Viaje Holiday Blend 2019 Announced

Viaje Cigar Co. and at least one retailer have announced the upcoming release of the 2019 Holiday Blend.

Not much is officially known about the cigar, but one retailer is reporting it is a 5 x 54 robusto gordo that is priced at $330 for a bundle of 30 and will be shipped to them on Dec. 9.

Viaje posted an image on Friday morning that would confirm the size of the cigar and that it comes in 30-count bundles.

I strive to capture the essence of a cigar and the people behind them in my work – every cigar you light up is the culmination of the work of countless people and often represents generations of struggle and stories. For me, it’s about so much more than the cigar – it’s about the story behind it, the experience of enjoying the work of artisans and the way that a good cigar can bring people together. In addition to my work with halfwheel, I’m the public address announcer for the Colorado Rockies and Arizona Diamondbacks during spring training, as well as for the Salt River Rafters of the Arizona Fall League, the WNBA's Phoenix Mercury and previously the Arizona Rattlers of the Indoor Football League. I also work in a number of roles for Major League Baseball, plus I'm a voice over artist. Prior to joining halfwheel, I covered the Phoenix and national cigar scene for Examiner.com, and was an editor for Cigar Snob magazine.
