Plasencia Alma Fuerte Robustus I Robusto is the 5¼ x 52 robusto in Plasencia's Alma Fuerte line. Plasencia describes dark chocolate and ripe plum with cinnamon, finishing on oak and molasses. Plasencia says the size names honor the family's founders, Sixto II and Néstor Sr., and that the V marks today's fifth generation.
Alma Fuerte, “strong soul,” was the first line of Plasencia's Alma series, launched in October 2016 at the Carnegie Club in New York, Cigar Aficionado reported. It is a Nicaraguan puro: a dark, shade-grown Jalapa wrapper over a Nicaraguan binder and filler from Condega, Estelí, Jalapa and Ometepe, mostly Criollo '98 drawn from the family's aged reserves. It is rolled at Plasencia Cigars S.A. in Estelí and packed 10 to a box whose lid doubles as an ashtray.
The Robustus I is the robusto, 5¼ x 52, and the first size added after launch: Cigar Aficionado reported it in November 2018 ahead of a February 2019 release. Cigar Aficionado scored it 90 points in August 2025 and rated it medium-full.
