First Impressions: Primera de Honduras

Written by Walt in Cigars

Primera de Honduras by Casa Gomez Cigars

As per the request of Johnny, this week I decided to take a quick detour from my tour of Davidoff of GenevaOpens in a new tab. products and take a look at something less expensive. The cigar this week is the Primera de Honduras and is a product of Benny Gomez Jr. I was introduced to Benny at the Casa GomezOpens in a new tab. booth at IPCPR in Las VegasOpens in a new tab. this past July.

While this isn’t exactly what Johnny was looking for, it was one of the first sticks that I a came across from my IPCPR haul and decided to fire it up.

The Positive:

  • Very interesting red pepper like heat
  • Solid burning characteristics
  • Comfortable price point at around $3.00 per single

The Negative:

  • Too much of a good thing in regards to a red pepper heat
  • Levels of flavor and body seemed a little mismatched
  • Unable to capture my attention

My name is Walt White and I've been riding motorcycles on and off since my early twenties. After more than a decade away from the sport, I came back - and I've been making up for lost time ever since. Based in Southeast Pennsylvania, I write and create videos about real motorcycle ownership: the bikes I ride, the gear I test, the roads I explore, and the community I've found along the way. I ride a 2022 Yamaha MT-09 SP and a 2023 Kawasaki Ninja 400, and I try to give you the honest take you'd get from a friend rather than a press release. I'm also a husband, dad to three girls, and a pitbull owner - which keeps life interesting off the bike too.

  1. Ugh, I hate spicy foods. I know not to add this one to my list of ones to try!!

    I also hate when a cigar is that bad that you dont even feel like smoking another one, any kind, any flavor, sometimes till the next day!

    Keep the heat and give me flavor!!
