The Sendero is the full-size 6 x 56 Toro in Plasencia's Alma del Campo line.

What it tastes like
This vitola gives the blend time and space. It opens with sweet tobacco and earth, builds through nutty tobacco and coffee as the oils warm up, and merges coffee, spice and cream into a rich bouquet, with cedar and a little fruit alongside. The spice is rounded, not peppery, and the draw is open and trouble-free. It's medium-to-full — satisfying without wearing you out.
Who it's for
A relaxed hour-plus cigar for smokers who already enjoy medium sticks and want something flavorful and well-made. Pair it with coffee or aged rum. As a Nicaraguan puro it's a clean look at the country's tobacco — compare it to Havana in Cuban vs Nicaraguan cigars. Don't have a humidor yet? See how to store cigars without a humidor.
