Proudly Introducing at Magnum’s


We are proud to introduce the Plasencia Year of the Horse at Magnum’s—a cigar that perfectly aligns with our commitment to offering only the finest and most exclusive selections. This limited-edition release represents everything we value: heritage, craftsmanship, and an exceptional smoking experience.

At Magnum’s, we carefully curate cigars that stand out, and the Year of the Horse is no exception. Its rarity and refined profile make it a distinguished addition to our collection, available for those who appreciate true premium quality.


A Tribute to the Year of the Horse

In Chinese culture, the Horse symbolizes strength, energy, success, and freedom. Plasencia captured these attributes in a cigar designed to embody power and elegance. The release is part of a special zodiac series that celebrates heritage and artistry, making it not just a smoke—but a story.

Each box reflects meticulous attention to detail, often featuring ornate designs and luxurious presentation, reinforcing its status as a collector’s item.


Construction and Blend

At the heart of the Plasencia Year of the Horse lies a blend composed entirely of Nicaraguan tobaccos, grown on Plasencia’s own farms. Known for their vertical integration—from seed to cigar—the company ensures full control over quality and consistency.

Key characteristics:

  • Origin: Nicaragua

  • Wrapper: High-quality Nicaraguan leaf

  • Binder & Filler: Aged Nicaraguan tobaccos

  • Vitola: Typically a large-format, elegant size

  • Production: Strictly limited

The construction is flawless, with a smooth wrapper, firm pack, and precise draw—hallmarks of Plasencia’s reputation.


From the first draw, the Plasencia Year of the Horse delivers a rich, evolving experience:

  • Opening: Notes of cedar, earth, and subtle spice

  • Mid-palate: Creamy texture with hints of cocoa, espresso, and roasted nuts

  • Final third: Deeper complexity with pepper, leather, and a lingering sweetness

The balance between strength and smoothness makes it suitable for seasoned smokers while still approachable for those exploring premium cigars.


Aging and Craftsmanship

Plasencia is known for its extensive aging process. The tobaccos used in this release are carefully aged to develop depth and smoothness, reducing harshness while enhancing complexity.

Each cigar is hand-rolled by expert torcedores in Nicaragua, reflecting generations of expertise within the Plasencia family—one of the most respected names in the industry.


Limited Availability & Collectibility

The Plasencia Year of the Horse is produced in very limited quantities, making it highly sought after among collectors and enthusiasts. Once released, these cigars often become difficult to find, increasing their desirability and long-term value.

For many, owning a box is as much about appreciation as it is about enjoyment.


Final Thoughts

The Plasencia Year of the Horse is more than a premium cigar—it’s a celebration of tradition, symbolism, and craftsmanship. Now proudly available at Magnum’s, it offers a rare opportunity to experience one of Plasencia’s most distinguished creations.

Whether you’re a collector, a seasoned aficionado, or someone looking to mark a special occasion, this cigar delivers an experience that is both meaningful and memorable.
