I must first admit that generally speaking, nicaraguan tobaccos aren’t my thing. I usually find them too rough and spicy.
But that doesnt stop me from trying them from time to time. Every once in a blue moon I would find a nica cigar that I like. This however, is in my humble opinion, the best one Ive tried so far. It still have that signature nicaraguan earthy note, but also dominican creaminess. Loved every minute of it!

An awesome cigar. This has a unique flavor profile that stands out from the rest of the Plasencia Alma line. Grassy, along with hazelnut, chocolate, espresso, and caramel.

Well this was a treat. The roll is kind of rustic on these. In a good way. The wrapper has a soft velvety feel. Draw is perfect and flavours are sweet, spicy goodness with a lot of body. Some rich deep earthy and cocoa notes with some heavier wood, maybe oak. More punchy than the Alma Del Campo or Alma Fuerte. The Flama vitola is super fun and a wonderful time. 5 stars, box worthy in my opinion.

Esse é o dos Plasencia mais tops. Podem comprar sem medo, mas comprem vários. Sou fã de tabacos mais fortes e encorpados, esse tendo tabaco ometepe não tem erro. Fumem e aproveitem o espetáculo nicaraguense

One of my favorite cigars. Starts a bit spicy and turns into a smooth multilayered experience. I believe this one gets better with a bit of aging. Pick up a few for now and a few for later, you won’t regret this one.
