The original Viaje Hamaki debuted in 2017 as part of Viaje’s White Label Project and was crafted as a true Dominican puro by Quesada Cigars. “Hamaki,” the Japanese word for cigar, reflects founder Andre Farkas’s inspiration from Japanese culture—emphasizing simplicity, precision, and elegance. This release was a departure from Viaje’s usual Nicaraguan-heavy portfolio, showcasing Dominican tobaccos in a bold, refined format.
Expect a medium to full-bodied profile with notes of cedar, roasted coffee, sweet spice, leather, and toasted nuts. The torpedo shape concentrates flavor and enhances draw, while the Dominican blend delivers smooth transitions and a clean finish. This original Dominican puro is prized by collectors for its rarity and unique origin within the Viaje lineup.
