During the chaos of the PCA convention and the rivalries that surrounded it, Privada Cigar Club carved out a space for resilience and innovation. Despite pressures from industry titans and the weight of cease-and-desist letters, Privada pressed forward — unafraid, unapologetic, and unwilling to be silenced. Crafted in the Dominican Republic, this cigar was aged for 60+ days in authentic bourbon barrels sourced from the famed MGP Distillery, bridging two worlds: the artistry of tobacco and the richness of bourbon. Its debut alongside Privada’s own bourbon release at Privadacon marked a moment where tradition met bold experimentation. This cigar is not only about flavor; it is a declaration of Privada’s enduring independence. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with milk chocolate, strawberry syrup, oak, and vanilla. White pepper and cinnamon add spice, while chocolate-covered cherries hint at the bourbon barrels’ influence. Second Third: Lemon zest weaves into the mix, merging with chocolate, oak, cream, and floral undertones. A steady strawberry note anchors the profile, giving the cigar its distinctive identity. Final Third: A dessert-like finale emerges with vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry — reminiscent of a decadent sundae. Tangy citrus and dark woods rise, finishing with cayenne pepper heat and bourbon sweetness. Why It Belongs in Privada This cigar embodies the DNA of Privada: innovation against resistance, artistry against complacency. The Good Life Revamped Bourbon Barrel Aged is more than a cigar — it’s a testament to survival, creativity, and the pursuit of experiences that transcend expectation. Its bourbon barrel finish captures the essence of Privada’s fearless spirit, proving that great cigars can come from pushing boundaries, not bowing to them.

Popeye's Reign Aged 2 Years
Popeye’s Reign Aged 2 Years Size: 6×46Vitola: Corona ExtraWrapper: Nicaraguan Habano Sun GrownBinder: CondegaFillers: Jalapa, Estelí, with a touch of BrazilianFlavor Notes: Cedar, cream, oak, cinnamon, red pepper, maple syrup, leather, mochaPairing Notes: Dark roasted coffee, cinnamon-spiced bourbon, dark chocolate with red pepper, or a spinach-inspired cocktailManufacturer: Undisclosed factory, Condega, Nicaragua Privada Storytelling Popeye’s Reign is the kind of cigar that lives in whispers and legends. Crafted in a hidden factory in Condega, it embodies the tension of artistry made in the shadows—where legalities loom and passion perseveres. This cigar is a nod to the wraiths, those elusive blends that mirror iconic brands yet move carefully in the dark. The inspiration comes from Popeye himself, a cultural icon whose sailor’s laugh—ah-gahgahgahgah!—still echoes through time. In 1957, a massive Popeye balloon floated down the streets of New York in a parade, rainwater collecting on his hat and showering the crowd below. Much like that surprise moment, this cigar is about unexpected delight, about being caught in something bigger than you anticipated. Popeye’s Reign captures the same bold, rugged spirit: defiant, hearty, and unforgettable. Flavor Journey First Third: Graham cracker sweetness and chocolate mingle with cedar, cream, and oak. Cinnamon spice flickers at the edges, balanced by a retrohale of bold red pepper. Second Third: Flavors deepen into fresh-cut cedar and a touch of pine. Creamy smoke envelops the palate while maple syrup sweetness emerges, softening the spice. Final Third: Cinnamon returns in force, layered with cedar and lingering red pepper sparks. Cream, oak, and a playful sweetness round out a warm, complex finish. Why It Belongs in Privada This cigar exists because of you—the Privada movement. Without the collective force of our community, cigars like Popeye’s Reign would never leave their factory vaults. It represents defiance against industry silence, a playful nod to pop culture, and proof that Privada continues to unearth treasures that others are too afraid to release. It’s bold, it’s rare, it’s ours.

