Description

The Plasencia Alma Fuerte Robustus I is a rich, medium-to-full-bodied, Nicaraguan puro that embodies over five generations of Plasencia family tobacco expertise. Measuring a classic robusto size of 5.25 x 52 and distinguished by its elegant box-pressed shape, this cigar is crafted entirely from Nicaraguan Criollo ’98 seed tobaccos. The blend utilizes exceptionally aged leaves—some up to nine or ten years—sourced from the premier growing regions of Estelí, Condega, Jalapa, and Ometepe.

The flavor profile is a bold symphony of complexity, delivering rich notes of dark chocolate, espresso, and earth, beautifully balanced by a subtle sweetness (hints of plum, cinnamon, and molasses) and the warmth of cedar and black pepper. Its impeccable construction ensures an even burn, perfect draw, and a full, satisfying finish, making it a favorite among aficionados. It was notably recognized as Cigar Journal’s #1 Cigar of the Year in 2020 and earned a 91-point rating from Cigar Aficionado.
