Plasencia has long made cigars for other companies, but in 2017 they stepped into the limelight with their own brand. Alma Fuerte translates from Spanish to Strong Soul, which encapsulates what Nicaraguan tobacco is about. The blend is all Nicaraguan, mostly Criollo 98, but grown in Esteli, Condega, Jalapa, and Ometepe; the wrapper and binder are from Jalapa.

The cigar opens with cedar flavours, some floral notes, and pepper that soon fades. Black coffee comes to the front as you go down with leather adding to the mix. This is a complex blend but oh so smooth and satisfying.

For their first own brand, Plasencia have done an excellent job.

Ava J. ★★★★★

Box-pressed and cut perfectly, each cigar lights evenly and burns slow enough to savor past the halfway point. I’ve had a few estate blends that turn harsh at the end, but this one stayed smooth to the nub.

Jason ★★★★★

I’m not a fan of loose draws, but these box-pressed robustos have just the right resistance—burns even and slow without ever going out. The deep, earthy notes from start to finish really live up to that “strong soul” name.

Amelia ★★★★★

The box-pressed shape holds its ash like a champ, which I honestly didn't expect from a robusto. The smoke itself is rich and bold from the first third to the last, and the Nicaraguan tobacco really lives up to that "Strong Soul" name. I've already got my eye on another box.
