Plasencia Cigars announces El Año de la Cabra, or Year of the Goat, the seventh annual release celebrating Chinese New Year. It is a 6 1⁄4 x 60 Perfecto Figurado ($60).
Produced in Danlí, Honduras, El Año de la Cabra features a Honduran wrapper grown in the Azacualpa terroir in Olancho, a binder from the Jamastrán Valley, and a combination of Honduran and Nicaraguan filler tobaccos.
“The goat represents a quiet but powerful strength, one that comes from patience, balance, and an instinctive connection to nature,” Néstor Andrés Plasencia, fifth-generation, said in a press release. “Those qualities are deeply connected to how our family has approached tobacco for more than 160 years. With El Año de la Cabra, we wanted to create a cigar that honors that philosophy, bringing together the character of our Honduran and Nicaraguan tobaccos in an expression that is both distinctive and deeply rooted in the land.”
The cigars are packaged in a red lacquered wooden box, accented with gold detailing and patterns inspired by the curves of a goat’s horns.
