Valentines Day Chocolate
Size: 5 1/2 x 56Vitola: Box Pressed FiguradoWrapper: AJ Fernandez Hybrid MaduroBinder: NicaraguanFillers: NicaraguanOrigin: NicaraguaBlender: AJ FernandezFactory: Tabacalera AnnexFlavor Notes: Dark chocolate, cocoa powder, brownie batter, espresso bean, toasted oak, subtle black pepperPairing Notes: Espresso, port, dark rum, barrel aged stout Privada Storytelling Some cigars hint at chocolate. This one screams it. Born inside Tabacalera Annex under the watchful eye of AJ Fernandez, this box pressed Figurado was blended around one obsession — depth. Density. Chocolate in every layer. AJ has been quietly refining a hybrid Maduro wrapper that pushes sweetness without sacrificing structure. Dark. Thick. Oil rich. This leaf carries the kind of cocoa intensity most smokers only find in aged tobacco tucked away in a cabinet. The Figurado shape makes it even rarer. The tapered head concentrates the first draws, delivering a blast of dark cocoa and espresso before the body opens and the cigar finds its full expression. Box pressed for added compression, it burns slow and deliberate. This is not milk chocolate sweetness. This is baker’s chocolate. Brownie crust. Cocoa dust on your fingers. A cigar built for people who want flavor with gravity. Flavor Journey The first draw is concentrated and intense. Bitter dark chocolate and espresso bean lead the charge with a faint crack of black pepper just behind them. As the cigar opens, sweetness builds organically — brownie batter, cocoa powder, and toasted oak creating body and texture. The Nicaraguan puro core brings earth and balance, preventing the sweetness from ever becoming soft. Midway through, the profile grows creamy and dense, like melted dark chocolate with structure. The final third leans heavier into roasted cocoa, charred oak, and lingering espresso, finishing long, rich, and undeniably satisfying. Why It Belongs in Privada Privada exists for cigars that push a singular idea all the way. This is chocolate executed with discipline.Rare box pressed Figurado format.Hybrid Maduro wrapper still evolving in AJ’s portfolio.Nicaraguan puro construction with real power and balance.

Now, after five years of Privada aging, the cigar has transformed into something remarkable. The hybrid Criollo wrapper softens into a silkier texture, the binder and fillers fuse into seamless harmony, and the retrohale develops into a floral-pepper signature that has become Chico’s calling card.

Barrel Aged Edition #1
Barrel Aged Edition #1 Size: 6×52Vitola: ToroWrapper: SumatraBinder: NicaraguanFillers: NicaraguanFlavor Notes: Oak, bourbon sweetness, spice, cedar, roasted nuts, dark chocolatePairing Notes: Bourbon neat, oak-aged stout, spiced rum, dark chocolate, pecan pie, espressoManufacturer: AJ Fernandez at Tabacalera Annex Privada Storytelling The Barrel Aged Edition #1 is where two worlds of craftsmanship collide—Kentucky bourbon heritage meets Nicaraguan cigar artistry. After our first exclusive bourbon collaboration, we convinced Heaven Hill Distillery to let us repurpose their seasoned barrels. These barrels had already held bourbon that Privada members savored—and then they gave new life by aging a cigar created by AJ Fernandez himself. This isn’t an infused cigar. It’s something more refined—tobacco aged in the very oak that once held rich, caramelized bourbon, then meticulously balanced with two-way humidification. The result? A cigar that speaks in whispers of bourbon without ever losing the soul of fine Nicaraguan leaf. Barrel Aged Edition #1 is proof that innovation, when paired with tradition, creates magic. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with toasted oak and a bourbon sweetness that’s subtle yet distinct. Notes of cedar and roasted nuts dance in harmony with faint spice. Second Third: The profile deepens with chocolate and caramel undertones, a velvety smoke that recalls the warmth of a fine pour of bourbon. Hints of vanilla and pepper arrive, adding layers of intrigue. Final Third: Rich earth, oak, and espresso dominate the finish, rounded by lingering sweetness and a bourbon barrel warmth that carries to the last puff. Why It Belongs in Privada Barrel Aged Edition #1 is an expression of what Privada does best—pioneering projects that no one else dares to attempt. This cigar isn’t about gimmicks, it’s about authentic collaboration between two masters of their craft. By bringing Heaven Hill barrels to Tabacalera Annex, we created a cigar unlike anything in the industry—exclusive, flavorful, and true to Privada’s relentless pursuit of originality.

Seattle Grunge Box
Seattle Grunge Box A member named Ken emailed us out of the blue. He’s been a loyal Privada member for years and asked if we would make a cigar to honor his late brother, Layne Staley of Alice in Chains. Of course we said yes. Over time that idea turned into something bigger. We built a small Seattle Grunge themed collection meant to honor the music and the city that created it. The cigars in this box were selected from aged inventory sitting in Privada coolers and vaults for years. Each cigar was chosen because it fit the mood and character of the bands that inspired them.

