Plasencia Magnum
Origin: Nicaragua
Size: 6.00 X 50
Wrapper: Natural

From The Cigar Renaissance:
The Plasencia factories produce a number of varied cigar brands including, but not limited to V Centennial, Thomas Hinds, La Finca, Mocha, and La Maya.

The brand good enough to carry the family name on its band was just recently made available to the United States just 2 and a half years ago. The brand is hand made in the Nicaraguan town of Esteli with a blend of two premium tobaccos. The line’s binders and fillers are grown from Cuban seed at the Plasencia Esteli plantation, while the Ecuadorian wrapper is purchased just after harvest to be aged and fermented under Nestor’s care at the Esteli factory.

Notes:

Wonderfully mild smoke. No bite whatsoever. Prices lately have been very reasonable for one of the best smokes around.
