Each Honey & Hand Grenades cigar starts with natural tobacco sweetness and subtle floral notes, quickly revealing undertones of oak amid a creamy, pepper-laced profile. The peppery spice ramps up throughout the experience, evolving from medium in strength to medium-full by the second half. You’ll savor a luscious harmony between savory and sweet, accented by excellent burn performance and a firm, cool nub every time.

This release is meticulously crafted to Viaje founder Andre Farkas’ high standards, where blending and shape design are labors of love—the whimsical naming and signature red foil symbolize a “blade that gets red” after use. Fans of the line and ambitious newcomers both will appreciate the two-hour journey for its layered flavors, honest craftsmanship, and unmistakable Viaje flair.
