It has very distinctive notes that reminded us of Tonka beans, a blend of spices (mainly cinnamon), animal notes (musk), a hint of vanilla and liquorice.

This Plasencia Alma Fuerte Sixto I is a real nugget. The hexagonal shape, inspired by the honeycomb, gives this cigar a unique character. The depth and complexity characteristic of the filler tobacco, aged for over 10 years, have been preserved. The Colorado Claro wrapper leaf perfectly balances this strong character with a pleasant sweetness.

A regular, dense ash perfectly illustrates the quality of this Plasencia.

In his green hexagonal box, we find a thought by the poet Rubén Dario: "Dichoso el árbol, que es apenas sensitivo, y más la piedra dura porque esa ya no siente, pues no hay dolor más grande que el dolor de ser vivo, ni mayor pesadumbre que la vida consiente". It is translated as: "Happy is the tree that feels almost nothing, and even more so the hard stone that feels nothing. There is no greater pain than being alive, nor greater heaviness than living consciously."

Tasting note

Momentum

For us, this Plasencia is a 'meditative cigar' par excellence. Everything about this experience is beautiful and interesting: the hexagonal shape, the regular wrapper, its seductive raw smell and its complex, bewitching tasting.

The cigar anecdote

The box is adorned with this quotation from the poet Rubén Dario: "Happy is the tree that feels almost nothing, and even more so the hard stone that feels nothing. There is no greater pain than being alive, no greater heaviness than living consciously."



Plasencia

In 1865, Don Eduardo Plasencia arrived on the island of Cuba with a single goal in mind: success. He soon had the opportunity to start his first tobacco plantations in the Vuelta Abajo region.

A few years later, he was joined by his nephew and exported the family's tobacco until 1963, when Cuban policy no longer allowed them to work and confiscated their farms.

It was then time to move to Mexico and Nicaragua in 1965. Then, once again, the family had to move to Honduras following the Sandinista revolution.

1987 marked a decisive turning point for the Family, as it was in this year that they officially entered the world of cigars by manufacturing their own vitolas.

Once a producer of tobaccos for other companies, it is now one of the great names in cigars, offering exceptional modules for over 35 years.

Still owning fields in various Latin American countries, it continues to supply its tobaccos to other cigar producers. This control of the production chain from seed to cigar enables it to guarantee the impeccable quality of all its cigars.
