Now they take the next step and <a title=\"Plasencia Introducing Alma del Campo as Second Installment of Alma Series\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cigarjournal.com\/plasencia-introducing-alma-del-campo-as-second-installment-of-alma-series\/\">introduce the Alma del Campo<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt means \u2018from the fields\u2019 and that\u2019s what we want to achieve, the taste of the Nicaraguan soil\u201d, CEO, Nestor Andr\u00e9s Plasencia, says.<\/p>\n<p>The cigar is 100 percent Nicaraguan with tobacco from all the regions where Plasencia tobacco is grown. It comes in five sizes but only three will be available in Europe, Sendero, Tribu and Madro\u00f1o, and according to the company itself it has \u2018hints of dark chocolate, plum and cinnamon\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a medium plus cigar with a lot of flavor, the flavor of Nicaragua, and a box comes with an ashtray. So does a box of Alma Fuerte.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Besides Alma del Campo Plasencia also introduces a renamed old friend in new packaging.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEuropean Union regulations don\u2019t allow us to call our cigar Reserva Org\u00e1nica because it indicates that it\u2019s good for you so we renamed it Reserva Original. We saw it as an opportunity to redo the packaging and the name refers to the way tobacco was first grown, without chemicals. So it\u2019s the same cigar in a different dress.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>At the IPCPR in Las Vegas in July Plasencia alsa launched the Plasencia Cosecha 146. At the moment it\u2019s only available in the US, but there are more in the making.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s made in our factory in Honduras from the 146<sup>th<\/sup> Plasencia crop and it\u2019s a mixture between Nicaragua and Honduran tobacco. This year is our 152<sup>nd<\/sup> crop so we\u2019re planning to do more in the future, like Cosecha 148, 150, 152 and so on.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last year Plasencia launched their new Alma series with the Alma Fuerte.
