Vault Cigars Series 1
Vault Cigars Series 1 Size: Varies (Series 1 selection)Vitola: Toro / Robusto (depending on release)Wrapper: Undisclosed (Vault-aged, Honduran origin)Binder: HonduranFillers: Honduran (Raíces Cubanas-aged selection)Flavor Notes: Cashew butter, vanilla custard, powdered sugar, candied nuts, crème brûlée, leather, florals, Italian herbs, caramel, lemon, pepperPairing Notes: Crème brûlée, vanilla custard, vanilla Oreos, white tea, wheat beer, Islay Scotch, brandy, aged rum, vanilla coffeeManufacturer: Raíces Cubanas (Hugo Sanchez, Honduras) Privada Storytelling Vault Cigars Series 1 represents a rare moment in cigar history. Straight from the famed Raíces Cubanas factory in Honduras, these cigars were never supposed to see the light of day. They were the forgotten batches—the unpaid-for, the misplaced, the sleeping vampires of a legendary factory. When Privada was given access to raid these vaults, the result was nothing short of magic. Raíces Cubanas, helmed by Hugo Sanchez, has been crafting cigars in the Cuban tradition for over 25 years. This is the same factory behind some of the best work for Padilla, Viaje, Alec Bradley, and Illusione. Their vaults, however, held something even more special: cigars left behind to age, resting for years in factory conditions that accelerate maturity far beyond what’s possible stateside. With Series 1, members gain access to flavors that may never be replicated. Vanilla custard, crème brûlée sweetness, candied nuts, and white pepper florals—flavors that rival the finest cigars in the world, and perhaps outdo them. This is not just a release; it’s a chance to taste what happens when time, tradition, and serendipity collide. Flavor Journey First Third: Begins with subtle cashew butter, salt, and floral notes. White pepper ramps up quickly as the flavor expands into vanilla custard, powdered sugar, and candied nuts. Retrohale is leather, salt, full white pepper, and florals—an immediate standout. Second Third: Vanilla custard evolves into crème brûlée, with caramelized sweetness balanced by white pepper and floral umami. Retrohale introduces Italian herbs, tying sweetness with savory depth. Smoke is powdery, creamy, and dessert-like. Final Third: Body intensifies as sweetness, tang, leather, and floral notes merge. Lemon zest, pepper, and oak enter the profile, creating a finish reminiscent of a well-aged Opus X on its best day. Sweet, tangy, salty, and floral—this cigar ends with a climactic flourish. Why It Belongs in Privada Privada is about uncovering what the rest of the industry overlooks, and Vault Cigars Series 1 is the epitome of that mission. These cigars were literally locked away, forgotten until Privada opened the doors. The result is a profile so unique, so luxuriously sweet and floral, that it may never exist again. Only Privada members will taste this moment in history—making Series 1 not just a cigar, but a discovery.

When we sat with Eladio, he entrusted us with a mission: to deliver uncompromised Dominican tobacco to the American palate and to cut through the smoke of marketing misinformation that so often clouds the cigar world. For decades, as the master blender at Davidoff, Eladio crafted masterpieces behind the scenes, rarely able to release a cigar like this under his own name. Tiburón changes that. It is a 100% Dominican puro, a rarity in today’s market where cigars often masquerade as something they’re not. This cigar embodies honesty, purity, and artistry, standing as a beacon of authenticity in a sea of impostors. When Eladio gave us this blend, he gave us a piece of his soul — a Dominican puro that shows what true terroir and craftsmanship taste like when all the elements align. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with honey almond and peaches layered over floral cedar. White pepper spices the retrohale while faint lime rind lingers in the background. Second Third: The profile evolves into florals and refined cedar intertwined with stone fruit, particularly ripe peach. Balance and elegance dominate this portion. Final Third: The journey culminates with apricot, cinnamon, oak, and cream woven into cedar’s backbone, creating a harmonious and masterful close. Why It Belongs in Privada The Tiburón Dominicano belongs in Privada because it represents the heart of what we do — honoring legendary artisans while delivering members something the wider world cannot access. This is Eladio Díaz unleashed, no longer bound by industry constraints. It’s a cigar born of honesty and mastery, a Dominican puro that shows precisely why Privada exists: to bring the rare, the real, and the revolutionary directly to your humidor.

