Oveja Negra Brands has announced that the Black Label Trading Company Last Rites Viaticum, a small batch off-shoot of the Last Rites blend is now available.
“Last Rites has always been a special cigar to me. To celebrate our sixth anniversary, I wanted to do a Special Edition of the Last Rites. The Viaticum is an evolution of the Last Rites blend. It uses most of the same tobaccos but in different proportions and primings. It’s rich, dark and elegant just like Nicaraguan tobacco. We also box-pressed the cigar like the original 2013 release,” says James Brown, creator of Black Label Trading Company and partner of Fabrica Oveja Negra in a press release.
Last Rites Viaticum uses most of the same core tobaccos as the core Last Rites blend, but with different proportions. It is available in one size – a 5 x 54 box-pressed Robusto priced at $15.00 per cigar.

The cigar is a very dark brown and nicely box pressed.
The test draw after cutting the cap was good. The initial flavors at light up were a sweet cedar, brown sugar, nutmeg, leather, mocha, and black coffee. There was abundant black pepper rated at an 8. Nice, powerful tasting start.



Overall Score: 95
