Montenegro White PCC Aged 7+ Years
Montenegro White PCC Aged 7+ Years Size: 6×60Vitola: GordoWrapper: San Andres Mexican Aged 12 YearsBinder: Cameroon Aged 12 YearsFillers: Nicaraguan Estelí Aged 11 YearsFlavor Notes: Cocoa, cedar, tart cherry juice, charred oak, Riesen candy chocolate, florals, cane syrup, apricot, sweet cream, white pepperPairing Notes: Dark roast coffee with sugar, Riesen candy, M&M’s, Mexican hot chocolate, red wine, malted chocolate, Scotch, BrandyManufacturer: Montenegro Cigars Privada Storytelling Luxury is a word that gets tossed around carelessly in the cigar industry, but Montenegro Cigars embodies it with quiet authenticity. 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.

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.

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.

This is one of them. The Killer Bee Lonsdale you see here doesn’t exist on the market anymore. In fact, this was the exact size James Brown—the founder of Black Label Trading Works—kept for himself, smoking it at events but pulling it from shelves in 2020. Before it disappeared, though, he agreed to make and age a special batch just for Privada. James and Angela Brown, the husband-and-wife team behind Black Label, live in Nicaragua, running Fabrica Oveja Negra with a philosophy that mirrors their global life. James, a wine sommelier, and Angela, a world traveler, once owned a bar on a remote African beach before moving to Central America. Their journey led them to the heart of cigars, where they now craft some of the most cult-followed blends in the industry. This cigar is a slice of that cult history—aged over three years under Privada care and rolled at one of the most respected small factories in Nicaragua. Rich, creamy, and wildly complex, it’s an experience normally reserved for James himself, now brought to you in true Privada fashion. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with cocoa butter, tobacco barn, and peach juice sweetness. The smoke has nut butter creaminess layered with peppermint oil, black pepper, thyme, vanilla, chocolate, and a syrupy butterscotch texture. Red mulch, frankincense, cedar, and instant hot chocolate join as the retrohale adds pepper and dried fruit tones. Second Third: Florals bloom—white petals, orange blossom, magnolia, and rosewater. Black pepper fades into white pepper, balancing almond butter, chocolate with almonds, and coffee candy. Lavender and mint peek in, while lemongrass appears as a phantom retrohale note. Smooth, tangy, and deeply floral. Final Third: Becomes vegetal and savory, with lemon zest, salt, umami butteriness, and cinnamon sweetness. Butterscotch shifts into simple syrup, with roasted coffee beans, dried herbs, cedar, and florals closing the experience. Tingling mouthfeel lingers to the finish. Why It Belongs in Privada Privada was built for moments like this: cigars you can’t get anywhere else, in sizes and ages the public never sees. The Killer Bee Lonsdale isn’t just rare—it’s intimate, pulled from James Brown’s own rotation and aged into something transcendent. It belongs in Privada because it embodies exclusivity, artistry, and story—a collector’s piece that also happens to smoke like a masterpiece.

Kings County. Home of Christopher Wallace—Biggie Smalls—the legend who defined an era of music and culture. This cigar was born from an idea by former Bad Boy Records executives who wanted to pay homage to Biggie in the most timeless way possible: with a cigar wrapped in one of the most iconic symbols of hip-hop, the Jesus Piece. The band alone is stunning, but the cigar beneath it might just be even better. This is more than just a cigar; it’s an experience that bridges music, culture, and tobacco. While the factory remains a mystery, the craftsmanship leaves no doubt—a blend of Nicaraguan, Dominican, and Peruvian tobaccos finished in a silky Ecuadorian Habano wrapper. And aged for over three years under Privada’s watchful eye, it has grown into one of the finest 60-ring gauge cigars ever to grace the club. Biggie asked, “Who shot ya?” Privada answers with, “Who rolled ya?”—and while the blender may remain undisclosed, the artistry is undeniable. Kings County is a bold, cultural artifact, and one of the best gordos you’ll ever smoke. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with saddle leather, barnyard earth, sesame seed, cocoa, and walnut. Retrohale delivers white pepper and baking cocoa. Sweet chocolate, dried mango, black cherry syrup, candied citrus, and toasted almond begin to shine. The smoke texture is creamy, like olive oil, with floral undertones and raspberry syrup emerging. Second Third: Light cedar becomes the dominant wood note. Freeze-dried raspberry, sesame oil, olive oil creaminess, and delicate florals rise. Dark chocolate blends with rosemary and charred oak. Subtle savory notes—animal fat, roasted pork—interplay with almond and cocoa. Balanced sweetness and char anchor the progression. Final Third: Ginger spice, candied ginger, delicate white florals, and layers of oak carry the finale. Retrohale sharpens with florals and charred wood. Smoke remains smooth, dense, and complex, closing with a refined balance of sweetness, tang, wood, and spice. Why It Belongs in Privada Privada is about curating cigars that tell stories beyond the smoke, and this cigar embodies that mission. Tied to Biggie Smalls, Brooklyn, and the cultural icons of an era, the Kings County Habano 6×60 connects music, legacy, and artistry into one unforgettable experience. By aging it for over three years, Privada transformed a bold blend into a smooth, layered masterpiece—proving that even the largest vitolas can achieve unrivaled finesse.

