PLASENCIA
Plasencia Cigars, the leading producer of premium cigars and the largest producer of tobacco in Central America, was awarded first place in a consumer cigar blind tasting held by Manuel’s, one of the finest and most renowned cigar shops in Zürich, Switzerland. The award was conferred for its Alma del Campo Tribu cigar, one of the company's first brand-name cigars to be introduced to the market.
Plasencia's goal is to use the best leaves of aged tobacco exclusively in their cigars, leaving them in the hands of the best collaborators in the fields and artists of the factories.
ALMA FUERTE
Five blenders, including Plasencia, Sr. and Jr., worked to create the cigar from 100% Nicaraguan tobaccos for the Alma Fuerte. The blend focuses on the family’s Criollo ’98 seed, using tobaccos from each of the major growing regions of Nicaragua (Condega, Estelí, Jalapa, and Ometepe). In addition, Plasencias are using some of the rarest and most premium-grade leaves from their vast tobacco inventories.
The latest addition to this line, the Sixto I is a new option for those who enjoy this luxourious smoke but don't want the full intensity, the Sixto I is like a Cappuccino compared to the Sixto II which is more like an espresso.
The blend has been slightly tweaked for the Sixto I, and a different wrapper finishes this cigar, a Colorado Claro that takes some of the intensity.
Plasencia Alma Fuerte is a unique blend of Plasencia's best-aged tobaccos grown in the highest-quality soil, accentuating their bold and vibrant flavours.
Laced with hints of dark chocolate, plum, and cinnamon, the taste is rounded out with oak and molasses finishing notes.
