Plasencia Announces Tubos for Alma Fuerte Sixto I Hexagon at PCA 2025

April 3, 2025 By Matthew Tabacco

Plasencia Cigars announces that the popular Plasencia Alma Fuerte Sixto l Hexagon will now be available in a new sleekly designed and elegant tube presentation. This new format will be displayed at the 2025 PCA Trade Show (Premium Cigar Association) in New Orleans, taking place from April 11th through 14th in New Orleans at the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center and is expected to begin shipping in early June.

Jim Young, CEO of Plasencia 1865 USA stated: “We are excited to announce that our best-seller, Alma Fuerte Sixto I, is now available in a hexagon-shaped tube presentation. This new packaging adds elegance and convenience, making it perfect for any occasion.”

The Alma Fuerte Sixto I Hexagon was introduced in early 2021 and quickly became a favorite among consumers as it features a unique smoking experience by combining Plasencia’s innovative Hexagon shape with exceptional aged tobacco. 

The Plasencia team embraced biomimicry with the hexagon shape, inspired by the honeycomb’s ingenious structure which is one of nature’s most efficient and perfect shapes. It offers structural strength and stability, distributing pressure evenly and the hexagonal shape optimizes the cigar’s surface area while maintaining compactness. It enhances combustion and airflow, leading to a more balanced and complex smoking experience, creating a distinctive feel and grip, setting it apart from traditional cigars. Since its debut, the hexagon-shaped cigar has been a success and remains Plasencia’s best-selling cigar.

The Alma Fuerte Sixto I Hexagon is a Nicaraguan puro and features a Colorado Claro wrapper that complements its innovative shape. This unique construction refines the smoking experience, delivering a smooth yet full-bodied profile. Expect rich notes of cocoa and almonds, layered with subtle hints of nutmeg and cedar that emerge in the final notes.

 The 6 x 60 Plasencia Alma Fuerte Sixto I Hexagon Tubo features an MSRP of $26.25, and is available in ten count boxes (MSRP $262.50) and an elegantly designed three count pack with an MSRP of $78.75.
