The little boy comes in at 4 1/4 x 52 with a semi smooth blotted wrapper, it has visible veins and seams but no issues.  It's packed very well with no soft spots, and is a little bumpy with a sloppy triple cap.   The wrapper gives off a coffee and pepper note, while the cold draw doesn't give anything.   As I toast the cigar, it gives off a waxy smell like a Nica Rustica. 

First third: I'm greeted with a pretty good coffee and black pepper blast, yum.  The initial flavor I pick up is a girl scout thin mint taste.   There is also a coffee and herbaceous pepper flavor present with a little chili powder on the finish, roasted chestnut flavor is also present.   Burn is typical of Viaje, all over the place and wavy.  Draw is a little tight, but the smoke output is phenomenal.  As the first third ends, a sweetness is introduced with a faint amount of white pepper.   It's at a medium stage now but flirting really hard with medium-full. 

Midpoint - Bruce Lee appears out of nowhere and "Enters the Dragon " on my palate. This cigar is all about aggression here.   Pepper on top of pepper with a cinnamon type of spicy that destroys my face.  There is black pepper on one side and jalapeño pepper on the other side wearing my face out, also coffee and mint have come to laugh at me in the background. Their is some sweetness that tries to break up the onslaught every now and again.  Burn has improved a lot with the draw now spot on.   The smoke output is still phenomenal, and the beautiful white-gray ash finally falls off at the end of the midpoint.  This bad boy is at full assault mode and is not for the weak of heart. 

At the final third, Bruce Lee reenters the room, but I wouldn't dare tease him and ask, who's the master?   The final third, everything seems to come together very nice, the intensity goes from hells bells to a hot day in Phoenix.  Flavors are coffee, red pepper, sugary sweetness, and the jalapeño is still present and seems to be playing well with a citrus like finish. The retro is freaking awesome here, I love a good retro. Yay, the band came off easily and the mint flavor now rejoins the party.   It's the definition of full flavored.  The draw is spot on with the burn at a really good spot. The smoke output is still decent and the cigar finishes warm as it goes out.
