Viaje Circa ’45 No. 2 Nicaragua (2025)

Description

Viaje Circa ’45 No. 2 Nicaragua (2025) is a boutique small-batch release from Viaje, built in a 6″ x 54 toro extra vitola with a Nicaraguan wrapper and a traditional cap. It’s a medium-strength cigar offering a richer spin on the original Circa ’45 No. 2, with coffee, cream, hazelnut, and cedar notes.

About the Viaje Circa ’45 No. 2 Nicaragua (2025)

This 2025 release reworks the original Habano-wrapped Circa ’45 No. 2 with an all-Nicaraguan wrapper, part of Viaje’s tradition of revisiting past blends with new tobacco. The Circa ’45 line itself dates back to a 2016 release that was initially only sold in Europe before reaching American retailers.

Flavor & Smoking Profile

This Nicaragua (2025) version smokes medium in strength with coffee and cream leading the profile, joined by hazelnut, cedar, and a measured white-pepper edge. The Nicaraguan wrapper gives it a richer, more robust character than the original Habano-wrapped No. 2’s herb-and-cream profile.

What Makes This Different

This is a genuinely different blend from the original Circa 45 No. 2, despite sharing the same name and 6″ x 54 toro extra size — the wrapper switch from Habano to all-Nicaraguan tobacco shifts the flavor toward coffee and hazelnut rather than cream and herbs. Shoppers should be aware they’re choosing between two distinct versions of “No. 2.”

Who Is This Cigar Best Suited For

This cigar suits smokers who want a richer, coffee-and-hazelnut-forward take on the Circa ’45 No. 2 profile rather than the original Habano-wrapped version.
