Quintessential craftsmanship Plasencia: Alma Fuerte Sixto II
Within the illustrious Plasencia collection, the Sixto II from the Alma Fuerte range stands out with unshakeable presence. It's a work of art that not only bears the stamp of a grand cru, but represents the culmination of generations of tobacco expertise. The perfect harmony between strength and subtlety serves as the common thread for this exceptional cigar.
A palette of mature, refined flavors
Sixto II unfolds a symphony of flavours that fascinates from the very first moment. The use of leaves from the fertile lands of Estelí, Condega, Jalapa and Ometepe brings a complexity rarely encountered. The arabesques of dark chocolate, plum and cinnamon dance with more subtle nuances of licorice. A finish reminiscent of oak and molasses envelops the palate, testifying to nine years of carefully observed aging.
Visual design for excellence
Jalapa's Shade Grown wrapper features a dark hue and oily sheen, heralding a cigar with character. This visual elegance is further enhanced by the box-pressed hexagonal shape of the Sixto II, a signature of Plasencia 's commitment to innovation and aesthetics. The presentation in a dark grey lacquered box only amplifies the cigar's appeal, promising unforgettable tasting moments.
A tribute to cigar history and culture
The choice of growing regions for the Sixto II tobacco is not accidental. It represents respect for Nicaraguan terroirs and their essential contribution to the worldwide renown of the region's cigars. Each shoot is selected for its ability to enrich the blend of this Alma Fuerte series, carrying on the Plasencia family heritage that has endured for over a century.
Impeccable construction and unrivalled consistency
The production of the Plasencia Alma Fuerte Sixto II demonstrates a rigorous construction that is evident throughout the tasting experience. The even, precise draw underscores the expertise of the torcedors who assemble these masterpieces, guaranteeing uniform combustion and a satisfying experience from start to finish. The precision of the cut, the perfect retention of the ash and the consistency of the smoke volume reflect flawless craftsmanship.
A balanced power profile for discerning aficionados
This jewel of Nicaraguan cigar culture offers a medium-strong profile that will satisfy the palates of discerning connoisseurs. The estimated tasting time, between 80 and 100 minutes, is an invitation to take the time to savor every nuance of the Sixto II. The dimensions of 152 millimeters in length by a diameter of 23.62 millimeters confirm Plasencia 's desire to offer a robust cigar with an air of quiet majesty.
