Plasencia Reserva Original released in The Netherlands

Plasencia Reserva Original is released in The Netherlands. A few weeks ago Plasencia and their distributor in The Netherlands quietly released the Plasencia Reserva Original in two vitolas on the Dutch market. The robusto for €6,50 and the toro for €7,50 a cigar.

The Plasencia Reserva Original is a Nicaraguan puro, which means all tobacco comes from Nicaragua. It is a medium-bodied, smooth cigar that comes in seven vitolas. Now the robusto and the toro are available for every shop to carry, the other five vitolas are exclusive for Cigaragua. Cigaragua is the world’s first and so far only ‘all Nicaraguan, only Nicaraguan’ cigar shop in the world and located at the museum district of Amsterdam.

Reserva Original

Plasencia Reserva Original has the very same taste that captivated the Europeans more than five centuries ago when they arrived in the New World. It features notes of nuts, fruits, and caramel with delicate nuances of marzipan and final hints of cedar. To achieve this, Plasencia had to go all organic. But legislation prevents the company to promote the cigars as organic. That’s why the name changed from Reserva Organica to Reserva Original.

Nestor Andres Plasencia is a curious man. He wanted to taste what his ancestors tasted. So on a plot at one of the family farms, he went all organic. Like in the old days, when artificial fertilizer and pesticides weren’t around. Organic tobacco. That experiment led to the Plasencia Reserva Original. And now the Plasencia Reserva Original is released in The Netherlands.
