Plasencia Cigars and Corona Cigar Company Expand Product Partnership with Alma Fuerte

Plasencia Cigars announces the introduction of a new Alma Fuerte Torpedo Semi-Boxpress (6 x 54), created exclusively for Florida based Corona Cigar Company. The new cigar joins the retailer's existing Alma del Cielo Robusto Gordo (5½ x 54), distinguished from the original collection by its Colorado Claro wrapper. Both exclusives will ship the week of October 19, 2026, with Alma del Cielo now featuring Plasencia's evolved brand identity and redesigned packaging.

Both cigars will be available at all five Corona Cigar Company retail locations throughout Florida and online.

The Alma Fuerte Torpedo Semi-Boxpressed is a medium-to-full-bodied Nicaraguan puro featuring an aged Colorado Claro wrapper and aged filler tobaccos from Estelí. Presented in 10-count boxes, this exclusive offering carries an MSRP of $26.49 per cigar or $264.90 per box.

The Alma del Cielo Robusto Gordo offers a stronger, more robust expression of Plasencia's celebrated high-elevation blend. Its unique wrapper gives it a full-bodied experience featuring tobacco from Finca San Julián in Condega, Nicaragua, at elevations exceeding 3,500 feet above sea level. The cigar will now ship in the redesigned blue-and-gold 10-count boxes, with an MSRP of $27.99 per cigar or $279.90 per box.

“At Corona Cigar Company, we've always believed in offering our customers something truly distinctive,” said Jeff Borysiewicz, President and Founder of Corona Cigar Company. “The Plasencia family shares our passion for exceptional tobacco and craftsmanship. These two exclusives reflect that shared philosophy, bringing unique expressions of two outstanding collections to our customers.”

“Corona Cigar Company shares our commitment to quality and a deep appreciation for the art of tobacco,” said Ed Bello, Chief Executive Officer of Plasencia Cigars. “The introduction of the Alma Fuerte Torpedo and the continued evolution of the Alma del Cielo exclusive demonstrate how meaningful retail partnerships allow us to explore new expressions of our tobacco heritage while creating distinctive experiences for cigar enthusiasts.”

Both cigars are available exclusively through Corona Cigar Company, with shipments of the new Alma Fuerte and newly packaged Alma del Cielo scheduled for the first week of November 2026.
