Plasencia Ehtëfal
A Toro that "celebrates the fact that we can come together", presented on the sidelines of the 2022 Football World Cup.
Since 1865, the Plasencia family has been perfecting the art of growing tobacco and making cigars. From the rich soil of pre-revolutionary Cuba to the sunny soils of Nicaragua and Honduras, five generations have been committed to provide superior cigars and continue to build on over 150 years of tobacco heritage.
Today, the Plasencia family is one of the world's leading producers of premium tobacco with more than 35 million handmade cigars per year and more than 1,200 hectares cultivated in several Central American countries including Nicaragua, Honduras, Costa Rica and Panama. Synonym of traditional culture, harmonious blended tobacco creations and sophisticated smoking pleasure, Plasencia cigars enjoys an excellent reputation in the tobacco world.
Launched last November in Qatar, at the same time and place as the 2022 football World Cup, Plasencia Ehtëfal "celebrates the fact that we can find each other" said Nestor Andrés Plasencia. He added "Just as the roots of tobacco that come together and become stronger, we are also stronger together. We want to celebrate this memorable occasion in Qatar with the Plasencia Ehtëfal."
Officially, this is neither a "World Cup cigar" nor a regional edition for Qatar, however, its name "Ehtëfal" comes from Arabic and can be translated as "celebration".
Regarding the blend, this beautiful Toro (52 x 152 mm), is made from a combination of Honduran and Nicaraguan tobaccos that have been aged for 10 years, all dressed in a wrapper grown under the sun of Jalapa in Guatemala.
The production of this Toro is limited to only 5'000 boxes of 10 units worldwide. The cigars are dressed with a triple band, the classic double band, declined in green for the occasion and a foot band, also green, personalized with the name of the cigar: "Ehtëfal". The cigars are presented in a green luxurious wooden box same as the colour of this special production, with tobacco leaf motifs in relief on the top.
The Plasencia Ehtëfal has a special meaning for the Plasencia family. It is a celebration of the world coming together once again after two difficult years.