And this cigar delivers it in spades. It’s volcanic, it’s rich, it’s AJ at his most generous and unapologetic. Flavor Journey It opens with a flash of black pepper and deep cocoa, followed by waves of espresso and damp earth. As the box-pressed draw settles in, molasses and dried fruit weave into the core, flanked by leather and charred oak. Midway through, baking spices and cinnamon round out the blend, while a subtle floral tone lingers in the background. The finish is long, chewy, and darkly satisfying—like a good nightcap you didn’t know you needed. Why It Belongs in Privada Because New World Maduro proves you don’t need a secondary band or gimmick to make a cigar unforgettable. Built on family, legacy, and deep Nicaraguan roots, this blend was AJ’s declaration of independence—and his promise to bring bold, refined tobacco to everyone who craved real flavor. For Privada, it’s a reminder that brilliance doesn’t always wear gold foil. Sometimes, it’s wrapped in Oscuro and smolders with every puff.

Matt Booth returned to Joya de Nicaragua, the factory that helped bring the Death Bucket 2 to life, and asked for something twisted, playful, and seasonal. His answer? The same base blend, only reimagined with an Ecuadorian Habano wrapper and in his preferred 6×46 vitola—a size he calls perfect for fall nights. The band and concept leaned into the outrageous: Naked Booth himself, clad in a leopard thong and cape, reminding us that while the cigar industry carries itself seriously, it should never lose its humor or creativity.

Second Third: The horseradish expands, joined by dry mustard spice, musty almond, mulchy earth, mushroom notes, and dried figs. Retrohale sharpens into musty cedar and wasabi heat, shocking yet refined. Final Third: Sweetness builds—caramel, candied almonds, candied orange rind, brown sugar. Tangy Worcestershire umami and sautéed vegetables emerge, finishing with pine, applewood, roasted chestnut, citrus zest, and a return of horseradish minerality. Complex, funky, and utterly addictive—you’ll smoke it to the nub. Why It Belongs in Privada Privada thrives on turning cigars into experiences, and Naked Booth Trick-or-Treat is exactly that.

Tight Draw Supreme
Tight Draw Supreme Size: 6×52 Toro (Box Pressed)Vitola: Toro Box PressedWrapper: Ecuadorian HabanoBinder: Nicaraguan Cuban-Seed (Jalapa)Fillers: Nicaraguan (Montenegro Factory Selection)Flavor Notes: Roasted coffee, cedar, red pepper, sweet cream, toasted bread, subtle cocoaPairing Notes: Dark roast coffee, rye whiskey, espresso martini, or a malty amber aleManufacturer: Montenegro Factory (Helado section, Nicaragua) Privada Storytelling Some mistakes become masterpieces. The Tight Draw Supreme was crafted over a year and a half at the legendary Montenegro factory, in the iconic Helado (“ice cream”) section known for producing some of the world’s most consistent and flavorful cigars. Built with an exceptional Ecuadorian Habano wrapper and a special Cuban-seed binder from Jalapa, this was designed to be a luxury release with an $18 price tag. But after aging, these cigars emerged with a draw slightly firmer than intended. For most companies, this would have meant a failed project. For Privada, it became an opportunity: a rare chance to smoke a $20-level cigar at a fraction of the cost. With a draw poker or an appreciation for resistance, the Tight Draw Supreme transforms into an elegant, flavorful experience — a lesson that perfection sometimes comes with quirks. Flavor Journey The first puffs introduce roasted coffee and cedar, steady and bold. As the cigar opens up, red pepper notes flicker across the palate, balanced by sweet cream and toasted bread. Midway, subtle cocoa adds depth, creating a profile that is rich without overwhelming. The finish is long, smooth, and quietly complex, rewarding patience and attention. Why It Belongs in Privada Privada has always been about finding value in rarity — not just expensive cigars, but experiences that can’t be replicated. The Tight Draw Supreme fits this perfectly: a boutique-level blend that would normally command triple its cost, offered here because of a small imperfection. It’s a reminder that discovery is what Privada does best.
