Born in the small but legendary Tabaco de Espléndido factory, tucked between Estelí and Condega, this puro tells the story of passion over scale. With just 17 pairs of rollers, salsa music bouncing off stone walls, and lunches cooked in a sunlit courtyard, this is not a mass-production house—it’s a family, crafting greatness leaf by leaf.

The finish lingers like a perfect encore, equal parts refreshing and indulgent. Why It Belongs in Privada El Buble is what Privada stands for—discovering treasures that redefine expectations.

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.

Ñandysy Aged 1+ Years
Ñandysy Aged 1+ Years Size: 6×52Vitola: ToroWrapper: Dominican Viso from the Cibao ValleyBinder: BrazilFillers: San Vicente, Piloto Cubano, and Flojo from ParaguayFlavor Notes: Cedar, golden raisin, white pepper, orange blossom, dried cherry, floral teas, rosemary, hay, toasted cashew, buttered toastPairing Notes: Cherry Coke, Jack Daniels, sugar cookies, raisins, roasted nuts, cafecito with toast, dried cherries, herbal teasManufacturer: Small Dominican partner factory using tobacco from Paraguay and Dominican Republic Privada Storytelling Ñandysy carries a name that speaks to dairy, milk, and cream in the Guarani language of Paraguay, a word born of the jungles of South America and now brought to life on a cigar band. When I first began working with a factory in Brazil, the connection wasn’t immediate. But when they introduced me to a small factory in Paraguay, things changed. There was something unique in what they were doing—especially with a rare tobacco called Flojo, a long-filler viso they claim has roots in Africa. This cigar represents an international dance of cultures and tobaccos: Paraguayan Flojo shipped to the Dominican Republic, where it is married with Dominican staples like San Vicente and Piloto Cubano. The result is a blend that feels familiar yet distinctly different. Creamy, floral, spiced—it speaks with its own accent. Think of it as a Dominican puro that traveled south, learned a new language, and came back changed. Ñandysy is smooth, floral, and layered, with a story that’s as fascinating as the flavors it delivers. Flavor Journey First Third: Cedar and golden raisin lead the charge, followed by orange blossom, dried cherry, and a silky velvet-like smoke. A white pepper sparkle lingers on the retrohale. Second Third: The floral bouquet expands—orange blossom becomes more defined, rose hip tea and other herbal florals appear. A cola-like effervescence rides the retrohale alongside white pepper. Final Third: The profile softens into herbal tones of dried rosemary, hay, and buttered toast. Toasted cashew adds richness while the smoke remains mellow, creamy, and smooth. Why It Belongs in Privada Ñandysy is the perfect example of how Privada brings tobaccos from overlooked corners of the world into the spotlight. Paraguayan Flojo isn’t something you’ll see anywhere else—yet here it is, shaping a cigar that is creamy, floral, and distinct. This is discovery, this is rarity, this is Privada.

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.

We wanted a bold, playful expression of craft—a cigar that feels like it’s been dipped in history, mystery, and a splash of bourbon spirit. Crafted by Chico Rivas, one of the Dominican Republic’s most respected artisans, Whiskey D became more than just a robusto. After being rolled with a blend of Dominican and Nicaraguan tobaccos, these cigars were carefully laid to rest in used bourbon barrels under Privada’s control. The result? A cigar that merges the world of whiskey and tobacco in a way that feels seamless, natural, and luxurious. Whiskey D is a reminder of what happens when tradition collides with experimentation. A wink, a nod, and a playful warning on the band remind us: “Enjoy responsibly, for too much drink can certainly make your submarine sink!” Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with a wave of oak and charred wood, layered with bourbon sweetness, toasted nuts, and a subtle smokiness. Cocoa and leather emerge on the finish. Second Third: The bourbon barrel influence deepens, offering notes of vanilla, caramel, and warm spice.

Final Third: A crescendo of espresso, cocoa, and toasted pecans rides alongside a lingering bourbon essence, with peppery heat and oak rounding out the close. Why It Belongs in Privada Barrel aging is nothing new—but in the world of premium cigars, doing it correctly requires patience, trust, and vision. Whiskey D is a marriage of Chico Rivas’ Dominican craftsmanship and Privada’s relentless innovation. It belongs in the Privada family because it embodies everything we stand for: bold ideas, rare results, and an experience that goes far beyond a smoke.

The Narcos RL Aged 3+ Years is proof. Conceived by two ambitious young men from the Dominican Republic—the same duo who gave us Capos and Burnot—this cigar represents the fire of a new generation rising to reclaim the Dominican Republic’s rightful place in the world of premium cigars.

The result is a smoking experience that feels mature yet vibrant, like an old soul in a youthful body. In an industry often plagued by rushed releases, Narcos RL is a bold declaration: quality is worth waiting for.

This cigar began its journey in a small Jalapa factory, discovered by Jorge of Tampeño Cigars, who knew immediately it belonged in Privada’s vault. While rough-edged when first found, it has since been transformed into a refined masterpiece through two years of factory age and three additional years under the Privada Method—balanced coolers, two-way humidity control, and obsessive oversight. The name “La Lealtad” translates to “The Loyalty,” and this cigar embodies exactly that: loyalty to the craft, loyalty to tobacco’s natural rhythms, and loyalty to the smoker who craves flavors only time can create. Packaged under Deadstock Cigar Company, this release honors Privada’s mission of breathing new life into aged blends originally destined for other brands. What you hold is more than a cigar—it’s a story of resurrection, patience, and the kind of balance that only years of care can achieve.

Lemon balm lingers on the finish, while cedar aging room notes and roasted sesame seed emerge on the retrohale. Dry yet rich, the age immediately shows.

