Plasencia Alma Fuerte Colorado Claro Sixto I Hexagon

Plasencia Alma Fuerte Colorado Claro Sixto I Hexagon is the 6 x 60 hexágono in Plasencia's Alma Fuerte Colorado Claro line. Plasencia lists almond, cedar, cocoa, nutmeg and spice. Plasencia says the size names honor Eduardo and Sixto I, whom it calls the first founders of the family's tobacco-growing tradition.

Plasencia calls it elegant and medium to full-bodied, and Cigar Aficionado describes it as a less powerful spinoff of the original Alma Fuerte.
