The house
The story of Crux
Crux Cigar Company’s cigars are made by Plasencia, whose factories operate in Honduras and Nicaragua. The wider Plasencia operation manufactures cigars for more than 30 labels.
Crux introduced its Epicure line in July 2016. Cigar Journal later reported its release with an additional 5.375 x 46 Corona Gorda vitola.
In 2017, Crux announced the third release of its Limitada PB5, increasing production from 750 to 1,000 ten-count boxes. That year it also announced a new Limitada IPCPR Show Exclusive available to order only during the IPCPR trade show.

Craft
How they make them
Crux cigars are produced by Plasencia, a tobacco-growing and cigar-making operation with factories in Honduras and Nicaragua. Plasencia’s fields have grown Connecticut-seed and Cuban-seed tobacco; during the mid-1990s, about 70 percent of the tobacco used in Plasencia-made cigars came from its own Honduran and Nicaraguan fields.
