Few releases embody that better than The Shit Show Crew Maduro Lonsdale. This cigar honors some of the longest-standing Privada members: a tight-knit group of Midwest brothers bound by the leaf, by laughter, and by nights that turn into legends. Their most infamous gathering took place in New Orleans—a city of jazz, spirits, and chaos. A night that was, by every definition, a shit show. This release commemorates that memory not with solemnity but with celebration. Rolled by AJ Fernandez, the King of Nicaraguan tobacco, it channels both the madness of the night and the artistry of true craft. Aged for over three years, it has transformed into an elegant, flavorful experience that pays homage not only to the Shit Show Crew but to every Privada member who knows what it means to turn nights into stories. Flavor Journey First Third: Rawhide, saddle leather, peach, and barnyard aromas precede flavors of black soy sauce, molasses, florals, and candied orange. Retrohale brings black pepper, candied fruit, leather, and dried florals. Chocolate and apricot sneak in as the profile expands. Second Third: Chocolate deepens, candied orange sharpens, and malted toastiness emerges. Retrohale shifts to red pepper, supported by toasted nuts and cereal. Balance builds between sweetness, spice, and richness. Final Third: Black coffee with sugar dominates, joined by florals, herbs, and an unexpected burst of sour Sprees candy. Red pepper retro persists alongside dried cherries, tart citrus, and oak, closing the experience with a sweet-sour twist that elevates the finale. Why It Belongs in Privada Privada thrives on turning personal stories into collective experiences. This cigar is proof. The Shit Show Crew may be just four members from the Midwest, but their bond represents the essence of Privada: community, loyalty, and memories forged in smoke. AJ Fernandez created this cigar not only as a masterpiece in broadleaf blending but also as a celebration of people, place, and story. That’s why it belongs here—because Privada cigars are more than smokes; they’re chapters in our shared history.

El Diablo Del Desierto Aged 4+ Years
El Diablo Del Desierto Aged 4+ Years Size: 6×52 Toro (format inferred from release style)Vitola: ToroWrapper: Mexican HabanoBinder: UndisclosedFillers: UndisclosedFlavor Notes: Black pepper, cedar, dried apple, vanilla, cola syrup, candied nuts, cinnamon, butterscotch, caramel, Red Hot candy, mild curry spicePairing Notes: Butterscotch, Coca-Cola, bourbon, rye whiskey, vanilla coffee, orange oolong tea, ginger candy, apple pie, apple pie moonshine, ales, dried fruits, whipped cream, sushi, Thai foodManufacturer: Purple Sky (Mexico) Privada Storytelling Some cigars come from polished factories with generations of prestige behind them. Others come from the underground—raw, unpredictable, and somehow all the more alluring. El Diablo Del Desierto, created by Purple Sky Cigars, falls firmly into the latter. Purple Sky was formed by three unlikely cigar makers: Hector, once an ex-dealer turned spiritual seeker; Tommy, an ex-addict with frenetic energy; and Paul, a jokester with warmth and wit. Together, they turned their chaotic pasts into a mysterious brand inspired by Breaking Bad. Their mascot—El Diablo—is a figure spotted on murals and whispered about in the Southwest, always with an air of myth. When I first heard about this cigar, I expected a San Andrés wrapper (Mexico’s classic export). But instead, I was floored: a Mexican Habano wrapper, something I had never encountered. What followed was a smoke unlike any other—strange, complex, unforgettable. Delivered by hand from Mexico (in exchange for Bitcoin, no less), this release is shrouded in myth and mystery. Yet the truth is undeniable: it’s a masterpiece that shouldn’t exist, and it may never be made again. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with black pepper, cedar, dried apple chips, vanilla, and leather, wrapped in cola syrup sweetness. Retrohale explodes with baked cinnamon and warm apple pie notes. A strange yet delicious sweetness lingers, like whipped meringue or sugar cane. Second Third: Heavy cedar dominates with dried fig, candied almond, and simple syrup. Vanilla runs through it, balanced by buttered bread and charred wood. Retrohale delivers candied ginger, cola, and spice. Final Third: Intensifies into butterscotch, caramel, Red Hot candy, cumin, curry-like spice, turmeric, and charred cedar. Musty leather and woody undertones frame the finish, leaving a savory, sweet, and fiery crescendo. Why It Belongs in Privada El Diablo Del Desierto belongs in Privada because it represents the very edge of cigar exploration—something so rare, so unique, it may never be recreated. From its mysterious origins to its one-of-a-kind Mexican Habano wrapper, this cigar defies expectation. Privada exists to bring you the impossible, and this cigar is living proof that sometimes the best blends come from the most unlikely hands.

