This is my 1st Plasencia cigar. Tasting notes for me are strong cedar, leather, slight salty earth. It gets a sweeter tones halfway through and light coffee tones. I would give it a light to medium rating for strength. I had this with Irish Powers Whisky John Lane 12 years old Edition. The Whisky overpowered this cigar.
Good points:
- Great construction and perfect burn.
- Nice big 54 gauge box pressed cigar.
Bad points:
Easy draw but not a lot of smoke compared to other box pressed cigars from Oliva, EP Carillo etc.
Not a lot of depth / change in the tasting notes as I progress through the cigar but it definitely picks up halfway through.
Not exactly to my taste but not a bad cigar. There are better tasting and more complex cigars available for the same price so I wouldn't buy another one, but I'm sure some people would love it.
