The Plasencia family has been growing tobacco for five generations now. They own three major factories in Nicaragua and make brands for several cigar companies under contract. The Alma Fuerte Cigar represents the Plasencia's first major push to get their own brand into the market and their name known throughout the world. The Plasencia Alma Fuerte cigar is a medium-tasting beauty that is hand rolled in a Nicaraguan cigar factory and crafted with Criollo '98 tobacco from Condega, Jalapa, Esteli and Ometepe. Each box comes with a very interesting design - once you remove the top of the box, you can flip it around and the first thing you see is a branded pewter plate surrounded by four deep grooves to hold your cigar. There are 4 more lines of Alma cigars planning to come out - make sure you grab a box of Plasencia Alma Fuerte to add to your collection today!

I have come to believe the most powerful people in the cigar business are the tobacco growers.

Even amongst the cigar manufacturers, the ones that have risen to the very top seem to all have one thing in common: a massive tobacco growing operation behind them.

So there is Plasencia.

It’s a name that, despite its real lack of retail presence, many consumers are probably familiar with. It’s not fair to say the family—which grows tobacco and manufacturers cigars in both Honduras and Nicaragua—has not had its name on a cigar; it has. However, in the last year the family has show a newfound interest in selling its own cigars.

Plasencia grows tobacco and makes cigars for an extremely long list of companies. Its most noted client is Rocky Patel Premium Cigars, which has many of its cigars made in a Plasencia factory in Honduras. But there are others including Altadis U.S.A., Nat Sherman and Quesada as well as smaller brands like 1502, Crux and Regius.

Last year, two new brands emerged from Plasencia family members. One is Cigar Golf Club, a brand of cigars centered around golf that is headed by Alexandria Plasencia. The other is Alma Fuerte, a high-priced Nicaraguan puro offered in three sizes.

Alma Fuerte uses a wrapper from Jalapa, a Nicaraguan binder and fillers from Condega, Estelí, Jalapa and Ometepe.

Much like it has done with the Casa Magna Domus Magnus II, the Sixto ii features a unique size, this time a six-sided cigar that resembles a honeycomb.

Once empty, the 10-count boxes turn into an ashtray.
