The Work-N-Class Maduro carries something far rarer—uncompromising quality at an everyman’s price. At just $7.50 a stick, these cigars come directly from a prestigious Estelí factory, the same one responsible for blends that normally command double or even triple the cost. Only a factory with serious pedigree and deep reserves of tobacco could deliver this level of craftsmanship under the radar. The backstory is as bold as the cigar itself: these sticks were likely slated for other premium brands, but shifting contracts and excess inventory left them orphaned. That’s when Privada stepped in, ensuring our community had first access to a cigar that smokes far above its price point. The factory’s anonymity is deliberate—they can’t risk undercutting their own brand clients. But we’ll just say this: if you’ve smoked Nicaraguan icons, you’ve smoked their handiwork. Lighting up a Work-N-Class Maduro feels like discovering a secret only insiders should know. It’s rich, it’s bold, it’s premium through and through—but without the premium markup. This is Privada flexing its muscle on behalf of the people who made the club what it is. Flavor Journey First Third: Earthy cedar and cocoa powder open the show, layered with espresso and a bold punch of black pepper. The smoke is thick and creamy, coating the palate with a sweetness that balances the spice. Second Third: Dark chocolate notes take center stage, joined by roasted nuts and a leathery undertone. The pepper mellows, while subtle mineral and earthy flavors begin to emerge. Final Third: A crescendo of charred oak, molasses, and espresso, finished with a lingering sweetness of cream and cocoa. The retrohale provides a bold spice kick, reminding you of its Nicaraguan pedigree. Why It Belongs in Privada This is Privada’s mission made manifest: delivering world-class cigars to our members that the mainstream market will never see. The Work-N-Class Maduro is a reminder that greatness doesn’t always need to wear a luxury band—it just needs to smoke like one. For the price, there is simply nothing better.

For decades, he was the blending mastermind behind Davidoff, crafting some of the most celebrated cigars in modern history. After departing in 2017, he continued his journey with the rebirth of Delectados, a brand whispered about in cigar folklore and immortalized on the silver screen in James Bond films. With Privada, Eladio revives the magic—only this time, it’s unbanded. The Unbanded Delectados is as much a statement as it is a cigar.

Owned by Gennaro Lettieri, this operation exists to supply a single client. Every leaf grown under Lettieri’s watchful eye is destined for one destination—and one destination only. Yet, in a rare twist of fate, he kept a small portion of his extraordinary tobacco for himself. That sacred stash, never sold and never shared, became the heart of The Volute. To bring it to life, Lettieri entrusted Claudio Sgroi, one of the industry’s most respected artisans, to craft a cigar worthy of the leaf’s origin. The result is a limited run that whispers of the Amazon itself: humid earth, wild botanicals, and a richness that feels untouched by modern commerce. It is as though the rainforest has been pressed into a cigar, rolled carefully in secret, and released only to those fortunate enough to encounter it through Privada and the Limited Cigar Association. Flavor Journey First Third: Earth-driven and bold, with notes of rainforest soil, dark wood, and exotic spices. A natural sweetness lingers at the edges, softening the intensity. Second Third: A medley of florals and aromatics arises, evoking the lush vegetation of the Amazon. Hints of nutmeg, cacao husk, and roasted nuts appear, balanced by creamy smoke. Final Third: The cigar deepens into resinous wood, black tea, and faint citrus peel. The sweetness lingers, joined by a mineral-rich complexity that marks the Volute as unlike anything else in the humidor. Why It Belongs in Privada The Volute is an invitation into the Amazon, one of the most inaccessible and mysterious sources of tobacco in the world. To hold this cigar is to hold history, rarity, and privilege. Gennaro Lettieri does not sell his tobacco, yet here it is—offered in partnership with Claudio Sgroi and the LCA. This is the type of release that defines Privada: a blend that can’t be duplicated, can’t be negotiated, and can’t be found anywhere else. It belongs here because it proves that even in a world of endless cigars, there are still secrets worth chasing.

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.

Created in 2021 for The Quail at Pebble Beach, an event synonymous with rare automobiles, elegance, and prestige, this cigar was offered exclusively to a small circle of the world’s elite. Sponsored by Rolex and Wolves Whiskey, its release symbolized the union of time, taste, and tradition. Fast forward five years and this cigar has become more than a smoke—it has matured into a story you can hold in your hand. Aged patiently in Costa Rica, it carries the aura of forbidden fruit: rare, almost mythic, and unattainable outside of its original moment in time.

Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with a refined interplay of espresso, dark chocolate, and oak. A backdrop of leather and black pepper provides structure, while hints of dried fruit add richness. Second Third: The profile deepens into honeyed sweetness with toasted almond and mineral earth. The smoke is velvety, carrying a balance of sweetness and spice reminiscent of aged fine wine. Final Third: The cigar closes with bold espresso, cedar, and cacao nibs, softened by crème brûlée sweetness and a lingering, elegant pepper finish. Every puff affirms its rare, luxurious origin. Why It Belongs in Privada Privada exists to preserve history, and The Quail 2021 Event Cigar is history in its purest form: a release tied to one of the world’s most prestigious gatherings, crafted for an audience accustomed to Rolex timepieces and Wolves Whiskey pours. By aging it for five years, Privada transforms this already rare cigar into an artifact of culture and craft. It belongs in Privada because no other club could ever unearth and share something this rare, this storied, and this unattainable.

