Plasencia Cigars has announced the release of its Cosecha 151 TAA Exclusive Salomon. This limited-edition cigar will make its debut at the 2024 Tobacconists’ Association of America (TAA) convention, which will be held in Aruba from October 20 to 24, 2024. The exclusive release will be available only to retailers who are TAA members.
The Cosecha 151 TAA Exclusive Salomon is a medium-to-full-bodied Honduran puro, crafted from tobacco harvested from the Plasencia family’s farms. The name “Cosecha 151” honors the 151st tobacco crop harvested by the family in 2016, a milestone that highlights the legacy of expertise spanning over 150 years. The new Salomon vitola, a 6×54 size, presents a unique opportunity for cigar enthusiasts to experience this blend in a challenging and intricate format, with only 500 boxes of 10 cigars being produced. The cigar carries a suggested retail price of $195 per box, or $19.50 per cigar.
According to Plasencia Cigars, the choice to craft the Cosecha 151 in the Salomon size adds to the exclusivity and appeal of this release. Salomon cigars are notoriously difficult to roll due to their tapered shape, requiring the skill and expertise of master rollers to achieve the perfect draw and burn. This size also enhances the flavor complexity of the cigar, offering new dimensions to the already celebrated blend.
Plasencia’s Cosecha Legacy Continues The Cosecha 151 is the third installment in the esteemed Cosecha series, which celebrates the heritage of the Plasencia family as one of the world’s foremost tobacco growers. The family’s vast library of aged tobacco serves as the foundation for this blend, allowing for a carefully curated smoking experience. With each release, Plasencia Cigars continues to push the boundaries of craftsmanship, ensuring that each new installment of the Cosecha series exceeds expectations.
Nestor Andrés Plasencia, CEO of Plasencia Cigars, expressed his excitement about the release: “The Cosecha 151 holds a special place in our hearts as it represents a significant part of our family’s history. The Salomon vitola is one of the most complex cigars to create, and we are proud to offer this format to our loyal TAA members, who have been an essential part of our journey.”
The limited-edition Salomon will begin shipping to TAA retailers in October 2024, just after the official launch at the TAA trade show in Aruba. With its limited production of only 500 boxes, this exclusive release is expected to be highly sought after by cigar aficionados and collectors alike.
