Plasencia Cosecha 149 La Vega Robustos presented in a box of 10 cigars.

Plasencia Cohiba 149 La Vega Robusto Cigars are made from 100% Honduran tobacco. This is a rich, well-balanced puro and Plasencia’s first all-Honduran cigar. Produced at their Tabacos de Oriente factory.

The company was initially founded by Don Eduardo Plasencia who emigrated from The Canary islands in 1865 to Cuba and began to grow tobacco. The farm remained in family hands until it was confiscated by Fidel Castro’s regime in 1963. Don Elder Sixto and his family fled to Mexico and and ended up in Nicaragua in 1965 where he planted some of his best seeds. The farms were burned by The Sandinistas in 1978 and the family fled to Honduras where Nestor Plasencia entered the cigar business. Eventually, in 1990, the family would return to Nicaragua and re-start the business they were forced to leave. Plasencia are now the largest tobacco grower in world. They launched their first cigars under the Plasencia brand in 2017.

All the leaves for the Plasencia Cosecha 149 La Vega Robusto were grown Honduras. Blended with a wrapper from Olancho, San Agustín , a binder from Jamastran and mix of filler tobaccos from Jamastran , Talanga and Olancho. The Jamastran leaf was grown from proprietary Corojo seeds that the company says it developed, while the rest of the tobacco is Criollo. Some of the the tobacco is from 2014, the company’s 149th harvest (cosecha translates as “harvest”) lending deep, well-fermented character.

Plasencia Cosecha 149 is a medium to full-strength cigar balanced by distinct notes of cream, dark chocolate, and a subtle yet earthy hint of cedar.

Smoke time around 40 to 50 minutes.