The name itself recalls a whimsical moment in 1956, when the iconic Mighty Mouse balloon met its ironic match against a New York street sign. The mighty laid low by the mundane—an unforgettable spectacle of fragility and humor. But beneath that story lies another: a young Chico Rivas, long before his rise as one of the Dominican Republic’s most sought-after blenders, quietly released this blend in 2015, sold only in the Dominican Republic. Few outside those borders ever experienced it. Now, after seven patient years of aging, the Mighty 54 resurfaces like a hidden track from a legendary artist’s early catalog—raw, authentic, and glowing with the promise of future greatness. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with cedar and cream, wrapped in a delicate floral sweetness. Notes of toasted almond and cinnamon dance on the tongue, balanced with subtle earthy undertones. Second Third: Evolves into richer flavors of cocoa, oak, and spice. A creamy texture emerges, coating the palate while the retrohale delivers hints of white pepper and dried fruit. Final Third: Strength rises as leather, earth, and roasted coffee join the mix, finishing with a harmony of cedar and sweet spice that lingers long after the final draw. Why It Belongs in Privada The Mighty 54 is not just a cigar, it’s a time capsule. It embodies the discovery of Chico Rivas before his name was widely celebrated, offering members of Privada Cigar Club the rare chance to experience his work in its earliest, most unpolished brilliance. Aged for seven years, it bridges past and present, humor and craft, nostalgia and mastery.

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.

Blackbird x Penelope Barrel Aged Minnesota Fats
Blackbird x Penelope Barrel Aged Minnesota Fats Size: 4.5×58 Box PressVitola: Short Gordo Box PressWrapper: UndisclosedBinder: UndisclosedFillers: UndisclosedFlavor Notes: Chocolate, artificial berry, oak, white pepper, cinnamon, charred wood, dried dark fruits, vanilla creamPairing Notes: Vanilla soda, bourbon, Hershey’s Kiss, Cap’n Crunch Berry (2 hours prior), vanilla desserts, chocolate desserts, egg cream sodaManufacturer: Blackbird Cigars x Privada Cigar Club, finished in Penelope Bourbon Barrels Privada Storytelling When Privada Cigar Club first released the Minnesota Fats back in September 2021, it was already a revelation—two years aged and brimming with promise. But what sits before you now is something even rarer: the same blend, aged an additional year and then finished for 90 days in freshly emptied Penelope bourbon barrels. This is not “barrel aged” in the loose way the industry has used the term. No fermentation tricks, no marketing sleight of hand. This is true barrel aging, where finished cigars rest inside real bourbon-soaked oak casks, constantly monitored for balance. It is risky, time-consuming, and nearly impossible to execute at scale—yet Privada has done it for 10,000 cigars, pushing boundaries that few would dare attempt. The result? A cigar that is equal parts indulgence and innovation. Think chocolate-dipped berries over charred oak, with vanilla cream smoke so rich it feels decadent. Minnesota Fats has gone from cult classic to cigar history in the making. Flavor Journey First Third: Explodes with rich chocolate—layered, thick, and sweet. Artificial berry reminiscent of Cap’n Crunch Berries laces through, while oak and white pepper ground the profile. Creamy smoke delivers a silky texture, finishing with lemon zest and charred wood. Second Third: The core flavors of chocolate, berry, and oak persist with remarkable consistency. Cinnamon slips in alongside creamier, heavier smoke. A lemon note pops in and out, keeping things bright. This is indulgence without compromise. Final Third: Transitions to charred oak and dried dark fruits—cranberries, cherries—melding with cinnamon spice. Vanilla cream surges forward, accented by black pepper on the retrohale. A smooth, decadent close to an unforgettable smoking experience. Why It Belongs in Privada Minnesota Fats isn’t just a cigar—it’s a milestone. This project represents Privada’s commitment to redefining post-production aging, proving that cigar innovation doesn’t stop at rolling tables. We now have more barrel-aging experience than anyone outside of Europe’s historic cigar banks. Minnesota Fats belongs in Privada because it is a piece of living cigar history, a bold step forward in what’s possible when passion overrides convention.

Work-N-Class Maduro
Work-N-Class Maduro Size: 5 3/4×54 (Robusto), 6 1/4×56 (Torpedo)Vitola: Robusto, Toro, TorpedoWrapper: MaduroBinder: NicaraguanFillers: NicaraguanFlavor Notes: Dark chocolate, espresso, cedar, black pepper, earthy minerals, sweet cream finishPairing Notes: Black coffee, spiced rum, bourbon, chocolate stout, grilled steak, molasses cookiesManufacturer: Undisclosed Estelí Factory (Nicaragua) Privada Storytelling Some cigars carry legends, others carry price tags. 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.

