Description
The Casa Magna Domus Magnus II Primus is a 6 1/2 x 55 toro built entirely from Nicaraguan tobacco, finished in a sun grown Jalapa wrapper harvested in 2007. Quesada Cigars brings it to market under the Casa Magna name, and halfwheel says Plasencia Cigars S.A. produces the brand in Estelí.
What It Tastes Like
Independent write-ups of the Primus itself are absent, so the nearest guide is Cigar Coop’s May 2013 look at the shorter Optimus, same blend. That reviewer led with candy-like citrus over chocolate and red pepper, with faint caramel and pepper building late. Cigar Coop rated strength medium rising to medium-full; our listing says medium.
Who It’s For
- Unhurried toro smokers who enjoy a long 55 ring.
- Puro collectors curious how a single Nicaraguan crop year shapes a wrapper.
- Fans of the original Domus Magnus who want to try the follow-up blend on a newer wrapper crop.

About the Domus Magnus Line
Domus Magnus debuted in 2011 as an all-Nicaraguan follow-up to the core Casa Magna range, a project Cigar Aficionado credits to Manuel Quesada and Nestor Plasencia. Cigar Coop reports the II reached shops in late April 2013, keeping a similar recipe but switching to Jalapa wrapper from another harvest.