The Good Life Torpedo Aged 1.5+ Years
The Good Life Torpedo Aged 1.5+ Years Size: 5 1/2×52Vitola: TorpedoWrapper: Connecticut BroadleafBinder: NicaraguanFillers: NicaraguanFlavor Notes: Chocolate, peanuts, cream, root beer, golden honey, Smarties candy, raspberry, raisin bread, passionfruit, tart fruit, floralsPairing Notes: Chocolate cake, champagne, amber lager, cognac, chocolate-covered almonds, steak dinner, egg cream soda, ice cream sundaeManufacturer: J.C. 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.

Rolled entirely by hand in Costa Rica, only 5,000 cigars were ever produced, ensuring that each one remains a rarefied treasure. The tobaccos, drawn from three different countries, remain undisclosed. What matters most here is the experience—the privilege of holding in your hand the same cigar designed for the man himself. When you light The GOAT, you’re not just smoking—you’re stepping into greatness. It’s a victory lap, a celebration, and a reminder that legends are built with patience, skill, and relentless dedication. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with creamy wood and leather, quickly joined by a subtle sweetness of dried fruits. Cocoa dust lingers on the tongue while black pepper zips through the retrohale. Second Third: The body deepens into espresso and rich baking spices, with waves of leather and cedar. A velvety smoke texture smooths out the pepper, creating a layered and balanced profile. Final Third: Bold, elegant, and resonant. Dark cocoa, espresso, and oak dominate with flashes of spice and subtle sweetness. The finish is long, echoing the endurance and dominance of its namesake. Why It Belongs in Privada This isn’t just another rare release—it’s a cigar born of legend. With only 5,000 in existence, The GOAT exemplifies Privada’s mission: to bring members cigars that no one else can. Its Costa Rican craftsmanship, imposing size, and tribute to the greatest of all time make it more than a cigar—it’s a legacy piece.

Tampa Rollers Aged 9+ Years
Tampa Rollers Aged 9+ Years Size: 5×52Vitola: RobustoWrapper: UnknownBinder: UnknownFillers: UnknownFlavor Notes: Golden hay, charred almond, cedar, floral sweetness, white pepper, menthol, light berry, smokier woods on the finish.Pairing Notes: Coffee with sugar, white chocolate, cookies and cream ice cream, cream soda, iced tea, rum and Coke, Coca-Cola.Manufacturer: Tampa Rollers (original production, warehoused 9 years) Privada Storytelling Every so often, a cigar drifts into Privada’s orbit that feels less like a product and more like a time capsule. Tampa Rollers is exactly that. A cigar with nearly a decade of rest, sitting quietly in storage until the moment was right. A whisper from another era. The brand itself is shrouded in rumor—one of its founders is said to have been an original partner of Rocky Patel, though the truth has been lost in the shuffle of time. Attempts to track down the makers turned into dead ends, and today Tampa Rollers exists mostly as a bundle brand, rolling cigars at events and selling stock that looks nothing like what you’re holding now. What we do know: these cigars were warehoused nine years ago, tucked away by a friend of a friend, forgotten until now. What you’re smoking is a rare survivor of another age in American cigar history, with all the complexity that nearly a decade of patient rest brings. This is history in your hand—and an example of why #weareprivada exists. Flavor Journey First Third: Golden hay, charred almond, and cedar set the stage, with white pepper and florals lighting up the retrohale. There’s a richness that can only come with long rest, giving the smoke a golden, aged quality. Second Third: Cedar grows stronger, balanced by light menthol and a faint berry twang that floats in and out. The hay note remains dominant, but with more structure now, more depth. Final Third: The wood turns smoky, almost campfire-like, while the pepper lingers. The finish is dry, refined, and hauntingly elegant, leaving behind the unmistakable signature of true age. Why It Belongs in Privada Tampa Rollers is not a regular production cigar. It’s not about flashy bands, hype drops, or modern marketing. It’s a piece of lost history—an aged relic discovered and curated for the few who can appreciate it. Privada exists to bring stories like this back into the light. To remind us that behind every cigar there’s a journey, a mystery, and a moment that will never happen again.

