Plasencia introduced the hexagonal Sixto vitola in the Alma Fuerte line, and the Colorado takes that oddity further. The wrapper is a Colorado Claro leaf aged ten years, grown on the family's own farms in Jalapa.
Ten years of ageing shows in how gently it smokes — medium-bodied, polished, with almond, sweet cedar and a clean earthiness. The hexagon press is not a gimmick either; it changes how the cigar draws and how it sits in the hand.