Originally created for a client who walked away, it now finds its rightful place in your hands. This cigar carries a piece of Chico’s defiance and pride.

With every draw, you’re smoking a story of perseverance, of a blender finally stepping into the light after years of doing the invisible work behind the curtain. Flavor Journey First Third: Cocoa and oats lead, with floral notes, oak, and a powdery chocolate smoke that caresses the palate. Bitter chocolate, raisins, and black pepper arrive, followed by a spiced fruit twang reminiscent of mango sprinkled with red pepper and lime.

Cotton candy sweetness plays with oak and cocoa, while the retrohale delivers powdery black pepper and citrus. Tangy and rich, it’s a revelation in balance. Final Third: The profile deepens into lemons, sesame seed, oak, and black pepper. Cocoa returns with force, riding a wave of creamy smoke. Retrohale explodes with bitter chocolate, sugar, cream, and a peppery finish. Imagine lemon pepper dusted over chocolate and oak—that’s Big Snuff in its finale. Why It Belongs in Privada Because Privada doesn’t just chase cigars—we chase stories. This cigar embodies everything we stand for: rare tobacco, uncompromising artistry, and the belief that time transforms good cigars into legends. Big Snuff is not a rushed release or a rebrand. It’s seven years of waiting, resting, and becoming. And now it’s yours.

Madonna Aged 2+ Years
Madonna Aged 2+ Years Size: 5×52Vitola: RobustoWrapper: HavanaBinder: Piloto CubanoFillers: San Vicente, Piloto, HabanoFlavor Notes: Honey, hay, canned peach, oak, cedar, cinnamon, coffee bean, vanilla, peanut butter, white pepperPairing Notes: Scotch whisky, roasted nuts, cream soda, arroz con pollo, roast pork, cinnamon schnapps, vanilla latte, drunken noodles, caramelManufacturer: Tabacalera Puente Privada Storytelling At Privada, we are always unearthing hidden treasures and forgotten stories, and few are as fascinating as the tale of the other Eladio. While most aficionados know Eladio Diaz as the legendary blender behind Davidoff for three decades, fewer know that he has a brother—also named Eladio. Known by the nickname “Chebede,” this brother has quietly shaped Dominican blending history alongside him, and now his work takes center stage at Tabacalera Puente. The Madonna Aged 2+ Years is a tribute to that legacy, carrying forward the classic Dominican profile that once defined some of the most iconic white and gold labels in cigar history. It’s a style rooted in elegance, subtlety, and finesse—qualities that only true masters can achieve. With over two years of aging, Madonna reveals the harmony and depth of Dominican tobaccos at their peak, inviting you to step back into a golden era of refined smoking. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with honey and hay layered over an aged, mushroom-like mustiness. A canned peach sweetness hits the tip of the tongue, while oak and white pepper add structure. Cinnamon joins the mix, creating a rich and nostalgic Dominican profile with velvety smoke. Second Third: Cedar rises above oak, sharpened by an apricot twang. Cinnamon remains steady, balanced by notes of forest floor, faint vanilla, and coffee bean. The retrohale is silky, carrying white pepper and soft spice. Final Third: The experience deepens into roasted coffee bean, peanut butter, oak, cedar, and a return of cinnamon. Creamy, dense smoke lingers long on the palate, a classic display of Dominican craftsmanship matured through time. Why It Belongs in Privada This cigar represents more than tobacco—it’s a story of lineage, secrecy, and forgotten mastery. The Madonna reminds us that behind every legendary blender, there are often others whose talents remain in the shadows. Privada brings Chebede’s work to light, offering members an authentic Dominican experience steeped in history and refined through patience.

