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.

YEAR OF THE HORSE

The limited-edition, single size is aptly named Parejo Gordo, and it measures 7 inches by 58 ring gauge. What makes it distinct is the long, braided tail extending from the cap. Each cigar is topped with a long piece of braided tobacco that resembles a horse’s plaited (or braided) mane or tail. According to the company, making the braid is an elaborate process that involves a third roller just to make this particular cap properly.

“The process requires twice the time of a standard cigar and precision humidity control to maintain the cap’s structural integrity,” says Nestor Andrés Plasencia, fifth-generation owner of Plasencia Cigars. “Each braid is sealed with a dual pañuelo [handkerchief] wrap, preserving the integrity of this heirloom-quality finish.”

Every cigar consists of a Nicaraguan wrapper grown organically in Jalapa, Nicaraguan binder and filler blend of Honduran and Nicaraguan tobacco. All the tobacco was grown and aged by the Plasencia family.
