SENCILLO PLATINUM
Handmade in Danli, Honduras, the Sencillo Platinum blend uses Habano de Jamastran tobacco for the wrapper, filler, and binder, with Piloto Cubano tobacco added to the filler to balance out the flavor. The Sencillo Platinum is a puro, made entirely from tobacco grown in Honduras.
All of the Sencillo Platinum cigars exude a rich, spicy flavor and have notes of allspice and cinnamon. A bountiful flavor lingers on your tongue. A slightly sweet undertone tames the spicy taste. The medium-to-full bodied tobacco has the refined, leathery taste that reveals careful fermentation and aging.
ROBUSTO
50 X 4 1/2 inch (19 mm X 133)
MSRP $223.75 ($8.95 per cigar)
25 cigars per box
Item code: CG-9001
The Robusto has the most pronounced and full-bodied flavor of all the Sencillo Platinum shapes. The spice notes are more intense, yet the cigar remains balanced and never overwhelms the palate.
DOUBLE ROBUSTO
52 X 5 3/4 inch (20 mm X 146)
MSRP $231.25 ($9.25 per cigar)
25 cigars per box
Item code: CG-9002
The Double Robusto tames the Robusto’s taste just slightly. It is a bit lighter, mellower, and smokes cooler. The spicy zest is there, but it is balanced against a stronger taste of leather, and subtle earthy flavors start to enter.
gran toro 56
56 X 6 inch (22.5 mm X 152)
MSRP $256.25 ($10.25 per cigar)
25 cigars per box
Item code: CG-9007
The Gran Toro 56 may be the most complex of all the Sencillo Platinums. The peppery taste of the smaller Sencillo Platinum cigars is present for only the first inch or so, soon subsumed in hints of nutmeg, cinnamon, cardamom, and other spices. Further down, one catches the distinctive bittersweet flavor of cocoa powder. The Gran Toro 56’s aroma recalls the experience of visiting a Middle Eastern spice merchant - it is fascinating and intricate, filled with too many scents to readily identify.
PIRÁMIDE
54 X 6 1/8 inch (21 mm X 155)
MSRP $268.75 ($10.75 per cigar)
25 cigars per box
Item code: CG-9004
The elegant Pirámide is the most visually impressive of all the Sencillo Platinum cigars, and delivers the most intense aroma as well. The smooth, satisfying taste mirrors that of the Short Churchill, with just a bit more of the spicy kick of the Robusto and Double Robusto.
