Plasencia Reserva Original Robusto Cigar - Box of 10

Date Added: Sunday 20 March, 2022 by Christopher

With a slight oily wrapper and delicious vanilla hit on the cold draw, this cigar had promises of luxurious and complex flavours. I found this not to be the case, with the first third being overwhelmed by strong black pepper and leather, and the whole cigar having a generic woodiness that only really developed into a slight cedar note towards the very end. I had two very brief hints of coffee in the final third and I couldnt detect any of the sweetness or vanilla hints I got on the cold draw at all. What it did have in abundance was a consistent smooth smoke that was quite luxurious and the construction and burn was impeccable only requiring a one touch up to realign where the band had been (I have a theory that these huge bands are causing distortion due to imperfect humidification). Overall I wasnt disappointed by this cigar, I suppose I was just expecting a bit more in the way of flavour complexity and this was a bit two dimensional. If you enjoy a very strong wood flavour in your smoke you should give this one a try, it might be what you are looking for.

First two draws a little sharp followed by some nuttiness After that the smoke became very smooth. Would recommend.

I loved this cigar. Burned great and gave great flavour that developed perfectly throughout the smoke.

Very smooth smoke with a nice balance of nutty and sweet smoke. This cigar definitely has a prominent cocoa note, overall a very rounded smoke. Perfect for an afternoon in the garden with a large coffee. Smoked one upon delivery and will be ageing the rest to see the difference. Would recomend to any seasoned smoker and new smoker alike. Fantastic cigar.

Very smooth medium smoke, creamy with a touch of sweetness. Wood, vanilla style first two thirds developing in toffee, treacle type flavours in the final. Really solid, consistent and attractive stick. Highly recommend.