Newman Cigar Co. (Nicaraguan Factory) Privada Storytelling I’m talking ’bout The Good Life. And yet, when this cigar first debuted, some people couldn’t believe it—me putting my own name on a cigar. At first, I wanted it to be released under J.C. Newman, but they politely declined, saying it wouldn’t be the right look. So I did what we always do at Privada: I created something bold, personal, and unapologetic. The band, inspired by the legendary Beverly Hills Hotel, was my amateur Photoshop project, but it symbolized everything this cigar stood for: indulgence, glamour, and the pursuit of life’s finer things. Some members got upset, wanting only other brands, not “ours.” But the truth remains—Privada is not a brand. Privada is the curator, the storyteller, the finder of the rarest leaves and the boldest blends. And this cigar? It’s a showcase of Connecticut Broadleaf tobacco that has been cultivated for over a century—a leaf with history, depth, and soul. Made at the Newmans’ Nicaraguan factory, this rendition of The Good Life may be the best yet. Aged for over a year and a half, it brings out everything Broadleaf was meant to be: funky, flavorful, and unforgettable. Flavor Journey First Third: Bursts of chocolate, peanuts, cream, red pepper, and sarsaparilla. A salty, peppery texture lays the groundwork, joined by baked bread, sesame, and a subtle red berry tang. Second Third: Golden honey and milky chocolate take center stage, layered with white pepper, sweet syrup, Raisinets, and cedar. A nostalgic note of Smarties candy creeps in, playful and unexpected. Final Third: The finale is floral and complex, with raspberry, raisin bread, passionfruit, tart fruit, horseradish, and chocolate weaving together. A bold raisin retrohale underscores this cigar’s complexity. Why It Belongs in Privada This cigar is a statement of identity. It represents what Privada is all about: finding the best tobaccos, collaborating with masters, and refusing to be boxed in by convention. It’s a Broadleaf experience unlike any other—steeped in history, aged to perfection, and curated exclusively for our members.

Yet nothing prepared us for the day he called unexpectedly to say, “Your Privada exclusive is ready.” No negotiations. No planning. Just pure passion and generosity, rolled into a project meant only for our members. The result was the Stallone Exclusivo Privada, a cigar unlike anything we had ever seen before. From the moment it arrived—with cellophane stamped with the Privada logo—it felt like history. That sheen, that sumptuous box press, and then the blend: San Andrés wrapper aged three years, Venezuelan Burley binder aged five years in rum casks, Nicaraguan fillers aged four years, with Ometepe tobacco finished in oak. This was not just a cigar; it was a statement. A wild experiment in tobacco aging and treatment that somehow came together in perfect balance. After over five years of Privada-controlled aging, it has evolved even further. What began as bold and mysterious is now rich, creamy, and layered with flavors no other cigar on the market can match. This is why Privada exists—to bring members something so singular, so experimental, that smoking it feels like uncovering a hidden chapter in tobacco history. Flavor Journey First Third: Vegetal and smoky with barnyard and cocoa aromas. The cold draw recalls cherry pipe tobacco and licorice, while the foot offers chocolate and rich tobacco. The smoke is creamy and chocolate-laden, balanced with bread crust, red pepper retrohale, BBQ jerky, and teriyaki glaze. Cinnamon lingers in the retro as the flavors weave into balance. Second Third: The teriyaki glaze intensifies, paired with toasted rye bread, milk chocolate, and a saline edge. Retrohale sharpens with cinnamon spice. The smoke texture becomes rich cream, lifted by a lemon-espresso brightness. Apricot joins chocolate and rye, showcasing an uncommon but harmonious interplay. Final Third: Chocolate, cinnamon, and oak dominate the retrohale, while the draw features creamy cocoa, lemon, apricot, earth, and medium roast coffee. Rye bread returns as the profile drifts toward pie-like flavors—pecan, apple cider vinegar, and sweet vanilla. Balanced, indulgent, and unlike anything else in the Privada vault. Why It Belongs in Privada This cigar is the definition of why Privada exists. A spontaneous act of generosity by Tony Barrios became a once-in-a-lifetime experiment in aging and fermentation. Rum-cask binders, oak-aged Ometepe fillers, and years of Privada care have created a cigar no one else in the industry could have imagined. Bold, balanced, experimental, and aged to perfection—this is the Privada promise in physical form.
