    Viaje Summerfest,,,wow
    Its rare that I share my complaints about a cigar, but I thought this cigar warranted it. Started out really good, great flavor, awesome draw/smoke nice aroma, then about halfway through the cigar turned into the stick from hell,, Tunnelled badly,, draw became horrible, I even cut off about 1/2 - 3/4 of an inch and restarted, again just terrible got a few good puffs here and there but overall the last half was extremely disappointing..From what I hear this occurs more often than not with some Viaje Blends,, man what a let down as it started off so good.

    I have been less then impressed with what ive had. The super shot is amazing, otherwise the only one I'm interested after having several is the oro reserva.

    I, too, have had a lot of problems with Viajes. They have some great marketing and very appealing cigars, but probably 2/3 of them end up disappointing, especially with burn issues. The ones that didn't disappoint were really good, but it just seems like a crap shoot sometimes.

    The Ora Reseva limited edition is very good. I was able to snag a few and I like em. As a whole, Viaje will never be a go to brand for me... they are way too expensive and overhyped. I just don't get it. I'll smoke my Zombies and OR but other than that I'm not in a hurry to drop a ton of money on a marketing scheme.

    Gran Habano 3 Siglos.
    Just got em from bandy.
    I know I should have waited and let them rest a couple days, but to be honest, I'm sure glad I didn't.

    Viaje Summerfest 2012. Started off promising. Notes of earth, cinnamon, and some sweetness upfront. Unfinished shaggy foot is a great touch. Unfortunately burn issues a plenty in the last third with slight bitterness. Will see how it fares with some time behind it.

    Did I mention how much I hate smoking cigars stored at 69rh..... Shorty tonight, pulled from the aging box since I did not want to smoke one of the 2 year old ones....nothing but problems.

    Having a Gurkha ? That a friend of mine gave me. Here's my problem, though:

    What is it? It's plenty enjoyable, smoking very nicely. But, say I wanted to revisit. No way can I figure out which one this is.
