Where the Evil Eye warned and foresaw, the Hamsa wards off negative forces, carrying centuries of symbolism in its palm-shaped imagery. Both releases share Guillermo Peña’s striking artwork and blending artistry, uniting ancient tradition with modern craftsmanship. Wrapped in a rare American Connecticut Broadleaf, the Hamsa is a cigar of strength, richness, and balance — a leaf prized for its bold flavor yet seldom accessible at this level of value. Aged for one year and produced at Peña’s Estelí factory, it reflects the vibrancy of Nicaragua’s “new Havana” while offering a smoking experience that feels timeless and protective. Flavor Journey Opening Act: Cocoa, cedar, and black pepper open with rustic charm. Cream, sweet syrup, baker’s spice, and bread crust follow, finishing with notes of sweet breads and sugar cream dusted in white pepper. Mid-Session Revelations: Simple syrup, cocoa, cream, and white pepper are joined by rich dark chocolate and warm baking spices, deepening the body of the smoke. The Grand Finale: Cocoa returns alongside cedar, baking spice, vanilla extract, and bread notes. White pepper and white sugar give the closing a sweet, lingering finish. Why It Belongs in Privada The Hamsa represents exactly what Privada stands for: history, artistry, and exclusivity. With its symbolic roots, rare wrapper, and careful craftsmanship, it is both a meaningful collectible and a flavorful smoke. This release proves again that Privada is about more than cigars — it’s about stories, symbols, and the connections they create.

Members snatched them up immediately, drawn to the iconic purple band and the powerhouse Nicaraguan puro inside. At that time, the cigar was vibrant, bold, and bursting with youthful intensity. Now, after three years of Privada aging, this redux is something else entirely. The oily Corojo ’99 wrapper glistens with maturity, and the blend of Criollo ’98 and Corojo ’99 long-fillers has fused into a seamless tapestry of flavor. The anticipation has paid off: what was once fiery and energetic is now refined, balanced, and impossibly smooth. This isn’t just a cigar—it’s a glimpse into what patience, soil, and craft can achieve. The Supreme Leaf has become a modern classic for Aganorsa. But the PCC Exclusive 6×50 Box Press remains a Privada signature, a size that belongs to this club alone, matured into an experience you cannot find anywhere else. Flavor Journey First Third: Bursts with Nicaraguan character—bright orange, apricot, cream, red pepper, and fresh cedar. The volcanic soils of Estelí and Jalapa shine through with vibrant spice and sweetness, underpinned by a faint berry note. Second Third: Red pepper and apricot persist, joined by cream and sharp cedar. The smoke grows richer, bringing in aromas of pilon-fermented tobacco, canned peaches, and clouds tinged with charcoal. Full-flavored, bold, and distinctly Nicaraguan. Final Third: The cigar softens slightly, but the richness remains. Apricot and red pepper weave with cream, cedar, and nuttiness. A subtle sweetness lingers on the finish, leaving you wanting more as the nub burns hot. Why It Belongs in Privada The Aganorsa Supreme Leaf has become a phenomenon, but only Privada members can access this exclusive 6×50 box press redux. With three years of careful aging, it delivers an experience far beyond the original—refined, balanced, and steeped in Nicaraguan heritage. This is what Privada does best: securing exclusives, aging them with care, and reintroducing them at the peak of perfection.

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. For years, this cigar was an intimate treasure, shared only with friends and relatives of the family. Now, with rare permission—and without the use of their sacred name or logo—a small allotment of this dessert-like masterpiece has been released exclusively through the Limited Cigar Association. Cocoa Di Padre is more than a cigar; it is an edible memory transformed into smoke, the taste of Italy’s legacy of indulgence reimagined in tobacco form.

Retrohale introduces hints of nutmeg and cinnamon, recalling a warm Italian bakery at dawn.

Cedar and soft pepper weave in for balance. Final Third: Darker, richer notes emerge—espresso, charred oak, and spiced cocoa—leaving a lingering sweetness reminiscent of tiramisu dusted with cocoa powder. Why It Belongs in Privada Privada exists to unearth treasures meant for the few. Cocoa Di Padre is a cigar born from private indulgence, never intended for the world, and that is exactly why it belongs here. 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.

And what better way to mark the season than with a lancero that embodies both power and finesse? The AJ Fernandez Scrooge Aged 2+ Years is our quarterly nod to the lancero lovers out there, but this one carries a special weight. Crafted by the youngest-ever recipient of Cigar Journal’s Lifetime Achievement Award, AJ Fernandez himself, this cigar shows why Nicaragua has claimed its throne as the modern cigar capital. The band art takes a nostalgic turn, reminding us of illustrated tales from childhood—ironic, given this cigar is anything but child’s play.

Espinosa Cigars 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.

