Plasencia Cigars is Adding a Second Size to the Alma Fuerte Colorado Claro Line

The Eduardo I will join the Sixto I and is a 6½x54 box-pressed toro. The new Eduardo I is named after Nestor’s ancestor Eduardo Plasencia. Eduardo was the first of the Plasencias to grow tobacco, doing so when he moved from the Canary Islands to Cuba in 1865.

“It is important for us to continue to acknowledge our family history and use them as inspiration as we go forward,” states Plasencia. “Eduardo Plasencia took a major risk by crossing the Atlantic Ocean to start farming tobacco in a faraway land. Without him, there would be no Plasencia tobacco family.”
