Plasencia Reserva Original Robusto Cigar - 1 Single
by GENEVIEVE
This cigar is very well constructed with a solid wrapper, binder and filler that all come together to make a very consistent smoke that doesnt burn too hot and offers respectable plumes of smoke. I smoked using a punch cut and got a consistent draw on it for a 60-minute smoke, no re-lighting required. Ash holds well, only departing after reaching about 1.5 inches. Not particularly flavoursome but I do generally prefer richer cigars. However, the flavour was pretty consistent and offered pleasant toasted almond, almost butter-biscuit type notes. Enjoyed it with a coffee after dinner but it could just as easily be enjoyed as a morning smoke or afternoon treat. Its a good-looking cigar so would make a great gift without breaking the bank, especially for someone new to cigar smoking who might get nic-sick from a stronger smoke.

Im pretty new to cigars, only started smoking them around 2 months ago and had maybe 20~ different sticks in that time. This is far and above my favourite thus far, it is dark and earthy, rich with subtle sweetness, black pepper and dark chocolate notes and a thick creamy smoke. Cannot recommend it highly enough.

Beautifully made, as all Peterson stuff is, however it is only any use for straight pipes. The interior has three fixed straight tubes, picture only appears to show 1, which means you cannot get three bent stem pipes in it. Three straight pipes fit with ease but the only way to get 2 bent stem pipes in is to play pipe Tetris, remove the stems and arrange the stems and bowls between the tubes until you can close the lid.
For bent pipes the Grafton hard shell case appears to be the better solution but check first.
So i either need to buy a different case or take a scalpel to the tubes and cut away the stitching holding them in.
Disappointed, text needs to say it only takes straight pipes, Petersons own website doesnt mention this fact, and the picture needs updating to show the three tubes. With these details i would not have bought this case.

Very nice cigar I love it. the draw, burn, and construction are amazing... I will make sure keeps a large number of these fancy sticks in my cigar humidors. Thank you so much C.GARS , Michelle Adler for all excellent choices and services. ✨

A great bitter forward blend. Medium, with black coffee and a distinct almond note past the middle.
Easy draw and an even burn.
Id definitely recommend.

The Plasencia Alma Del Campo Tribu Cigar is a hidden gem that I stumbled upon, and it left a lasting impression on me. The Ecuadorian Habano wrapper caught my attention, and the flavor journey that followed was a delightful surprise. With notes of cedar and leather complemented by a subtle spice, this well-constructed cigar provided a smooth and enjoyable experience that I highly recommend exploring.
