Cigar brand Plasencia has developed a system that combines technology and tradition, with a cigar featuring an integrated chip.
Plasencia has teamed up with Legacy Secure to develop a system incorporating exciting technology that will provide a wealth of information about the cigar both to the retailer and, above all, to the consumer. The aim is to educate the consumer about the brand's long history, while promoting the craftsmanship behind the manufacture of a cigar. Indeed, if you own a cell phone, you can access this service without even downloading an application.
The brand has worked closely with Legacy Secure to develop a smart chip which is currently being tested on Alma Fuerte Sixto l Hexagon Colorado Claro and box* cigars.
As soon as a distributor or consumer opens his or her phone, the smart chip authenticating the cigar instantly opens a web page giving access to all possible information on the cigar. This page features high-definition photos, as well as information on the cigar's blend, tasting notes and other details enabling a complete understanding of the product. There will also be content designed to educate a wide audience about the Plasencia family's 150-year history in the tobacco business.
The Plasencia family Plasencia attaches great importance to customer feedback, in order to constantly improve the quality of both the service offered and the products themselves. Thanks to this new integrated element, the end consumer will have the opportunity to share his opinion, as this technology will also make it possible to evaluate the cigar "live" during tasting.
CEO Nestor Andres Plasencia comments: "The tobacco tradition within our family is 156 years old this year, as previous generations have combined hard work, a thirst for development, and an innovative way of conceiving and thinking about the brand. Our collaboration with Legacy Secure is a further step in our quest for continuous evolution. We look forward to sharing our unique history in the tobacco industry, while providing that same audience with a platform on which they can communicate directly with us."
