The Midwest Misfits saga twists further with the arrival of Vito and Arnie, brothers bound by blood and chaos. Chicago’s bitter cold was no place for them, so the City of Angels became their stage—a city they ruled with scams, muscle, and madness. Vito was the cold mathematician, tallying dollars and bodies with equal precision. Arnie was raw force, carrying out justice as only he knew it: brutal, quick, and final. Their legend began when fire consumed their family home, sparked by hooch and reckless hands. When their parents tried to discipline them, the story ended with the first two notches on their bodybag list. From there, the twins became legends of loyalty, violence, and twisted fate.

The smoke is dense, heavy, and uncompromising. Second Third: Dark spice rises—clove and anise mingle with roasted nuts and bittersweet chocolate. A faint molasses sweetness flickers against the fire. Final Third: A crescendo of leather, espresso, and charred wood, with spice biting harder until the finish. A long, gritty aftertaste lingers like ash after arson. Why It Belongs in Privada The Twins aren’t just a story—they’re a warning, a reminder that the world of cigars isn’t built only on refinement and elegance. Sometimes it’s about grit, survival, and a little bit of madness. By immortalizing these characters in cigar form, Privada brings storytelling to life, making every puff a chapter in a living novel of crime, loyalty, and consequence.

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.

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.

Tabacalera Chalet Las Palomitas PCC Aged 1.5+ Years

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.

Owned by Gennaro Lettieri, this operation exists to supply a single client. Every leaf grown under Lettieri’s watchful eye is destined for one destination—and one destination only. Yet, in a rare twist of fate, he kept a small portion of his extraordinary tobacco for himself. That sacred stash, never sold and never shared, became the heart of The Volute. To bring it to life, Lettieri entrusted Claudio Sgroi, one of the industry’s most respected artisans, to craft a cigar worthy of the leaf’s origin. The result is a limited run that whispers of the Amazon itself: humid earth, wild botanicals, and a richness that feels untouched by modern commerce. It is as though the rainforest has been pressed into a cigar, rolled carefully in secret, and released only to those fortunate enough to encounter it through Privada and the Limited Cigar Association. Flavor Journey First Third: Earth-driven and bold, with notes of rainforest soil, dark wood, and exotic spices. A natural sweetness lingers at the edges, softening the intensity. Second Third: A medley of florals and aromatics arises, evoking the lush vegetation of the Amazon. Hints of nutmeg, cacao husk, and roasted nuts appear, balanced by creamy smoke. Final Third: The cigar deepens into resinous wood, black tea, and faint citrus peel. The sweetness lingers, joined by a mineral-rich complexity that marks the Volute as unlike anything else in the humidor. Why It Belongs in Privada The Volute is an invitation into the Amazon, one of the most inaccessible and mysterious sources of tobacco in the world. To hold this cigar is to hold history, rarity, and privilege. Gennaro Lettieri does not sell his tobacco, yet here it is—offered in partnership with Claudio Sgroi and the LCA. This is the type of release that defines Privada: a blend that can’t be duplicated, can’t be negotiated, and can’t be found anywhere else. It belongs here because it proves that even in a world of endless cigars, there are still secrets worth chasing.

Rolled as a slender 5×36 Petite Panetela, El Fin is deceptive. Its small size suggests subtlety, but its intensity is explosive. This is not a cigar to light in the morning, nor something to open your day with. El Fin was built for the end—when the night is winding down, when your palate has been tested and stretched, and only something bold, unapologetic, and unforgettable will do. Aged 3 full years to soften its edges and harmonize its tobaccos, El Fin delivers exactly what its name promises: closure, satisfaction, and a final crescendo. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with a rush of spice and charred oak, quickly joined by bitter chocolate and a hint of espresso. Despite its size, the smoke output is rich and concentrated. Second Third: Leather, earthy minerality, and pepper coat the palate. Notes of dark roasted coffee and burnt sugar develop, adding depth and sharpness. Final Third: Finishes with intensity—oak, espresso, cocoa, and spice all converge in a final, palate-coating flourish. A cigar that insists on being remembered. Why It Belongs in Privada El Fin is not just another cigar—it’s a ritual. Chico Rivas crafted it for those who demand a true finale, a statement piece to cap off an evening of indulgence. In the Privada tradition of offering cigars that fit precise moods and moments, this is the one cigar designed specifically for the end of the night.

When it first dropped in 2022 under the Limited Cigar Association, it created waves. Members went crazy for the pig vitola, a notoriously difficult size to roll. Quesada, a legendary Dominican name, trusted only two of their most skilled torcedores to craft it. The result was nothing short of iconic, and it instantly cemented itself as one of the most memorable LCA releases of all time. This latest release marks the end of the original production run.

A caramelized sweetness builds, balanced by a peppery backbone that keeps things lively. The texture of the smoke is dense, chewy, and full. Final Third: The cigar crescendos with flavors of smoky earth, charred meats, dark chocolate, and espresso. The BBQ-inspired notes remain, now richer and more complex, leaving a savory sweetness as the ember dies down. Why It Belongs in Privada The BBQ Pig isn’t just another LCA release—it’s a milestone. It represents how the Privada and LCA movements have brought once-unthinkable blends and formats into the hands of everyday smokers. With only two rollers qualified to roll this vitola, and with the tobaccos now aged to perfection, this final run is as collectible as it is smokeable. It belongs in Privada because it’s a piece of our shared cigar history.
