Plasencia Alma Fuerte Colorado Claro Sixto I Hexagon 6″ * 60

The Sixto I is the six-sided, hexagonal-pressed gordo in Plasencia’s Alma Fuerte Colorado Claro. The Plasencia Alma Fuerte Colorado Claro Sixto I Hexagon is a Nicaraguan puro under a Jalapa wrapper aged ten years, grown and rolled by the Plasencias, at a medium body.

The aged Colorado Claro wrapper keeps the profile lighter than the original Alma Fuerte, leaning toward cedar, almond, light coffee, and a dry, woody sweetness. At 6 by 60, the hexagonal press gives a distinctive feel and a slow, even burn.

The medium body works across the day rather than only at night. It is sold as singles or boxes of 10, so one is an easy first taste of the hexagonal size. A box-pressed Nicaraguan puro with an unusual shape.

Pairs well with coffee, bourbon, or amber ale.
