El Año del Caballo, which means year of the horse in Spanish, is Plasencia's newest edition to the Chinese Zodiac themed cigars. The (7" x 58) vitola, also known as Parejo Gordo, is made up of a wrapper grown in the Jalapa region of Nicaragua, covering a Nicaraguan binder and filler tobaccos from Honduras and Nicaragua. Each of the cigars will feature a braided tail extending from the cap that is made to resemble the braided tail of a horse. The unique addition to the caps of the cigars is created by a third roller.
“The horse embodies independence, resilience, and forward motion,” said Néstor Andrés Plasencia, in a press release. “El Año del Caballo is more than a cigar—it is a tribute to mastery in motion. From the rare, braided finish to the power and balance of the blend, this release reflects our legacy and our relentless drive to innovate.”Production is limited to 6,000 boxes of 10 cigars, so come and get Placencia's Year of the Horse today at City Of Cigars before they're gone!