It was a smash hit—mischievous, bold, and wildly flavorful. But here’s the secret: while you were enjoying that release, we were sitting on another batch made for the holidays. Enter the Grinchy. This cigar swaps a touch of Dominican filler for more Nicaraguan spice, turning a cult favorite into something even more seasonally electric. Bobi himself is as much a part of this story as the cigar. A Dutch box maker turned Dominican rockstar, Bobi is notorious for showing up unannounced with cigars in one hand and a drink in the other, always ready to stir up trouble. He pranks, he laughs, and somehow he makes magic happen in tobacco. That energy is alive in every puff of the Grinchy. It’s festive, a little chaotic, and absolutely unforgettable.

Final Third: Dry butter pecan, maple syrup, and charred oak dominate. As the cigar closes, florals and a bright orange zest linger, wrapping the experience like the last notes of a holiday feast. Why It Belongs in Privada Grinchy is more than a holiday smoke—it’s a piece of Privada culture. It represents what happens when passion, artistry, and a little chaos collide. This cigar delivers seasonal nostalgia and refined craftsmanship in one perfect package. With 3+ years of aging behind it, Grinchy isn’t just playful—it’s a winter classic that showcases Bobi’s unique voice in the cigar world.

Founded by two Beverly Hills investment strategists who cared more about enjoying the best cigars than selling them, Montenegro became a different kind of company. They waited years before releasing anything—aging every leaf for a minimum of five years, most for seven or more, without compromise. They even entrusted famed Cuban farmer Héctor Luis Prieto to manage their organic farm, the only one of its kind that we know of in the industry, where pesticides are rejected in favor of purity and patience. The Montenegro White PCC Aged 7+ Years reflects that philosophy. A true Privada treasure, it represents everything we value: authenticity, rarity, and a taste experience that can’t be rushed. With tobaccos aged over a decade and rested nearly nine years in cedar rooms before arriving to us, this cigar shows what time, patience, and perfection can create. Flavor Journey First Third: Cocoa and cedar arrive with creamy smoke, touched by faint red pepper. Charred oak and tart cherry juice step forward, already signaling the depth that only extreme aging can provide. Second Third: The chocolate deepens into a note reminiscent of Riesen candy. Chewier smoke emerges, carrying white pepper, florals, cedar, and cane syrup. Balance and richness define this section. Final Third: Charred cedar and cocoa remain, accented by apricot, florals, sweet cream, and lingering white pepper. Complexity and subtlety intertwine, reaffirming the magic of true professional aging. Why It Belongs in Privada The Montenegro White PCC stands as proof that luxury cannot be faked. With its farm-to-factory integrity, organic growing, and double-digit years of aging, this cigar elevates what we offer to members. It belongs in Privada not just because it’s rare, but because it is a benchmark of quality—the kind of cigar that redefines expectations and renews faith in the art of long-term aging.

Erik Espinosa, an industry icon whose journey began with giants like Rocky Patel and Drew Estate before founding Espinosa Cigars, has always had an eye for quality and flavor. When AJ Fernández — one of the most celebrated blenders alive — created one of his priciest blends for Espinosa, a band mishap rerouted this luxury project into Privada’s hands. What could have been lost to error instead became legend. Espinosa’s mastery and AJ’s brilliance combine here, creating a cigar that was never meant to fall into the public’s lap at this price point. It’s a moment of fortune — one of those rare times when a mistake becomes history, and collectors reap the reward.

