Plasencia Alma del Campo Guajiro Robusto Gordo

Plasencia Alma del Campo Guajiro Robusto Gordo is the 5½ x 54 box-pressed robusto gordo in Plasencia's Alma del Campo line. Plasencia calls it smooth, with coffee, cream, nuts and spice, plus rich chocolate, toasted nuts and sweet wood.

Alma del Campo, “soul of the country,” is the second line of Plasencia's Alma series. It was shown at the 2017 IPCPR trade show and shipped that August, halfwheel reported. Plasencia says every leaf comes from the sandy red soil of the Jalapa Valley, grown from Cuban Habano seed for the family alone, and that the line honors Finca La Limonera, where Don Sixto II Plasencia Pérez planted Habano seed after the family left Cuba. It is rolled at Plasencia Cigars S.A. in Estelí and packed 10 to a box whose lid doubles as an ashtray.

The Guajiro is a 5½ x 54 robusto gordo. Plasencia switched it to a box press in July 2024, Cigar Coop reported; before that it was round. It sits between the Tribu robusto and the Sendero toro gordo for a little more time in the chair.