Produced over six years ago by Joya de Nicaragua for a well-known figure whose name remains confidential, this cigar’s story is as much about time as it is about tobacco. Initially stored in a Naples, Florida warehouse for three years before finding their way to Privada, these cigars weren’t an immediate hit. In fact, they sat untouched for another two and a half years—until a quiet Saturday morning revealed just how magical proper aging can be. When the coolers were opened, the unmistakable scent of peat rose like smoke from an Islay scotch, a revelation of what six years had done. What began as a cigar of promise had transformed into a masterpiece of balance and depth, reminding us why we chase age and why Privada exists: to unlock experiences others overlook. This is not just a cigar—it’s an evolution, proof that patience and faith in the leaf always pays off. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with aged oak, moss, peat, and citrus, rounded by cream and black tea. Quickly evolves into powdered sugar, dried fruit, and soft florals. A sensation like thick French toast with cinnamon syrup emerges, sweet yet earthy, with velvety smoke. Second Third: The wood sharpens into aged cedar, the cinnamon lingers with warmth, and baked apple flavors appear. Creamy and balanced, the cigar hums with a harmony only professional aging can create. Final Third: Aged wood, baked fruit, and cinnamon dominate the finish. Creamy smoke softens into refinement, while the retrohale delivers oak, white pepper, florals, and a bouquet of truly matured tobaccos. This is age at its pinnacle. Why It Belongs in Privada The 200 is an example of why Privada exists—to discover, to wait, and to share cigars others might dismiss. What was once passed over has now become an exquisite demonstration of the Privada method of aging. It embodies the spirit of experimentation, the chase for balance, and the reward of patience. For members, this is more than a cigar: it’s a reminder that some of the best things come to those who wait.

Tabacalera Chalet Las Palomitas PCC Aged 1.5+ Years
Tabacalera Chalet Las Palomitas PCC Aged 1.5+ Years Size: 6×52Vitola: ToroWrapper: Connecticut ShadeBinder: UndisclosedFillers: UndisclosedFlavor Notes: Pie crust, honey, toasted cereal, black pepper, butter, golden almond, cedar, whipped cream, orange essencePairing Notes: Peach pie, Honeycomb cereal, coffee, powdered sugar donuts, yellow cake, croissant, scotch, breakfast sausage, waffles, honey, orange tea, Blue Moon with an orange slice, butterscotchManufacturer: Tabacalera Chalet (Nicaragua) Privada Storytelling Las Palomitas is one of those Privada discoveries that proves why this community exists. The story begins in Estelí, Nicaragua, when I was visiting my brother AJ Fernandez. Instead of staying put in the factory, we decided to cruise through town. We ended up at a soccer field where factory workers from across Estelí gather to play, talk, and escape the rolling tables for a bit. Curious stares turned into conversation when my guide told them who I was: el gringo puro—the gringo obsessed with cigars. After a few laughs and cervezas, some of the men revealed they’d been quietly rolling their own cigars in a makeshift chinchalle—a tiny factory set up in what used to be a restaurant. Six rolling stations, dim light, and an aging room that shocked me: thousands of perfectly rolled Connecticut Shade sticks stacked and waiting. They handed me one. I lit it. Within minutes, I knew I had stumbled onto something special. Right then, a deal was made, and history was written. This cigar isn’t about polish or pretense—it’s about pure passion. It’s about the underdogs of Estelí, the ones rolling cigars after their shifts at the big factories, building their dream one leaf at a time. When you smoke the Las Palomitas, you’re not just tasting tobacco—you’re tasting hustle, community, and a little rebellion. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with pie crust, butter, and sugar, immediately giving off a warm pastry quality. A blast of black and red pepper retrohale kicks things up, while whipped cream and toasted cereal ride underneath. Notes of cedar and golden almond appear, creating a sweet-savory balance. Second Third: The sweetness intensifies into something like wet powdered sugar. Cedar turns slightly piney, while hints of Malibu coconut rum sneak into the profile. Pie crust, honey, hay, and cream dominate, supported by a mellower black pepper. Final Third: Still pastry-like with dominant notes of crust and butter. Honey and roasted almond develop into something reminiscent of Honeycomb cereal. Creamy smoke lingers with touches of orange zest, fried sweetness, and cedar. The finish is syrupy and golden, both comforting and addictive. Why It Belongs in Privada This is Privada at its best—an underground discovery that no one else could have brought to light. A cigar that sat quietly in a shadowy chinchalle, waiting for someone to believe in it. A cigar that tells the story of Estelí’s workers creating something for themselves, outside the spotlight of the big factories. By sharing Las Palomitas with our members, we celebrate not only the flavor but the audacity of these craftsmen to carve their own path.