Blue – espresso, tawny port, spiced rum, dark chocolate truffles.Manufacturer: Tabacalera El Puente (Dominican Republic) Privada Storytelling In the late 1990s and early 2000s, the Dominican Republic reigned supreme as the epicenter of refined, luxury cigars. Collectors scrambled to secure Dominican masterpieces while counterfeiters chased their reputation. But as tastes shifted to heavier-bodied Nicaraguan and Honduran blends, the nuanced balance that made the Dominican Republic king quietly receded into the shadows. The DK Duo – Blanc et Bleu – resurrects that golden age. Two cigars, two expressions of Dominican mastery, presented in a single coffin. The White, wrapped in a silky Ecuadorian Habana 2000, recalls the grace and balance of the classics: elegant, poised, whispering layers of complexity rather than shouting them. The Blue, clad in its darker Ecuadorian Habana 2000 Maduro, is the bolder sibling, offering richness, intensity, and a touch of mystery. Together, they embody the past and the future of Dominican artistry. Smoking the Duo is like stepping into a time capsule, revisiting the era when the Dominican Republic set the standard for sophistication in premium cigars. Flavor Journey DK White: Opens with cedar, cream, and honey sweetness, layered with citrus zest and a delicate white pepper finish. Midway, the smoke gains body with toasted almond, vanilla, and floral undertones, finishing with elegance and subtle spice. DK Blue: Begins with rich espresso, dark cocoa, and plum, accented by bold black pepper. The middle is deeper with molasses, oak, and a faint licorice tang. It closes with a crescendo of roasted coffee, cocoa nibs, and spice, balanced by creamy smoke. Why It Belongs in Privada The DK Duo is more than two cigars—it’s a revival of a lost era. Where others chase power, these blends chase refinement. They reconnect members to the Dominican Republic’s legacy of sophistication and balance while showcasing what happens when history meets modern craftsmanship. Only Privada members could be trusted with such a reawakening of Dominican tradition.

Unfiltered. Off-kilter. Sometimes polarizing, always passionate. That’s Ernesto Padilla. To sit with him is like sitting with that family member you can’t help but love, even when he ruffles your feathers. He speaks his mind, he stirs the pot, but when it comes to crafting cigars—he delivers undeniable greatness. For Catcher in the Rye, Padilla returns to the legendary Raíces Cubanas factory in Honduras, a homecoming to the very place our journey with him began. Here, among the storied halls and seasoned hands that have produced some of the most iconic blends of the last two decades, Ernesto channels his raw energy into something unforgettable. Like the book that inspired its name, this cigar is layered with complexity, rebellion, and a restless search for authenticity. Privada members now hold a true piece of Padilla’s unfiltered artistry—a cigar that resists neat categories and instead thrives on surprise. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with floral notes and charred cedar, balanced by a honey-like sweetness. Creamy smoke blankets the palate as tart dried fruits add a tangy finish. Subtle umami appears, woven with black pepper and a peaty, smoky edge. Oak and vanilla begin to emerge. Second Third: The cigar evolves into a warm bakery—cinnamon, nutmeg, and old spice drift across the tongue. Creamy vanilla and charred oak deepen the profile, with a peach-pie-like richness carrying through each puff. Final Third: A crescendo of warm apple brandy, white pepper, cedar, and oak.

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.

His first film, Bottle Rocket, was raw, quirky, and unforgettable—a launchpad for his entire career. When Brian Desind of Privada Cigar Club set out to pay homage to Anderson’s cinematic genius, he knew the first installment in the W.A. Collection had to capture that explosive spirit. Thus, the W.A. Fireworks was born. Crafted entirely from Nicaraguan tobaccos at AJ Fernandez’s esteemed factory, this 7×50 Churchill embodies the spark of creativity, the sudden bursts of flavor and color that define both cinema and cigars. Like fireworks, it is fleeting yet unforgettable—something to be experienced, savored, and remembered. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with cedar, roasted nuts, and black pepper that snap to attention like the first crack of a firework. Cocoa lingers in the background, adding a rich sweetness to the smoke. Second Third: Flavors expand into cream, toasted bread, and a balanced spice that mirrors cinnamon and nutmeg. The retrohale sharpens with white pepper and cedar. Final Third: Intensifies with notes of dark cocoa, charred oak, and a lingering creaminess, finishing with a spark of spice and earthy richness. Why It Belongs in Privada The W.A. Fireworks is not just a cigar—it’s the first chapter in a ten-part series inspired by Wes Anderson’s films.

