Viaje The Geisha Corojo 99 is a limited-production 6 3/4 x 52 perfecto handmade at the Aganorsa Leaf factory in Nicaragua. It features a Nicaraguan Corojo '99 wrapper over Nicaraguan binder and long-filler tobaccos grown by AGANORSA.
Introduced in 2022, The Geisha was created by Viaje founder Andre Farkas as a tribute to Japan and his long-standing interest in Japanese culture. The release was produced in two versions using the same Nicaraguan core: the natural Viaje The Geisha Corojo 99 and a version finished with a Mexican San Andrés Maduro wrapper.
