The farmer series from Viaje is my favorite that gets released. I’m glad the Andre came back. The Andre is has tasting note of creamy chocolate, cedar, earth with a touch of spice on the retro. The zombie is more so in the same vein, but takes you through all types of baking spices like cinnamon and nutmeg, but has an underlying sweetness and nutty almond like finish that reminds me of a good amaretto. If you ever find them in the wild I’d grab them cause you never know when they’ll come back

I love everything viaje puts out. The only drawback is that a lot of it is super limited so you can’t always get your hands on a bunch. Both these sticks were delicious.
Zombie Farmhand Andre
Really like the box press on this. Provides a nice feel to the cigar. Right away from this I get cedar, nuttiness and an almost sweetness in the form of brown sugar. There is some pepper that creeps into the cigar as you progress. The profile I would put it at is medium…. Which throws me for a loop as viaje usually gives me more full profiles.
Farmhand Andre
I usually don’t go for Churchill vitolas but I’m totally willing to make an exception here. Right away I get earth, cocoa and leather. The finish on this has a certain creaminess to it. There is a slight pepper to this as well and I do get sweet raisin note that comes into play.
Both these cigars were excellent and was very glad to them. I love when oxford gets these samplers from viaje because I know I will get them at a great price.
