Plasencia Reserva 1898 Toro

Plasencia Reserva 1898 Toro is a comfortable medium-bodied cigar with a well-deserved rating of 91. Silencio Red Dot is a super-premium blend of tobacco that contains all the properties of a well-executed, balanced quality cigar. Plasencia Reserva 1898 Toro marks the first time a Silencio has ever had a Connecticut Shade wrapper. The leaf is said to have been intentionally developed to produce an aesthetically pleasing, near-veinless appearance on the finished product.

This thing is bordering on Colorado or Rosado. Without a band, You would never guess this to be an African Cameroon-wrapped cigar. It’s not even particularly even, with some dark mottling, veins, and a pale section (even this is darker than normal) that follows the seam up the length of the cigar. The foot of the cigar is pretty spongey, but it’s solid elsewhere.

You can buy this at Stogies & More.