Stulac Colaboración Aged 3+ Years
Stulac Colaboración Aged 3+ Years Size: 5×54Vitola: Box-Pressed RobustoWrapper: Barrel-Aged Nicaraguan HabanoBinder: ChileFillers: Ometepe, Jalapa, EstelíFlavor Notes: Mahogany, apple slice, cream, black and red pepper, cedar, oak, cinnamonPairing Notes: Fresh apple, bourbon, Canadian whiskey, steak, apricot or apple cinnamon tea, apple pieManufacturer: Paul Stulac at Tabacalera Perla (Nicaragua) Privada Storytelling The story of Paul Stulac is the story of revival. A Canadian-born blender with an artistic streak, Paul once stood at the edge of walking away from the cigar industry entirely. His brand had been overlooked, his efforts dismissed. That is, until Privada stepped in and introduced the club to his Red Screaming Sun Lancero, which changed everything. From that moment forward, Paul became woven into the fabric of the Privada family. The Colaboración was born out of that renewed spirit. Years ago, Paul traveled to Nicaragua, working with Tabacalera Perla and sourcing tobacco from one of the most famous cigar houses in the world—though they’d never admit to supplying it. He blended this cigar with patience, aging it meticulously before handing it over to Privada. We then held it for over a year using the Privada Method, letting the blend mature until the moment of perfect ripeness. What you hold now is not just another cigar; it’s a testament to persistence, partnership, and passion—the Paul Stulac way. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with mahogany richness, a sweet apple slice, cream, and black and red pepper. A syrupy sweetness lingers while the retrohale brings a black pepper umami kick that sets the tone for complexity. Second Third: Woodiness sharpens as mahogany turns to cedar, the apple note becomes tarter, and the sweetness mellows. Cream persists, while cinnamon enters to create balance. Final Third: The apple returns alongside cedar and oak, with black pepper reasserting itself. Creamy smoke carries a cinnamon finish, rounding out a flavorful and satisfying close. Why It Belongs in Privada Paul Stulac is as much a part of Privada as any blender we’ve ever worked with. The Colaboración represents the synergy between our club’s relentless pursuit of aged perfection and Paul’s artistry as a blender. It’s a cigar that nearly didn’t exist—rescued by belief, aged with patience, and elevated through trust. This is exactly the kind of cigar that defines Privada’s mission: uncovering hidden brilliance and sharing it with the world.

It’s not just a cigar—it’s a declaration of why Nicaragua has become the modern Cuba. Lighting the Royal Affair feels like entering a palace of flavor, each chamber opening to reveal richness, elegance, and a touch of the unexpected. It is both regal and rebellious, refined yet zesty—just as AJ Fernandez intended when blending this piece exclusively for Privada. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with cedar, cocoa powder, and powdered sugar, accented by black pepper and cayenne on the retrohale. Cream and chocolate emerge with cinnamon, leather, and even a tang of tamarind. Second Third: Creamy smoke deepens, with tamarind and cedar taking center stage. Powdered sugar sweetness lingers, while honey-roasted nuts arrive as a surprising delight. The cayenne remains, keeping the profile lively. Final Third: Tamarind intensifies, roasted nuts grow earthier, and cedar pairs beautifully with creamy smoke. Black pepper sharpens on the retrohale, closing with a warming cinnamon finish. Why It Belongs in Privada This isn’t just another AJ Fernandez release—it’s a Privada-exclusive puro that embodies rarity and authenticity. The Royal Affair demonstrates why Privada continues to push boundaries: bringing members cigars that are not just smokes, but milestones in the craft. It’s a celebration of AJ’s genius and Nicaragua’s undeniable rise as the epicenter of premium tobacco.

