Plasencia Cigars debuted the Plasencia Cosecha 149 at the 2021 PCA trade show this week. The word "Cosecha" translates to "harvest," and in this case is a reference to the harvest of tobacco used in this blend. Plasencia Cosecha 149 contains tobacco from the 149th Plasencia Family harvest, which happened in 2014. The tobacco has been fermenting and aging ever since, until it made its way into this particular cigar.

·"I was really surprised by the changes in flavor profile. The complexity in this cigar really caught me off guard as the dark DARK wrapper told my eyes one thing but my nose and tongue were telling a totally different story. I enjoyed this cigar from start to finish even if the burn was slightly uneven in the beginning. Not too long of a smoke too so you can certainly find the time to squeeze one in." -Paul (pmr1010)
"As a guy who prefers a strong, full bodied cigar, I am surprised at how much I enjoyed this cigar. For being mild, it presented enough of a range of flavors and transition that I was engaged for the entirety of the smoke and wished that I had more to enjoy in the future. I'd be glad to recommend this to a friend, or new smoker, and will gladly smoke another in the future. " -Jason H. (Jokey Smurf)
"Overall, I would say, this was an excellent cigar. Although the flavors did not transition much from third to third, considering I enjoyed all of these flavors it was very pleasing. I would definitely recommend this to individuals who, like a little bit bolder of a cigar, considering it was medium to full throughout most of the cigar." -Angel M. (Angel)
"One of those delectable treats you get in the form of a cigar. Very straight-forward, but very rewarding as well. If you want stability, sweetness, and no kickback, this should be right up your alley." -Doug S. (Unpossible_1)

"This cigar is very good with some great transitions. It goes from tannic notes to bitter fruit to bright green notes. It may not be something I reach for on a normal occasion but I wouldn’t be opposed to smoking it again. I can see it finding a home in some humidors." -Estevan Z. (TheRealBanzi)
