Privada Storytelling
Legacy pressed into color and character
Alma Fuerte Colorado Claro is a testament to time and terroir. Crafted entirely from Nicaraguan leaf—including a decade-aged Colorado Claro wrapper—it celebrates heritage in every puff. The hexagonal Sixto I physically embodies Plasencia’s spirit of innovation, while the box-pressed Eduardo I and Robustus II bring creamier, structured options.
From warm toasted bread and cedar to leather and espresso, it evolves like well-aged whiskey: bold, spicy, and layered with nutmeg, oak, and floral accents. It’s nostalgic, deliberate, and quietly powerful.
Flavor Journey