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.

Privada Storytelling There are certain factories that have carved their names into cigar lore, and Raíces Cubanas is one of them. Known for producing Viaje, Illusione, and Alec Bradley, the Honduran factory has always been synonymous with consistency, craftsmanship, and integrity. In 2013, they released a cigar of their own: the Raíces Cubanas 1941. It was met with universal acclaim and quickly became a measuring stick for quality and construction. And then, just as quickly, it was gone. Through the Limited Cigar Association, this benchmark cigar has been reborn. It isn’t just a revival—it’s a resurrection of a blend that defined a generation of smokers. Aged for two years after rolling, this release proves that balance and patience remain the foundation of great tobacco. Smoking this cigar is like stepping into a time capsule, a reminder of why so many connoisseurs first fell in love with Honduran cigars. Flavor Journey The cigar opens with a confident blast of white pepper, coating the tongue and enriching the retrohale. Quickly, creamy butter and cereal grain sweetness arrive, layered with soft toffee and hints of honey. The first third balances spice with sweetness, a perfect entry for both seasoned aficionados and those exploring medium-bodied cigars. As the second third develops, the body deepens into medium strength, bringing earth and a more grounded pepper. Caramel and cream remain, weaving in and out, while the texture of the smoke stays velvety and abundant. This portion is where the cigar truly settles, showing the strength of its pedigree. The final third turns robust, with earth, leather, and oak taking control. The strength climbs toward full-bodied territory, yet never loses its refined edge. Retrohales now reveal a mix of spice and aged earth, giving the cigar a dignified and hearty finale. Why It Belongs in Privada The Raíces Cubanas 1941 isn’t just a cigar—it’s history, carefully reconstructed for those who demand authenticity. At Privada, we don’t just look for good cigars; we seek benchmarks, smokes that define eras and teach us what tobacco can truly become. This revival embodies everything we stand for: legacy, rarity, and the pursuit of excellence. To smoke this cigar is to taste a piece of cigar folklore, curated for the Privada family.

BANG!—a warning shot to the senses. Kristoff Cigars is known for crafting full-bodied, unapologetic blends, but when Privada steps in, the results often push beyond what’s thought possible. The Pistoff Kristoff Gunplay is exactly that: a Lancero exclusive made for Privada members only, a bold experiment that went from a near-miss to a masterpiece. When this blend first landed, it was rough—fiery, unbalanced, even disappointing. We nearly wrote it off. But Privada’s patience is its secret weapon. After nearly a year of resting and proper aging, the Gunplay reemerged as something spectacular. What was once sharp became savory, sweet, and complex—a profile unlike any Kristoff before it. Named Gunplay for its risky move into a lancero format (Kristoff even warned it could be “dangerous”), this cigar has become one of the most unforgettable Privada exclusives to date. It doesn’t whisper its flavors; it kicks down the door with spice, sweetness, and umami. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with dark toasted bread, minerals, dried figs, prunes, and red currant, balanced by red pepper and salt. A musty sweetness begins to layer in as the bread note anchors the foundation. Second Third: Things get wild—black cherry soda, teriyaki beef jerky, maple wood, and floral powdery smoke. The sensation is sweet, savory, and spicy, like the perfect bite of Chinese orange chicken fresh from the wok. Final Third: A crescendo of soy sauce, black cherry, orange zest, fried batter, red pepper oil, and charred wood, finishing with an earthy clay note. The spice lingers long after the last puff, demanding reflection on what you just smoked. Why It Belongs in Privada This cigar proves the Privada philosophy: sometimes greatness just needs time. What began as a rough, almost unsmokeable cigar became, after patient aging, a spicy, savory, sweet revelation. Kristoff’s boldest blend in a daring vitola, exclusive to Privada, transformed into what may be one of the most unique cigars of the year. This is what we live for—the magic of aging, the thrill of risk, and the satisfaction of discovery.
