Detailed Description
Plasencia Cosecha 149 stands as a testament to almost 150 years of tobacco mastery. “Cosecha” meaning “harvest,” this special release marks the family’s 149th tobacco crop and utilizes tobaccos aged for a decade. A rare Honduran puro, every leaf—from the bright wrapper to the earthy filler—comes from the country’s most prestigious growing regions. The result is a cigar with creamy smoke, chewy texture, and harmonious flavors of chocolate, coffee, nuts, fruit, and subtle bready undertones. Well-balanced baking spices, cedar, and touches of aged leather provide lingering complexity.
Reviewers praise the Cosecha 149 for its consistently pleasing construction, approachable strength, and the legacy weight it carries. The Cortez size, in particular, draws acclaim for maximizing the blend’s creaminess and flavor developments. This cigar is as much a piece of cigar history as it is a sophisticated companion for any aficionado, whether you’re celebrating a special moment or enjoying a daily luxury.

Grabbed a box in Cortez and the blend absolutely shined. Creamy, chewy smoke and a ton of great flavors. Chocolate, coffee, fruit, nuts, and bready undertones. I usually don’t like large ring gauge cigars but the Cortez is slowly becoming my favorite size in Plasencia sticks.

This eas a fine smoke flavor wise, but the draw was pretty bad in the sample I had. I’ll probably grab another, Plascencia very rarely has construction issues.
