Plasencia Releases Alma del Campo Travesía Box Press
Plasencia Cigars has released a new size for its Alma del Campo line, albeit one with a somewhat familiar name: the Travesía Box Press.
The Travesía was one of the five vitolas released in 2017 when the line debuted, and it will remain in the portfolio even with this new squared-off version. Both Travesía styles measure 6 1/2 x 54 and are offered in 10-count boxes, with the box-pressed version priced at $17.
This bring the Alma del Campo line to six vitolas:
- Plasencia Alma del Campo Travesía (6 1/2 x 54)
- Plasencia Alma del Campo Travesía Box Press (6 1/2 x 54)
- Plasencia Alma del Campo Sendero (6 x 56)
- Plasencia Alma del Campo Madroño (6 1/2 x 58)
- Plasencia Alma del Campo Guajiro (5 1/2 x 54)
- Plasencia Alma del Campo Tribu (5 x 52)
As with the other sizes in the line, it’s a Nicaragua puro, though via a press release, the company said that this vitola presents a creamier and smoother version of the blend.

I strive to capture the essence of a cigar and the people behind them in my work – every cigar you light up is the culmination of the work of countless people and often represents generations of struggle and stories. For me, it’s about so much more than the cigar – it’s about the story behind it, the experience of enjoying the work of artisans and the way that a good cigar can bring people together. In addition to my work with halfwheel, I’m the public address announcer for the Colorado Rockies and Arizona Diamondbacks during spring training, as well as for the Salt River Rafters of the Arizona Fall League, the WNBA's Phoenix Mercury and previously the Arizona Rattlers of the Indoor Football League. I also work in a number of roles for Major League Baseball, plus I'm a voice over artist. Prior to joining halfwheel, I covered the Phoenix and national cigar scene for Examiner.com, and was an editor for Cigar Snob magazine.
