About this cigar
Viaje's Fifteen Plus Two And A Half stands as one of the brand's most sought-after limited releases, a blend that rewards patience and serious smokers. The Gold Unit designation signals exceptional quality control and consistency, with fifty-two ring gauge Toro vitolas that balance complexity with accessibility. Viaje founder Andre Farkas has built his reputation on bold flavor architecture and impeccable tobacco selection, and this release exemplifies both. The blend layers Nicaraguan and Dominican fillers beneath a Habano wrapper, yielding a medium-plus smoke with distinct peppery spice, subtle cedar, and hints of dark chocolate that emerge as the cigar settles into its final third. This is not a cigar for the novice. From the first light, the Habano wrapper announces itself with a peppery snap that gradually mellows into woody undertones and leather. The construction is immaculate, with a draw that never wavers across the seventy-plus minute journey. The sweetness you might expect builds gradually, revealing caramel notes against the dominant tobacco character. For your lounge or retail humidor, the Fifteen Plus Two And A Half Gold Unit delivers the kind of conversation piece that serious collectors actively seek. A box of twenty-five positions you to attract the discriminating customer who views each purchase as an event rather than a transaction.
