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.

What a cigar! The biggest and most expensive cigar I’ve bought and smoked so far (a wee treat for myself). It’s definitely not a ‘novelty’ cigar at all. I have a large cigar cutter so it cut easily enough, It lights easily enough and from the first draw you can taste the quality of this one. Quite ‘rich’ and peppery and if I’m honest it’s slightly stronger than my usual choice of cigar but it burns well, didn’t need ‘touched up’ at all and it lasts a long time as you’d imagine. Due to the price it’s not the kind of cigar I will have very often but I would definitely recommend this to the cigar lover. If you’ve not tried this cigar and like to sample lots of different brands then I’d recommend you add this one to your list and enjoy it when you’ve got a couple of hours to yourself.

I Am generally a smoker of Siglo 2 and 3 Cohibas and trinidad reyes - beautiful cigars - but ordered 5 of these lovely things - smoked one, stored 4 and ordered another 5 - really nice with a single malt !!!!

What can I say, very good little cigar construction is great, the draw was perfect first third was smooth and woody but it ramps up with some slight pepper in the middle and finished off with a hint of leather punching way above its price point will be ordering again that is for sure ! Smoke time around 40 mins I like to savour the draw ! Thanks Cgars !!

A truly excellent blend, chocolate, leather, coffee and cashew nuts,...perfect draw and very long lasting. No harshness or hot nub and very very smooth. One of the best cigars I have smoked.

A really nice smoke! Couldnt get a lot of smoke from the first third from my puffs but i really enjoyed this cigar. I am not one for describing flavours, i just know it tasted nice, worth the money and lasts longer than the 30 minutes stated in the description, i was close to 50m.
