D’Crossier Habano Aged 7+ Years Size: 6×50Vitola: ToroWrapper: HabanoBinder: Criollo 98Fillers: DominicanFlavor Notes: Cedar, cream, toasted spice, dried fruit, earthy barnyard, subtle sweetnessPairing Notes: Cognac, espresso with sugar, Cuban coffee, cedar-aged rum, light red wines, toasted almondsManufacturer: D’Crossier Privada Storytelling In the world of cigar artisans, there are magicians, warlocks, and wizards. 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.
