Viaje Teases Full Moon 2015
It looks like Viaje will have another shipment arriving at retailers before Halloween, as brand owner Andre Farkas has begun teasing what appears to be the release of Full Moon 2015.
The company declined to provide any details about the cigar when asked for comment, and no details have been posted in the comments on either the Instagram or Facebook posts announcing the cigar.
The Viaje Full Moon line made its debut in October 2013, a Halloween-themed cigar in a 5 x 58 robusto gordo vitola using a Nicaraguan Corojo wrapper with Nicaraguan binder and filler. Both the 2013 and 2014 versions were priced at $11.42 per cigar, with 400 bundles of 24 cigars shipped in the debut release and an undisclosed amount produced for the follow-up. Both releases were presented in circular, orange and black boxes that are some of the company’s more elaborate presentations. The cigars also featured two bands that featuring half a pumpkin design, one reading Viaje and the other Full Moon, which could be put together to reveal a panoramic scene.
One notable change for the 2015 release is the addition of the silver and red Edición Limitada band, which has also graced 2011’s V.O.R. DT and V.P.R. DT, 2012’s Satori, 2013’s Skull and Bones Big Ivan, 2014’s Skull and Bones Cloudmaker.

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, the G-League's Valley Suns, 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.