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.

Flavor Journey The first third opens with notes of espresso and dark chocolate, quickly joined by molasses and a touch of toasted walnut.

Originally part of a limited seasonal release from AJ Fernandez, this Nicaraguan Puro never carried his name but was entirely grown and crafted on his Estelí farms. Aged 3.5 years, this cigar belongs to a chapter in our Color Series defined by rebellion, resilience, and authenticity. The cease-and-desist battles, the whispers from the titans of tobacco, the attempts to keep Privada from shaking up their quiet empire—it all makes this release even more meaningful. This isn’t just a cigar. It’s proof that the culture cannot be controlled, and that real passion for tobacco will always find its way to the people who deserve it most: you, the smoker. Flavor Journey From the first draw, you’re enveloped in rich cocoa, cocoa butter, and hazelnut, layered with vanilla and fresh cedar. A touch of black pepper and dried thyme on the retrohale creates the feel of an herb-crusted bread kissed with chocolate sweetness. As the second third opens, the pepper evolves into red spice, while the body grows sweeter with cream, cocoa, and dried fruits—apples, mangos, and a raspberry tang that surprises the palate. The retrohale remains dynamic, offering bread crust, herbs, and cream in equal measure. The final third builds toward a crescendo: sweet cedar, cream, cayenne, espresso, and oregano, leaving behind the lasting impression of a cigar that marries boldness with elegance. Why It Belongs in Privada The Black and Yellow isn’t simply another aged Nicaraguan Puro—it’s a relic from AJ’s farms, released under circumstances that highlight the friction between innovation and tradition. Privada thrives in that space. We exist to uncover and share the stories the industry wants hidden. This cigar is not just smoke—it’s resistance, history, and triumph rolled into one.

Owned by Sandy Cobas, this boutique factory is legendary for employing only level 9 Cuban rollers, ensuring every cigar reflects the techniques and elegance of true Cuban tradition. Triple caps, Cuban-style construction, meticulous handwork—El Titan is as much a cultural treasure as it is a factory. The Sumatra Lancero LE is a testament to what happens when tradition meets daring choice. Sumatra has long been considered an underrated wrapper, capable of delivering a refined, aromatic smoke. Rolled with painstaking care and aged for over four years under Privada’s stewardship, this cigar is delicate yet bold, floral yet spiced, balanced yet expressive. The fact that El Titan de Bronze remains the most expensive factory in the U.S. to produce cigars makes this release even more special. It’s a true luxury experience, crafted in the heart of Miami but steeped in global tradition. Every puff is both a celebration of heritage and an affirmation of why Privada exists: to give members access to the best of the best. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with a bouquet of florals, cedar, and oak. Salt and pepper season the palate while the retrohale introduces dried fruits and red pepper. Smoke is powdery and clean, finishing with herbal root notes. Second Third: Creamier textures arrive with buttery richness. Cedar and florals intertwine with sarsaparilla root and cinnamon. Retrohale becomes sugary and floral, with vanilla and almond adding subtle sweetness. The smoke feels effervescent, almost soda-like, elevating the experience. Final Third: Cinnamon and sarsaparilla carry through, joined by florals and oak. Retrohale smooths into oaky spice with hints of sweetness, while the smoke melds into a harmonious climax of flowers, wood, and gentle spice. Balanced, ethereal, and deeply satisfying. Why It Belongs in Privada El Titan de Bronze is where heritage lives. Producing cigars here costs double or triple compared to factories abroad, which is why so few attempt it. But Privada members demand more than convenience—they demand history, artistry, and perfection. The Sumatra Lancero LE embodies that ethos, marrying Cuban tradition with Privada’s aging philosophy. With over four years of rest, it is not just a cigar; it is an experience of rarity, heritage, and patience.

The Monovarietal Corojo Edition is a bold statement: a Dominican puro composed entirely of Corojo, but drawn from different primings and parts of the plant. This choice is both daring and demanding.

Balanced layers of baked fruits, herbs, and chocolate graham crackers dominate. Final Third: Climaxes with cinnamon, cayenne spice, vanilla custard, powdered sugar, and hazelnut over a buttery, herbal base. Smooth yet bold, it finishes with a lingering richness of sweet cream and wood. Why It Belongs in Privada This cigar is a declaration of Dominican craftsmanship at its highest form.
