  • Plasencia Cigars Announces El Año del Caballo

    EL AÑO DEL CABALLO – THE YEAR OF THE HORSE EDITION.

    Drawing on 160 years of family tobacco legacy, this limited release
    honors the symbolic elegance of the horse while redefining
    the art of premium cigar construction.

    The centerpiece of the Parejo Gordo (7x 58) vitola is its signature
    horse-braid cap, a rare artisanal flourish executed by a trio of expert
    craftsmen: a master buncher, braider, and roller.

    The process requires twice the time of a standard cigar and precision humidity control to maintain the cap’s structural integrity. Each braid is sealed with a dual pañuelo wrap, preserving the integrity of this heirloom-quality finish.

    The tasting journey evokes the horse’s dynamic spirit – beginning with a graceful touch of creamy cacao and soft florals, evolving into toasted woods and subtle spice, and finishing with a long resonance of roasted nuts and sun-dried raisins. Each draw embodies the balance of power and elegance that defines the Plasencia legacy.
