Privada Storytelling
The Plasencia family has cultivated tobacco for over 150 years, and the Alma series is their magnum opus — a declaration of everything they’ve learned across generations. Alma del Cielo translates to “Soul of the Sky,” and it’s a fitting name. This is Plasencia at their most ambitious, channeling the rugged Honduran terroir into a cigar that speaks with thunderous depth.
The Toro and Robusto sizes deliver different experiences of the same vision. The Robusto hits with a compact punch, delivering bursts of espresso and pepper from the first draw. The Toro stretches the journey, letting each transition bloom across a longer canvas — revealing more nuance in the interplay of earth, cocoa, and a touch of dried fruit sweetness. Both vitolas showcase the intensity and beauty of Honduran tobacco at its peak.
This isn’t just another premium cigar; it’s the Plasencias planting their flag in the ground and saying: this is who we are, this is our sky, and this is our soul.
Flavor Journey
The smoke opens with espresso and black pepper, setting a bold pace. The Maduro wrapper soon delivers dark chocolate richness, underpinned by earthy Honduran soil and leather. As it evolves, hints of dried fruit sweetness and toasted oak surface, creating a balance between strength and refinement. The finish lingers with roasted coffee and spice — a full-bodied experience that demands your attention.
Why It Belongs in Privada
Alma del Cielo is not only a top-tier blend from one of the most respected tobacco families in the world, it is also a symbol of Honduran craftsmanship reaching its zenith. Privada collectors expect access to the most meaningful cigars in the market — and few embody heritage, artistry, and raw power like this one. Toro or Robusto, Alma del Cielo belongs in any serious collection.