American Bully

Crafted at AJ Fernandez’s Tabacalera Annex factory in Estelí, this Privada exclusive channels raw power with refined balance. Like the breed it's named after, it may appear aggressive at first glance, but beneath the muscular exterior is complexity, loyalty to the craft, and undeniable charm. Wrapped in oily Mexican San Andrés and filled with aged Nicaraguan and Dominican tobaccos, this cigar was built for those who aren’t afraid to stand out. It barks with strength but never bites—delivering a layered, slow-burning experience that transitions between robust and smooth with a kind of streetwise elegance. This is not just a cigar; it’s a declaration. A flex for the bold, the misunderstood, and the loyal few who know that strength and sophistication can—and should—coexist. Flavor Journey From the first puff, American Bully delivers molasses and dark cocoa with a dry pepper kick through the retrohale. The middle third opens with roasted nuts and bitter cherry wrapped in savory umami, while leather and charred oak usher in the final third, bringing earth and spice in unison with a black coffee finish. Retrohales sharpen and soften with pacing, rewarding patience with complexity. Why It Belongs in Privada This is the kind of cigar that would never make it to mainstream shelves. Too bold, too rich, too unapologetically itself. But in the hands of Privada, it becomes a statement piece—a rare collaboration between authenticity and aggression. This cigar reflects what Privada stands for: the brave, the boutique, the beautifully imperfect. A cigar for those who know what it means to be misunderstood, and proudly so. Production Notes American Bully was rolled in a single small batch at the Tabacalera Annex facility, which AJ Fernandez created specifically to produce limited runs for boutique partners. The blend was initially developed as a house favorite but was never greenlit for mass production until Privada discovered its potential. Production was capped and allocated exclusively through Limited Cigar Association retailers.

A richness that keeps you focused and a complexity that rewards every pause between swings. The family behind Gilligan Golf wasn’t interested in shortcuts. They worked for years to ensure consistency and enjoyment, the kind of cigar that could define a brand. And with the Churchill Original, they’ve done it. Flavor Journey First Third: Peanut butter richness mingles with black pepper, cedar, cream, and cocoa butter. Accents of hay, berry tea, and a surprising banana mofongo note create intrigue. Second Third: The cigar smooths into cedar, white pepper, cream, and a delicate dried pear sweetness. Balanced, velvety, and refined. Final Third: The finale is golden and complex—golden raisins, strong white pepper, cream, oak, golden cereal, graham, agave, wheat bread, florals like white jasmine, and fruit tea. A crescendo of richness with tannic grip and lingering cedar. Why It Belongs in Privada The Gilligan Golf Churchill Original isn’t just a cigar—it’s a mission statement. A family declaring that true lifestyle brands begin with authenticity, and nothing is more authentic than tobacco aged, tested, and perfected for the long game. This stick doesn’t just smoke well—it represents dedication, tradition, and vision.

The cigar that defined a season, a vibe, and a moment in Privada history. Mango Cedar wasn’t born in a corporate boardroom or designed for market trends—it was the personal smoke of Angel, a factory worker at Tabacalera Tolupan in Honduras. Unlike master blenders creating for prestige brands, Angel crafted this for himself, the only cigar he smoked. That authenticity is felt in every puff. Privada members alone were given access to these gems. Dressed beautifully to stand out, this cigar embodies what Honduran terroir can do when guided not by marketing but by love and instinct. Mango Cedar balances raw energy with surprising finesse, a true summer cigar that has now matured into a timeless piece of Privada heritage.

A tangy, salty edge ties the sensations together. Second Third: Balance emerges. Fruits and cedar stay dominant, joined by leather and spice. Creamy oak smoke mingles with florals, mango, and a subtle salty minerality. The intensity remains, but now with depth and poise. Final Third: Vanilla enters gracefully, turning the mango into a creamsicle-like sensation. Spices, pepper, and leather still hold their ground, but the interplay of fruit and cream creates a finish that is indulgent, layered, and unforgettable. Why It Belongs in Privada Mango Cedar represents the soul of discovery. It was never intended for the market—it was one man’s private expression of flavor and love for tobacco. That purity is what Privada is all about: uncovering cigars that would never otherwise reach the public, then aging them to perfection. With more than 4 years of maturity, Mango Cedar has evolved into a benchmark Honduran cigar, worthy of its place in Privada’s catalog of legendary finds.

Born from the creative heartbeat of the La Zona factory, this series doesn’t chase trends; it floats above them, letting the rhythm of each blend speak for itself.

