Why this cigar

Plasencia’s signature hex-pressed 6×60 with a slightly more polished, high-gloss take on the Alma Fuerte profile. If you’re reading a Plasencia Alma Fuerte Sixto II review or looking to buy Plasencia cigars UK, this format pairs luxury hand-feel with dense, complex flavour for long, unhurried sessions.

Flavour & draw

Dark cocoa and espresso at the core, framed by sweet cedar, black pepper and toasted walnut. The mid-palate layers molasses, cinnamon and dried fruit (raisin/fig), before leather and cacao nibs carry a long, savoury finish. The hexagonal press promotes steady combustion and thick, cool smoke; burn is straight with a confidently easy draw.

FAQs

"This thick, hexagonally-pressed cigar has six sides, though the burn is a bit uneven and the draw requires some double puffing. It’s an earthy, mineral-heavy smoke carrying a concentrated note of lemon oil along with hints of dark chocolate, leather and coffee. Minerals recur on the finish." Cigar Aficionado, 88 points.
