Plasencia Cosecha 149 La Vega
Produced from the 2014 harvest, this cigar is the second in the "Cosecha" series.
Renowned for its exceptional craftsmanship, delivering comforting flavours combined with a strong character, this module is the first Honduran puro from the Plasencia family.
To get the most out of the tasting experience, a punch glass is recommended, as it guarantees maximum concentration of aromas.
Tasting menu
Notes
When cold, the cape reveals warm notes of damp earth and cocoa nibs, but when lit, aromas of wood, bark and undergrowth are revealed, giving it a very rich start.
In the first third, a sensation of freshly ground coffee predominates, accompanied by dense smoke and compact, streaked ash.
In the second third, hints of earth and coffee grounds emerge, gaining intensity with toasted notes.
The final third reveals a full-bodied Italian espresso, enhanced with cocoa flavours. The tasting experience is further enriched by subtle notes of leather and myrrh, complemented by resinous fragrances.
Warm and intoxicating, we recommend savouring it slowly.
Throughout this experience, its woody and warm characteristics are reminiscent of Le Galion's "222" fragrance.
About Plasencia
It was in 1865 that Don Eduardo Plasencia arrived on the island of Cuba with a single goal in mind: success. He soon had the opportunity to establish 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 prevented them from continuing their work and confiscated their farms.
It was then time to expand into Mexico and later Nicaragua in 1965. Once again, the family had to relocate to Honduras following the Sandinista revolution.
1987 marked a turning point for the family, as it was in that year that they officially entered the cigar world by manufacturing their own vitolas.
Once solely tobacco growers for other companies, they are now among the leading figures in the cigar industry, having offered exceptional cigars for over 35 years.
Still owning fields in various Latin American countries, it continues to supply its tobacco to other cigar producers. This control over the production chain, from seed to cigar, enables it to guarantee impeccable quality across its entire range of cigars.
