PLASENCIA
Plasencia Cigars, the leading producer of premium cigars and the largest producer of tobacco in Central America, was awarded 1st 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.
Plasencias 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 DEL CIELO
Nestor Plasencia offers yet another treat for the senses with Alma del Cielo, a distinctive and refined creation. This Nicaraguan puro features filler tobaccos grown at 3,500 feet on the Finca San Julián farm, where the unique environment—marked by intense sunlight, cool mountain nights, and spring-fed fields—creates a terroir unlike the usual volcanic soils and tropical valleys typically linked to tobacco cultivation. It’s a must-try for those in search of truly unique cigar experiences or curious smokers eager to explore something new and imaginative.
Plasencia Alma Fuerte, a unique blend of Plasencia's best-aged tobaccos, grown in their highest quality soil, accentuating their bold, vibrant and intense flavours.
Laced with hints of dark chocolate, plum, and cinnamon, the taste is rounded out with finishing notes of oak and molasses.

#1 Cigar Journal's Top 25 cigars of 2020
"Pepperiness and caramel/cinnamon sweetness are a good match in this almost black box-pressed cigar. It develops cedary, nutty and coffee aromas with herbal spice. During the smoke it becomes more expressive."

91 / 100
"There's a sweet-and-salty character to this dark, oily box-pressed robusto. The draw is rich, delivering complex notes of caramel, earth and toffee underscored by touches of wood, all of which recur on the long finish."