Montenegro President Series Cordial Aged 6+ Years
Montenegro President Series Cordial Aged 6+ Years Size: 5 1/2×53Vitola: Robusto ExtraWrapper: Undisclosed (Montenegro estate-grown, organic)Binder: Undisclosed (Montenegro estate-grown, organic)Fillers: Proprietary blend of Nicaraguan tobaccos grown under the direction of Hector Luis PrietoFlavor Notes: Agave nectar, rawhide, sesame oil, jalapeño spice, mint leaf, cherry blossom, craisin, white chocolate, tamarindPairing Notes: Over-proof rye bourbon, mint tea with honey, fatty steak, salmon, flan, Jamaican beef patties, orange soda, Tootsie RollsManufacturer: Montenegro Cigars Privada Storytelling Montenegro has built its legend on mystery, patience, and the steady hand of one of Cuba’s greatest growers, Héctor Luis Prieto. When I first smoked their Batista, it was clear this brand was different. But I wanted to know why. After shared meals and long conversations at the Grand Havana Room, the secret surfaced: Prieto not only helped establish Montenegro’s organic farm but brought with him seeds from Cuba’s hallowed soils. He visits Nicaragua twice a year, still tasting the soil itself to determine its quality—a practice as unorthodox as it is brilliant. The President Series Cordial carries this legacy. While the Batista was an elegant revelation, the Cordial is wilder, zestier, unapologetically bold. It is a cigar that embodies Prieto’s fearless farming philosophy and Montenegro’s unwavering dedication to long-term aging. Six years of rest has honed its flavors into something both refined and primal—a smoke that balances rawhide earthiness with perfumed florals and decadent sweetness. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with sweet agave nectar, rawhide, sesame oil, and sugarcane. Red pepper oil lights up the retrohale, delivering a jalapeño-like zing. Smoke is oily, like olive oil, with flashes of mint leaf and curry spice. Herbal parsley and tree bark deepen the rawhide base. Second Third: The profile evolves into mint leaves, maple syrup, agave, dried oregano, and floral perfume—cherry blossom with hints of berry. Wagyu-like fattiness meets Korean BBQ and sesame, offering a savory depth that contrasts beautifully with the sweet and herbal tones. Final Third: White pepper and mint leaf dominate, accented by cherry blossom, craisin, and tamarind. Sweetness lingers with notes of raisin and white chocolate. The rawhide foundation persists, adding rustic weight to an otherwise elegant close. Why It Belongs in Privada The Cordial is proof that Montenegro is more than hype—it’s heritage, craft, and time woven into every puff. With Hector Luis Prieto’s Cuban legacy guiding the farm, Montenegro stands at the pinnacle of boutique luxury. The Cordial isn’t just a cigar, it’s a conversation between Cuba’s soul and Nicaragua’s soil, aged six years to perfection.

Noel, known as the "King of Small Gauge," is a master blender whose reputation has only grown in the past few years. Together, we set out to create something that would not just echo Cuban tradition but elevate it with Nicaraguan soul. We tucked these cigars away in coolers, letting them rest and age quietly. For two long years, they transformed in the shadows—each leaf marrying with the others, flavors deepening, textures softening, and complexity blooming. When I finally lit one after the wait, I knew Noel had given me more than just a cigar. He had given me a memory, a reminder of why we do this—to create timeless experiences that connect people through craft and culture. Flavor Journey First Third: Sweet syrup and cedar layer over hazelnut, toast, black coffee, molasses, and even a root-like sarsaparilla note. A bold, almost nostalgic opening. Second Third: The sweetness fades into cedar and tree bark, bringing an earthy core. Toast and roasted nuts remain, while herbal and medicinal undertones add depth. Creaminess intensifies, and the retrohale blooms with white pepper creaminess. Final Third: Roasted nuts rise again, joined by black coffee and earthy tones. The finale is marked by a smoky charcoal finish, leaving behind a robust and memorable aftertaste. Why It Belongs in Privada The Reserva Rojas is a perfect example of why Privada exists. It’s a collaboration between friends who live and breathe tobacco, a cigar aged patiently until the time was right. It’s also proof that boutique blending, when paired with time, can rival the classics. This cigar belongs in Privada because it represents loyalty, craftsmanship, and the pursuit of perfection in every puff.

D'Crossier Cigars D'Crossier Habano Aged 7+ Years

Santana of D’Crossier is pure wizardry. Born in Cuba and shaped by the rhythms of his homeland, Santana has always been known as the cigar maker’s cigar maker—the one other blenders whisper about with admiration. For years in South Florida, his creations set the standard, even as he retreated underground, quietly focusing on tobacco, processes, and tradition. He doesn’t chase the spotlight, he doesn’t market; he simply blends with devotion and lets his cigars speak for themselves. This Habano, aged over 7 years, is a time capsule of Santana’s artistry. Professionally matured in cedar, it isn’t just a cigar—it’s a masterclass in how wood can shape and transform flavor. Where many cigars offer notes reminiscent of cedar, here you taste the cedar itself, layered and woven into every puff. It’s a rare chance to both experience and learn, deepening your palate in the process. Flavor Journey The opening draws you into a cedar forest, unmistakable and alive, with creamy undertones and an earthy barnyard base. A sweetness lingers at the edges—dried fruit and honey kissed with toasted spice. As the cigar develops into the second third, the cedar evolves into richer, sharper woodiness, balanced by cream, toasted almond, and faint pepper. There’s a sophisticated dryness to the smoke that keeps the flavors tight and focused. In the final third, the cigar becomes more contemplative: cedar returns with intensity, layered with leather, roasted nuts, and faint mineral earth. A whisper of sweetness closes the journey, proving the power of age. Why It Belongs in Privada Privada is about education, adventure, and access—and this cigar embodies all three. The D’Crossier Habano Aged 7+ Years is not just a fine cigar but a living lesson in cedar-aging. It teaches you to identify wood not as a background note, but as the centerpiece of a cigar. It also connects members with the wizardry of Santana, one of the most respected but enigmatic figures in modern cigar making. This is a cigar you cannot find just anywhere, and it perfectly represents the Privada promise: discovery, depth, and legacy.
