Every cigar is a moment you won't get back.
Viaje Key Lines and Releases
01
Honey & Hand Grenades
The iconic line. The Shiv, The Rapier, The Daisy Cutter — sweet honey, dark chocolate, and a pepper bomb finish.
02
Skull and Bones
Mysterious seasonal releases with dark, powerful blends. Each release is a one-time event — no repeats, no restocks.
03
Zombie
The Halloween-season annual release. Green band, full body, cult collector favorite. A seasonal ritual for Viaje fans.
04
Holiday Blend
Annual release, holiday-season collector favorite. Rich, complex, and always worth the wait.
05
Exclusivo
The core line. Full Nicaraguan tobacco, full-bodied, bold — the closest thing Viaje has to a regular release.
06
White Label Project
WLP — experimental, small-batch blends. Andre's testing ground for new ideas. If you see it, grab it.
07
Birthday Blend
A personal celebration release from Andre. Limited, personal, and always something special.
08
Farmhand Andre
Andre's personal blend. As close as you can get to smoking what the man himself reaches for.
“When they're gone, they're gone. That's not marketing — that's the reality of Viaje.”
— The Viaje Philosophy
Tasting Profile
Bold. Complex. Unapologetic.
Viaje cigars are full-bodied across most lines, with layered complexity that rewards patience. No two releases are alike — each blend has its own character, its own story.
Signature Profile
Core Character
Bold pepper on the open, rich earth and leather through the body, dark fruit sweetness and baking spice on the finish. Full-bodied, full-flavored, built for experienced palates.
Honey & Hand Grenades
Sweet Meets Heat
Sweet honey and dark chocolate up front, building into a pepper bomb that intensifies through the final third. The contrast between sweet and spice is what makes this line legendary.
The Experience
Layered Complexity
Every Viaje cigar is a journey — flavors shift and evolve from first light to nub. Complex, layered smoking experiences that keep you engaged and coming back for more.
