Sinistro Plata O Plomo – Tiffany Limited Edition Cigar

The newest LCA (Limited Cigar Association) cigar is available this week on Thursday 9pm CA time / 12am est. Introducing the Sinistro Plata O Plomo – Tiffany Limited Edition. This is the first time we have seen Sinistro cigars make an appearance in the OGT Humidor. Sinestro is a premium cigar brand using new and innovative techniques of blending with traditional rolling methods that pay homage to the heritage of the craft. The new LCA Sinistro Plata O Plomo is a perfect example of that. Brian Desind and Clark Thorton of Privada Cigar Club state the following:

“Over 18 months ago, the original Plata O Plomo was released in the Privada Cigar Club monthly
subscription box and greeted with overwhelmingly positive feedback from our members. The cigar
came from James and Coleman of Sinistro and was rolled at La Aurora, the oldest cigar factory in the
Dominican Republic. James, being the perfectionist that he is, spent four months working on the
blend, and he incorporated into the blend some of that tobacco that La Aurora is famous for: andullo.
The method of producing andullo is extremely slow and labor intensive. Basically, the tobacco is
wrapped and fermented in leaves from a banana tree for months at a time until the tobacco takes on
an almost paste-like consistency with an extremely distinctive taste. In addition to the andullo in the
filler, there are also Nicaraguan, Peruvian, and Dominican leaves in the filler, an undisclosed binder,
and a Connecticut Shade wrapper on this 7×38 lancero. This LE version of Plata o Plomo is a
tweaked blend from the original, and is distinguished by a foot band which the original didn’t have.
The name of this cigar “Plata o Plomo” references a saying that was often used by kingpin Pablo
Escobar. It translates literally to “silver or lead” and was basically an invitation to accept a bribe to
cooperate with Escobar (silver) or else get a bullet in the head (lead). You can see on the band coins
on one side clashing with bullets on the other.”

Sinistro Plata O Plomo – Tiffany Limited Edition is slated to drop in two days. The rarety of the blending style combined with the talent of James at Sinistro cigar, all wrapped in a delicious 7×38 Lancero makes this a truly unique cigar. Don’t miss the official drop on Thursday 9pm/12am est.
