Although Plasencia Cigars has been on the market as a cigar brand for less than a decade, the Plasencia family has been intimately involved in the premium cigar industry for well over a century. The family’s experience, passion, and dedication to providing only the best can be tasted in every puff. For over 5 generations, the Plasencia family has gotten the science of growing fine tobaccos and the art of cigar making as close to perfection as one could ever hope.

The history of the Plasencia family’s relationship with tobacco runs deep to 1865 Cuba when Don Eduardo Plasencia first planted tobacco seeds. Through a tumultuous second half of the last century that saw the family move from Cuba, to Nicaragua, then to Honduras, and back to Nicaragua due to myriad roadblocks, the family persevered and never wavered in their passion for top-shelf tobaccos and cigars.

Today, the Plasencia family produces well over 30 million cigars per year at four factories, has expansive farms in Honduras and Nicaragua, and launched its own brand in 2015 with fervent anticipation from the cigar community. Plasencia Cigars’ portfolio is composed of blends that use only the choicest tobaccos grown by the family, exemplified by Plasencia Cigars’ incredibly popular Alma Series.