For over 30 years, Eladio was the quiet genius behind Davidoff’s most celebrated blends. Now, his mastery continues under his own banner, and Privada members have access to cigars that would easily command $30+ on the open market. The Ox Blood iteration of Delectados embraces a darker, moodier profile than the original LCA release. With its rich, syrupy sweetness, musty elegance, and holiday warmth, it feels like December distilled into smoke. This is the kind of cigar that whispers rather than shouts, drawing you into its complexity with the confidence of a blender who doesn’t need to prove anything. For Privada, this isn’t just a cigar—it’s a seat at Eladio’s table. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with aged cedar, syrupy canned peaches, and a signature mustiness that marks Eladio’s touch. Sweet smoke with black pepper on the retrohale and white pepper on the palate sets the foundation. Second Third: A shift toward pine and citrus emerges, mingling with dried fruits and cream. The introduction of root-like flavors evokes craft root beer, layering nostalgia into the profile. Final Third: Mustiness fades, allowing cedar to return alongside nuanced notes of berries and peaches. The balance deepens, with creamy smoke carrying the experience into a refined finish reminiscent of Davidoff’s most coveted limited editions. Why It Belongs in Privada Opportunities like this are rare—cigars by Eladio Diaz, crafted exclusively for Privada members, released at prices far below the market standard. The Ox Blood is proof of what Privada stands for: access to greatness, respect for heritage, and a constant push toward discovery. It belongs here because it captures the essence of what only this club can provide—an intimate taste of a master blender’s genius.

An Argentinian cowboy with an Ivy League education, he straddles two worlds with ease: the raw, earthy life of a horseman and the refined sophistication of a global businessman. With Stallone Cigars, he brings that duality to the leaf, creating blends that are bold yet nuanced, rustic yet elegant. The Zaino Broadleaf Aged 3+ Years was born from hard-fought negotiations between Tony and Privada. At first, the deal seemed doomed—Tony wasn’t sure what Privada was about, and I wasn’t sure he understood our mission. But after stepping back, we came together, and this Broadleaf treasure finally made its way to the club. It’s paired with its sibling, the Castaño San Andres, but Zaino stands tall as a powerhouse on its own. A cigar for the bold smoker, it’s unapologetic in its strength yet balanced with a sophistication that reflects Tony himself. Flavor Journey First Third: Sweetened chocolate and raisins collide with leather, earth, and sharp red pepper. Cedar dominates the mouthfeel, transitioning into oak on the finish. Yeast, bread, wood, chocolate, and floral pepper dance across the palate. Second Third: The smoke mellows, dark and sweet like chocolate-covered cherries. Leather, wood, and black pepper persist, joined by dried peach, sugar, and cocoa. Bread and salt add depth, while the creamy texture builds. Final Third: A perfectly rounded finale—smooth, sweet, and balanced. Cocoa, berries, and bread mingle with oak and white pepper, leaving a fragrant, lingering finish that proves this cigar is a full-bodied masterpiece. Why It Belongs in Privada The Zaino Broadleaf is a cigar that almost never was. Born from tension, revived through persistence, it now stands as one of Privada’s most flavorful and complex releases. Its marriage of power and finesse mirrors the Privada ethos: pushing the industry forward while honoring the artistry behind each leaf. This is the kind of cigar that defines the Privada journey.

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.

Special Sauce Aged 5 Years
Special Sauce Aged 5 Years Size: 6×42Vitola: CoronaWrapper: Nicaraguan from Montenegro FarmBinder: Nicaraguan from Montenegro FarmFillers: Nicaraguan from Montenegro FarmFlavor Notes: Molasses, graham cracker, apricot, raspberry, cedar, toasted oak, honey, vanilla, black and red pepper, ginger, tea-like floralsPairing Notes: Fried chicken sandwich, chicken nuggets, cherry pie pocket, Sprite, strawberry shake, dark rumManufacturer: Montenegro Cigars (Nicaragua) Privada Storytelling Every once in a while, the phone rings with something extraordinary. This time, it was Montenegro. Six months ago they presented me with two mysterious coronas—similar, yet not the same. Both shared wrapper and binder from their fabled farm, but the fillers diverged, each carrying its own story. I tried them all and knew immediately: these weren’t just cigars, they were aged treasures, biding their time in the shadows of one of the most enigmatic cigar houses in the world. Montenegro itself is wrapped in secrecy. Founded by two Persian gentlemen who once shared cigars at the Grand Havana Room nearly two decades ago, the brand’s history reads like a novel. They traveled to Cuba, hired the country’s most renowned grower, and convinced him to bring his mastery to Nicaragua. The result? A farm and factory unlike any other, producing cigars that are aged for years, hidden from the spotlight, waiting for their moment to shine. Special Sauce is one of those moments. Aged a full five years, it is a testament to time, patience, and privilege. Once reserved for billionaires and insiders, it now lands in your humidor. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with herbal notes, graham cracker sweetness, cedar, and dried tea leaves. Apricot and ginger add a delicate fruitiness while toasted oak lays down a steady foundation. Second Third: Evolves into honey graham, vanilla, black pepper, and charred oak. Powdery smoke carries ginger and spice with a smooth, balanced creaminess. Final Third: Intensifies with red pepper, cream, tea-like florals, and a richer charred oak. A burned graham cracker sensation ties it together with savory complexity. Why It Belongs in Privada This isn’t just another boutique release—it’s Montenegro DNA. Their cigars are rare, aged, and crafted under a veil of secrecy. The Special Sauce reflects the Privada philosophy: uncovering hidden gems from the world’s most exclusive producers and sharing them with our members before anyone else. This is not just a cigar—it’s an introduction into a world few ever get to experience.
