The smaller secondary band simply says “Skull and Bones” in a very retro/piratesque typeface. The band is a pirate looking, almost warning label black and white skull and cross bones. The cigar is extremely firm, not dry, but packed tight and hard as a rock. The body fills into a seamless, round triple cap.
#Viaje skull and bones full
The foot leads into a toothy, meaty body full of tons of random larger veins running all throughout the body. The tobacco is carefully folded over the foot of the cigar to conceal most, if not all of the filler tobacco.
The color is very consistent and start with a folded over almost leather looking foot. Starting with the extremely dark brown, almost black looking wrapper. Prelight: The Skull and Bones is a very mean looking stick. Size: 4.5 x 54 – Wrapper: Sun Grown Criollo – Binder/Filler: Nicaraguan – Body: Full These things are pretty limited and run about $12 a stick. The Skull and Bones has a Sun Grown Criollo wrapper bound around an all Nicaraguan filler and binder. Basically the Skull and Bones was Viaje’s answer to all the folks who lived thier cigars but wanted a bolder, fuller experience. I didn’t get a chance to try that one as Viaje is almost unheard of in these parts. This vitola, the Skull and Bones #2 is the second in the line proceeding Viaje’s first release of the Daisy Cutter which was a pettit robusto. I have had quite a few different Viaje blends but this is my first time trying out the limited Skull and Bones Blend.
The Good Stuff: I know almost nothing about this cigar. This week’s review is of the elusive, and extremely popular Viaje Skull and Bones.
