Viaje One of One Preferred Retailer Sampler

Viaje One of One Preferred Retailer Sampler

Viaje One of One Preferred Retailer Sampler represents the pinnacle of limited-edition cigar artistry from Andre Farkas, founder of Viaje Cigars and master of ultra-small-batch releases. This exclusive three-cigar sampler features one each of Outer Edge Grand Robusto (5 1/4 x 54), Tailwind Perfecto (6 3/4 x 52), and Bulwark Double Torpedo (6 x 56), with fewer than 200 boxes of each vitola produced. True to Viaje’s reputation for one-time releases, these blends will never be rolled again, making each cigar a singular expression of craftsmanship honoring the time-honored tradition of hand-rolling premium tobacco. For collectors and enthusiasts who chase Viaje’s most coveted releases, this sampler offers the rare opportunity to experience three distinct figurado formats in one essential package.

Viaje Philosophy

Andre Farkas founded Viaje in 2007 with one revolutionary goal: produce only small-batch, limited-production cigars with no core lines or year-round regulars. This philosophy creates constant anticipation among enthusiasts who know that missing a Viaje release means losing it forever. Farkas embraces scarcity as an artistic principle, treating each blend as a unique moment captured in tobacco rather than a commodity to be reproduced indefinitely. The One of One series epitomizes this approach, with the name itself declaring the singular nature of these creations.

The commitment to never repeating blends transforms Viaje releases into collectible experiences rather than mere products. Enthusiasts who secure One of One samplers possess something that cannot be replicated or restocked, making these cigars as much investment as an indulgence. This scarcity creates secondary markets where sold-out Viaje releases command premiums, rewarding those who recognize quality and act quickly when new shipments arrive.

Craftsmanship & Heritage

Each One of One cigar celebrates the time-honored tradition of hand-rolling, where selecting tobacco, bunching filler, applying binder, and wrapping the final leaf requires skill passed through generations. The three figurado formats—grand robusto, perfecto, and double torpedo—demand greater expertise than straight-sided vitolas, as tapered heads and feet require precise rolling to maintain proper structure and draw. Master torcedores at Aganorsa Leaf bring decades of experience to these complex shapes, ensuring each cigar performs flawlessly despite the challenging construction.

The choice of figurados honors cigar history, when skilled artisans demonstrated mastery through elaborate shapes rather than uniform cylinders. Perfectos and torpedoes defined luxury smoking in the 19th and early 20th centuries, requiring time and technique that modern mass production often cannot afford. By reviving these formats in limited quantities, Viaje connects contemporary enthusiasts to tobacco’s artisan roots while delivering the bold Nicaraguan character that defines the brand.

Aganorsa Leaf Excellence

Production at Aganorsa Leaf ensures access to some of Nicaragua’s finest estate-grown tobaccos, including Corojo 99 and Criollo leaves cultivated in volcanic soil. The factory’s commitment to vertical integration—controlling cultivation, fermentation, aging, and rolling—guarantees consistency and quality from seed to ash. Previous Viaje releases from Aganorsa demonstrate full-bodied profiles with layered complexity, suggesting One of One will deliver the intensity and refinement enthusiasts expect from this partnership.
