Plasencia Year of the Rabbit

THE 2023 CHINESE NEW YEAR LIMITED EDITION HAS ARRIVED!

Plasencia Cigars, a world-leading premium tobacco grower since 1865, announces the release of the limited edition “The Year of the Rabbit”. The cigar brand commemorates the Chinese New Year (January 22, 2023), which is the start of the “Year of the Rabbit”.

This will be a limited-edition brand offered only in a Toro 6 ½ x 54 vitola. A total of 6,000 boxes were produced with only 3,000 for the U.S. marketplace.

The sign of the Rabbit is a symbol of longevity, peace, and prosperity in Chinese culture. The new year is predicted to be a year of hope. Gentle and elegant, the rabbit’s ability to adjust readily to different conditions is what stands out most to the Plasencia family.

The “Year of the Rabbit” is a Nicaraguan puro using tobaccos from the various Plasencia farms within that country.

Focusing on tobacco from a very special area within the Jalapa Valley, the cigar is a beautiful mild to medium-bodied cigar that is perfectly balanced and impeccably constructed. This blend was created to match the redeeming features of the rabbit, such as gentleness and elegance. It features notes of nougat, green tea, cedar, and cardamom.
