This new blend, the world’s first high elevation cigar, was unveiled by the Plasencia family at the 2025 PCA

Plasencia Cigars, a world-leading premium tobacco grower established in 1865, proudly announces that the first-ever high-elevation cigar, the Alma del Cielo is now shipping! Alma del Cielo, meaning “Soul from the Sky,” was unveiled via a grand event at the Plasencia Cigars booth at the 2025 PCA in New Orleans. Guests enjoyed champagne and a performance by Grammy Award-winning artist October London.

The grand unveiling of the Alma del Cielo was the highlight of Plasencia Cigars’ participation at the 2025 PCA annual event. This release continues the family’s legacy of creating blends that reflect their dedication to farming practices that elevate the nurture of the soil and celebrate their rich, unique flavors. Nestor Plasencia captivated the audience with an emotional speech, vividly sharing the cherished family story behind the Alma del Cielo blend.

Nestor Andres Plasencia said:” The Alma del Cielo is a blend born out of love, passion, tradition, and family values. It was an honor to have unveiled the Alma del Cielo along with my father (Don Nestor Plasencia) and my siblings and family at the 2025 PCA.”

The Alma del Cielo captures the essence of tobacco grown at Finca San Julian in Condega, situated over 3500 feet above sea level. This cigar is a tale of family, love, passion, and destiny.

The Alma del Cielo cigar opens with a rich, creamy sweetness of marzipan and honey, accented by subtle hints of nougat. As the cigar evolves, earthy undertones weave through, accompanied by delicate traces of orange zest. The heart of the smoke unveils warm cedar and more nougat, while the finish delivers a harmonious crescendo, with a refined touch of ginger spice that lingers gently. Best paired with fine luxury champagne.

Housed in elegantly designed 10 count boxes. The Alma del Cielo is available in three vitolas.

AMANECER – Hexágono (6 x 60)

BOREAL – Toro (6 1/8 x 54)
