Nestor Plasencia, Sr. is one of the few men considered to a grandmaster and indisputable pillar of the cigar industry. The contributions of the Plasencia family to cigar manufacturers in Honduras, Nicaragua, and the Dominican Republic are invaluable and place the family beyond reproach. If not for pioneering families of Cuban growers, such as the Plasencias, the quality of Central American tobacco would never have reached or surpassed the quality of Cuban tobacco leaf. In the 1950’s and 1960’s, Cuban immigrants changed the landscape of Nicaragua’s volcanic farmlands forever with the simple tobacco seeds spirited away from their one-time island homeland. From smuggling pockets, the heritage and quality of Nicaraguan tobacco increased generation by generation. Now, Ometepe and other regions, such as Jalapa or Condega, rank among the best cigar tobacco growing regions in the world. The Plasencia family built upon this legendary reputation for tobacco, establishing factories in Nicaragua and Honduras. Their factories today produce more than 30 million cigars annually. These cigars are consistently ranked among the finest cigars in the world and certainly the most well-known Nicaraguan brand, second only to Padron. The Plasencia family is a household name due to the fiery passion in their hearts and the quality of their tobacco grown in volcanic, ashy soil. Indeed, many Plasencia cigars draw inspiration from the fiery passion of the family or Nicaragua. Besides, their own cigars, they do dozens of private labels for other manufacturers. Given that many cigars are made from Plasencia tobacco, would not a Plasencia cigar be a superior product?
