El Club del Turro Pedro Albizu Campos
Privada Storytelling Night rain on old cobblestones. A radio in Santurce hums a hymn of resolve as a wooden box opens and the room fills with warm cedar and cocoa. This cigar is a salute to Pedro Albizu Campos, a figure whose name still moves quietly through alleyways and galleries, barbershops and balconies. It tastes like heritage guarded and passed on, like coffee roasted at dawn and sugarcane set to molasses. It is the kind of smoke that makes conversation slow down and stories deepen. Light it when you want a reminder that identity lives in the details and the details live in flavor. Flavor Journey Cold draw leans creamy and sweet with cocoa powder and a hint of plantain. The first puffs bring roasted coffee and cedar with a sprinkle of sea salt that sharpens focus. As the burn line settles, panela sweetness rises and meets toasted almond while black pepper frames the edges of the palate. Midway the profile broadens, pulling in dark chocolate and a soft tropical echo that feels like warm rain on stone. The final act grows deeper and more grounded, coffee shifting toward espresso and cedar toward aged wood, leaving a long finish of cacao and gentle spice that lingers like a promise. Why It Belongs in Privada Because culture deserves a seat at the table. This release honors a legacy while delivering a modern boutique profile that rewards slow smoking and attentive palates. It is conversation worthy, cellar worthy, and a fitting chapter in the story of artisans who turn leaf into memory. Production Notes Small batch for Privada members. Hand rolled with a long rest to marry flavors before release. Blend details remain undisclosed to let the experience lead the conversation. Offered in both robusto and toro to suit different rhythms of the day. Highlights Tribute release named for a towering figure of Puerto Rican heritage Two formats so members can choose intensity and duration Balanced profile that pairs naturally with coffee and rum Rested for harmony and consistency across boxes

While most aficionados know Eladio Diaz as the legendary blender behind Davidoff for three decades, fewer know that he has a brother—also named Eladio. Known by the nickname “Chebede,” this brother has quietly shaped Dominican blending history alongside him, and now his work takes center stage at Tabacalera Puente. The Madonna Aged 2+ Years is a tribute to that legacy, carrying forward the classic Dominican profile that once defined some of the most iconic white and gold labels in cigar history. It’s a style rooted in elegance, subtlety, and finesse—qualities that only true masters can achieve. With over two years of aging, Madonna reveals the harmony and depth of Dominican tobaccos at their peak, inviting you to step back into a golden era of refined smoking. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with honey and hay layered over an aged, mushroom-like mustiness. A canned peach sweetness hits the tip of the tongue, while oak and white pepper add structure. Cinnamon joins the mix, creating a rich and nostalgic Dominican profile with velvety smoke. Second Third: Cedar rises above oak, sharpened by an apricot twang. Cinnamon remains steady, balanced by notes of forest floor, faint vanilla, and coffee bean. The retrohale is silky, carrying white pepper and soft spice. Final Third: The experience deepens into roasted coffee bean, peanut butter, oak, cedar, and a return of cinnamon. Creamy, dense smoke lingers long on the palate, a classic display of Dominican craftsmanship matured through time. Why It Belongs in Privada This cigar represents more than tobacco—it’s a story of lineage, secrecy, and forgotten mastery. The Madonna reminds us that behind every legendary blender, there are often others whose talents remain in the shadows. Privada brings Chebede’s work to light, offering members an authentic Dominican experience steeped in history and refined through patience.

His reputation runs deeper than just blending—he’s one of the few in the industry willing to take on the nearly impossible job of insuring cigars.

Rolled in Nicaragua at a factory he keeps close to the chest, the blend remains shrouded in mystery.

This one you fall in love with. Flavor Journey First Third: A balanced start of honey, cedar, hay, and black pepper carried by creamy smoke. The retrohale introduces vanilla sweetness, with wood and spice building in harmony. Second Third: Flavors evolve into juicy, tropical fruit notes—think guava and mango—blending seamlessly with cedar and cream. The smoke takes on a dreamlike sweetness balanced by a touch of spice. Final Third: The cigar crescendos with the warmth of cinnamon apple pie filling, baker’s spices, and intensified cedar. Creamy smoke softens the boldness, leaving a rich, satisfying finish.

Privada thrives on discovering such hidden gems—cigars you won’t find elsewhere, crafted with secrecy but smoking with brilliance. This release captures what Privada is all about: community, discovery, and rare flavor journeys worth sharing.

Yet nothing prepared us for the day he called unexpectedly to say, “Your Privada exclusive is ready.” No negotiations. No planning. Just pure passion and generosity, rolled into a project meant only for our members. The result was the Stallone Exclusivo Privada, a cigar unlike anything we had ever seen before. From the moment it arrived—with cellophane stamped with the Privada logo—it felt like history. That sheen, that sumptuous box press, and then the blend: San Andrés wrapper aged three years, Venezuelan Burley binder aged five years in rum casks, Nicaraguan fillers aged four years, with Ometepe tobacco finished in oak. This was not just a cigar; it was a statement. A wild experiment in tobacco aging and treatment that somehow came together in perfect balance. After over five years of Privada-controlled aging, it has evolved even further. What began as bold and mysterious is now rich, creamy, and layered with flavors no other cigar on the market can match. This is why Privada exists—to bring members something so singular, so experimental, that smoking it feels like uncovering a hidden chapter in tobacco history. Flavor Journey First Third: Vegetal and smoky with barnyard and cocoa aromas. The cold draw recalls cherry pipe tobacco and licorice, while the foot offers chocolate and rich tobacco. The smoke is creamy and chocolate-laden, balanced with bread crust, red pepper retrohale, BBQ jerky, and teriyaki glaze. Cinnamon lingers in the retro as the flavors weave into balance. Second Third: The teriyaki glaze intensifies, paired with toasted rye bread, milk chocolate, and a saline edge. Retrohale sharpens with cinnamon spice. The smoke texture becomes rich cream, lifted by a lemon-espresso brightness. Apricot joins chocolate and rye, showcasing an uncommon but harmonious interplay. Final Third: Chocolate, cinnamon, and oak dominate the retrohale, while the draw features creamy cocoa, lemon, apricot, earth, and medium roast coffee. Rye bread returns as the profile drifts toward pie-like flavors—pecan, apple cider vinegar, and sweet vanilla. Balanced, indulgent, and unlike anything else in the Privada vault. Why It Belongs in Privada This cigar is the definition of why Privada exists. A spontaneous act of generosity by Tony Barrios became a once-in-a-lifetime experiment in aging and fermentation. Rum-cask binders, oak-aged Ometepe fillers, and years of Privada care have created a cigar no one else in the industry could have imagined. Bold, balanced, experimental, and aged to perfection—this is the Privada promise in physical form.
