Viaje launches Mystery Box, a surprise box of ten cigars

American manufacturer Viaje, run by Andre Farkas, has launched an unusual project: the Viaje Mystery Box, a box of ten cigars, all 6 x 54 toros, whose exact contents remain secret until opened.

The company says the cigars inside are shapes and sizes released before, but exclusive to this project — some never released in any form. Every cigar is banded so smokers know what they’re lighting, but the boxes are wrapped in tamper-evident paper, meant to be sold intact and not cherry-picked in-store.

There are four rarity tiers — Common, Rare, Rare, and the highly coveted „God Box” — with the company not disclosing how many boxes of each tier were produced. The suggested price is USD 150 per box, and the project has been in the works for more than a year.

Arturo Fuente ships OpusX ReXilent, a cigar marking 25 years since 9/11

Arturo Fuente has begun shipping the Fuente Fuente OpusX ReXilent to retailers, a cigar first shown at the PCA 2026 trade show. Carlito Fuente designed the release as a tribute to the victims and heroes of the 11 September 2001 attacks, with 2026 marking the 25th anniversary of the tragedy.
