I enjoyed smoking this cigar. Light and creamy cigar. Cedar, leather, and white pepper at the start. Eventually spice goes away and a creamy/buttery smoke texture with small hints of sweetness. Hour and a half smoke time for me.

The Colorado Claro has a milder strength in my opinion when smoking through compared to the Alma Fuerte Generacion V, but still flavorful. The construction was solid, and the ash was creamy how I like it.

I’m not quite sure about this one. I’ve had it in the sixto, and that was one of the best cigars I’ve ever had, but had a very hard timing getting through such a big cigar. I was assuming the smaller size would be better, but this one didn’t impress me that much. It’s possible my cigar was too humid, though.

Plasencia is a favourite of mine – they can evoke flavours from tobacco that other producers can’t. Of the Plasencia I’ve had so far, I’d rank these my least-favourite, but that by no means is meant as a criticism. This is a refined, bold, ‘smooth’ (over-used as that word is) cigar. I detected few subtleties or nuances here, but given the name of ‘alma fuerte’, I did not expect any. There is cedar, baking spice, well-aged tobacco, some decent strength, and perhaps some hint of a milk chocolate (you have to look for it). At this cigar’s size (much wider than I prefer), I admit that my preference for narrower-ring gauges may come to play – it is an excellent cigar, but it lacks the uniqueness of other Plasencia cigars I believe, and thus it merits a four out of five.

I never go out of my way to smoke anything above 54rg, but this was gifted to me by a good friend. I was surprised how much I enjoyed this smoke and even ended up buying more because of it. This blend is just phenomenal, just buttery smooth with some very nice milk chocolate notes. I will smoke this again and will try the other vitolas

This is lighter than the standard Alma Fuerte, and in my opinion also better. The smoke is velvety smooth and the complexity is engaging all the way through. Highly recommend to try one.

My favorite Plasencia. Smooth with lots of transitions. Notes of almonds, cedar, cocoa, nutmeg and light spice. Extremely smooth. Would recommend and buy again.

The best 660 there is out there IMO. Not a fan of the vitola, but a huge fan of this cigar in particular.
