Plasencia Alma del Campo

Better known as the cigar-makers behind dozens of releases from Rocky Patel, Romeo y Julieta, and Alec Bradley, the Plasencia family debuted their eponymous brand a few years back, and Alma del Campo is a solid introduction to what the Plasencias do best. A lustrous, chocolate-brown Nicaraguan Criollo wrapper harbors a well-aged interior of premium Nicaraguan long-fillers in a collection of balanced sizes. A woody and peppery profile of cedar, dark cocoa, leather, and earth culminates in a floral finish with hints of fresh bread.