Rojas Bluebonnets PCC Exclusive Aged 3+ Years
Rojas Bluebonnets PCC Exclusive Aged 3+ Years Size: 6 1/2×42Vitola: LonsdaleWrapper: Ecuadorian CorojoBinder: NicaraguanFillers: Nicaraguan CorojoFlavor Notes: Toasted sesame seed, oak, cream, dried peach, apricot jam, butterscotch, blackberry, raspberry, lemon tea, black pepperPairing Notes: Highlands scotch, peach tea, Spanish red wines, cream soda, blackberries, Special K cereal, coffee cake, coffee ice cream, light roast coffeeManufacturer: Noel Rojas for Privada Cigar Club Privada Storytelling The Rojas Bluebonnets is a story that has been waiting patiently to be told. Over three years ago, Noel Rojas himself arrived at my house with 10,000 Bluebonnets and 10,000 KSG Reds, both rolled exclusively for Privada in this elegant Lonsdale vitola. While the Red has since made its way into other humidors and even received a stellar 92 rating, the Bluebonnets remained in our coolers—resting, evolving, and waiting for the right moment. For over two years, Noel asked me monthly when I would release them. And each time, I held them back. Why? Because at Privada, we do not just release cigars—we perfect them. We age, monitor, and nurture them with the same care that collectors give to their most prized bottles of wine or whiskey. The result is not just a cigar but a piece of time itself, transformed by patience into something extraordinary. This is more than a cigar—it’s a testament to friendship, to craftsmanship, and to Privada’s role as the leader in post-production cigar aging. When you light a Bluebonnet, you’re tasting years of quiet anticipation and the artistry of one of the fastest-rising stars in the industry. Flavor Journey First Third: Toasted sesame seed, creamy oak, golden cereal grain, and Italian herbs with a delicate dried peach on the finish. Retrohale delivers black pepper, dried currant, and oak. Second Third: Oak takes the lead, joined by semi-sweet apricot jam, white toast, minerality, and white pepper. The retrohale bursts with blackberry and pepper, gradually maturing into a fruit-forward richness. Final Third: Raspberry, butterscotch, wheat toast, lemon candy, and black tea with honey make for an indulgent, balanced finish. Retrohale shifts to powdery white pepper with lemon-zinger brightness over oak. Why It Belongs in Privada This cigar is history in the making. Born from the hands of Noel Rojas and aged for over three years under the Privada Method, the Bluebonnets are a masterclass in balance, patience, and flavor transformation. It’s an exclusive size, an exclusive story, and one of those rare cigars that remind you why Privada exists—to provide experiences you simply cannot get anywhere else.

Espinosa Cigars Hialeah Gardens Limited Edition Aged 4+ Years
Espinosa Cigars Hialeah Gardens Limited Edition Aged 4+ Years Size: 6×52 ToroVitola: ToroWrapper: Undisclosed (Espinosa LE Selection)Binder: UndisclosedFillers: NicaraguanFlavor Notes: Bourbon oak, barnyard funk, ripe tobacco, maple syrup, milk chocolate, red pepper, toast, wheat, citrus “Sprite” zing, Fruit Loops, graham cracker, fennel, honeysuckle, vanilla, saltPairing Notes: Hershey’s chocolate kisses, butterscotch, cinnamon crumb cake, Fruit Loops, graham crackers, red wine, cognac, bourbon, scotch (non-smoky), Werther’s Originals, root beer, espresso with sugarManufacturer: Espinosa Cigars (La Zona Factory, Estelí Nicaragua) Privada Storytelling The Espinosa Hialeah Gardens Limited Edition is more than just a cigar—it’s a recognition of the truth. For years, we’ve seen cigar names tied to Havana, Cuba, and old-world romanticism. But the reality is different. In modern America, the heart of the cigar trade flows through Hialeah, Hialeah Gardens, and Doral, Florida. If you’ve ever ordered cigars, chances are they’ve passed through this Cuban-American enclave before they reached your hands. When Privada’s Brian posed the question to Erik Espinosa—“Why doesn’t anyone call their cigar the Hialeah?”—Erik laughed. Then he rolled up his sleeves and did it. This blend is a love letter to the area that represents the modern cigar epicenter, where the Cuban spirit thrives outside Havana, built on grit, family, and tradition. Espinosa himself embodies the story: a tough, stout Cuban from the streets who turned passion and hard work into a multi-million-dollar cigar empire. The Hialeah Gardens LE is not just about heritage—it’s about truth becoming tradition. And this cigar, aged 4+ years, delivers that truth in every puff. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with deep oak, red pepper, toast, wheat, and a citrus zing (“Sprite”). Smoke is creamy, retrohale blasts black pepper, and phantom Fruit Loops cereal sweetness appears. Notes of leather, cereal grain, and maple syrup richness add depth. Second Third: Evolves with tobacco richness, leather, fruity zing, oak, graham cracker, and fennel spice. Creaminess ties it together, balancing sweet, tart, and savory. Retrohale remains peppery with a clean cereal finish. Final Third: Closes with honeysuckle, toast, dank oak, vanilla, and salt. Pepper fades to a salty zing, while wheat and florals create a creamy, clean finish. Balanced and elegant, it feels like a culmination of aged, harmonized tobaccos. Why It Belongs in Privada This cigar belongs in Privada because it tells a story of modern cigar reality. While Cuba gets all the romance, Hialeah Gardens is the true lifeblood of today’s cigar industry. This limited edition is a nod to that, crafted by one of Miami’s own, Erik Espinosa. It’s rare, aged, and bold enough to carry the name of the city where the cigar world truly converges.

The patriarch of this family, entranced by the artistry of tobacco, reached out to none other than Dominican master blender Chico Rivas. His request was simple but profound: create a cigar worthy of sitting alongside their century-old chocolate recipes.

Its story weaves together chocolate artisanship, family tradition, and Chico Rivas’ legendary touch. For members of Privada, it’s a chance to taste history otherwise locked away behind the doors of an Italian family’s kitchen.