Creamy smoke balances the dryness, while dried fruits and tangy finishes elevate the profile to Cuban-like sophistication. Final Third: The entire flavor orchestra melds into one harmonious experience. Cream, cedar, fruit, and spice merge seamlessly, embodying the very definition of balance. The years of professional aging culminate in a cigar that transcends its parts and speaks only as a whole. Why It Belongs in Privada La Lealtad demonstrates the power of patience. In a world where cigars are rushed to shelves, this cigar proves what only Privada dares to show: that proper age can make Nicaraguan tobacco rival the elegance and refinement of Cuba.

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.

Purple Sky Cigars isn’t your typical boutique outfit—it’s run by three men with turbulent pasts, each carrying the weight of redemption and grit. Hector found faith behind prison walls, Tommy shakes with nervous energy but channels it into passion, and Paul—the road warrior with sharp humor—drove a white van across the country for 45 hours straight, cigar delivery in tow, refusing even food or rest. There’s a raw honesty in Purple Sky’s story, and it seeps into the cigars they make. These aren’t the polished offerings from massive factories. They’re scrappy, daring, imperfectly perfect smokes born of determination and survival. El Diablo Maduro, with its dark wrapper and rebellious heart, is exactly the kind of cigar Privada embraces: a reminder that passion can come from unexpected places.

Privada thrives on these stories: cigars that come not only with flavor but with grit, struggle, and redemption in their DNA.

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.

El Fin, meaning The End, was created by master blender Chico Rivas as the ultimate closing act—a cigar designed to put the period at the end of the sentence, the exclamation mark at the end of your evening. 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.

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.

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.

Special Sauce Aged 5 Years
Special Sauce Aged 5 Years Size: 6×42Vitola: CoronaWrapper: Nicaraguan from Montenegro FarmBinder: Nicaraguan from Montenegro FarmFillers: Nicaraguan from Montenegro FarmFlavor Notes: Molasses, graham cracker, apricot, raspberry, cedar, toasted oak, honey, vanilla, black and red pepper, ginger, tea-like floralsPairing Notes: Fried chicken sandwich, chicken nuggets, cherry pie pocket, Sprite, strawberry shake, dark rumManufacturer: Montenegro Cigars (Nicaragua) Privada Storytelling Every once in a while, the phone rings with something extraordinary. 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 sister grows it. His family lives it. But unlike others chasing fame and big contracts, Kelner Jr. values contentment, artistry, and family over the spotlight. Producing only 250,000 cigars a year, his Kelner Boutique Factory is one of the most tightly guarded in the industry. When he chose to work with Privada, rivals tried to dissuade him, even threatened to pull their own business. But Kelner is his own man. Independent. Loyal only to his craft. The 73, named for the year of his birth, is his first direct collaboration with Privada Cigar Club. A cigar of rare elegance, born from a master who could work with anyone, but chose instead to work with us—and by extension, with you. This is more than just a cigar. It’s proof of Privada’s place at the table of cigar history. Flavor Journey First Third: Bursting magnolia florals dominate, alongside warm buttered toast, apricot, and Craisin sweetness. The retrohale brings white pepper and fermented fruit complexity, almost like kombucha. Green apple lingers, while aged cedar provides balance. Second Third: The florals calm as fermented fruits, sesame seed, and apricot twang take over. The smoke turns creamy and textured, leaving a tangy, almost ale-like finish. Green apple persists, weaving freshness into the profile. Final Third: Flavors condense, intensifying with magnolia, apricot, and crisp green apple. The smoke warms, taking on a syrupy, root-like richness. Cedar shifts to freshly cut, while baker’s spice adds heat. The retro is spicy with earth, oak, and white pepper. Truly a banger of a finish. Why It Belongs in Privada Privada exists to uncover and preserve the rare, the untold, the authentic. The 73 is exactly that—a cigar crafted by one of the most talented yet reclusive figures in the cigar world. While others chase recognition, Kelner Jr. chooses to work with passion. His first-ever direct release with PCC is not just rare, it’s historic. Privada members alone get to experience what few outside the Kelner circle ever will.

Newman Cigar Co. (Nicaraguan Factory) Privada Storytelling I’m talking ’bout The Good Life. And yet, when this cigar first debuted, some people couldn’t believe it—me putting my own name on a cigar. At first, I wanted it to be released under J.C. Newman, but they politely declined, saying it wouldn’t be the right look. So I did what we always do at Privada: I created something bold, personal, and unapologetic. The band, inspired by the legendary Beverly Hills Hotel, was my amateur Photoshop project, but it symbolized everything this cigar stood for: indulgence, glamour, and the pursuit of life’s finer things. Some members got upset, wanting only other brands, not “ours.” But the truth remains—Privada is not a brand. Privada is the curator, the storyteller, the finder of the rarest leaves and the boldest blends. And this cigar? It’s a showcase of Connecticut Broadleaf tobacco that has been cultivated for over a century—a leaf with history, depth, and soul. Made at the Newmans’ Nicaraguan factory, this rendition of The Good Life may be the best yet. Aged for over a year and a half, it brings out everything Broadleaf was meant to be: funky, flavorful, and unforgettable. Flavor Journey First Third: Bursts of chocolate, peanuts, cream, red pepper, and sarsaparilla. A salty, peppery texture lays the groundwork, joined by baked bread, sesame, and a subtle red berry tang. Second Third: Golden honey and milky chocolate take center stage, layered with white pepper, sweet syrup, Raisinets, and cedar. A nostalgic note of Smarties candy creeps in, playful and unexpected. Final Third: The finale is floral and complex, with raspberry, raisin bread, passionfruit, tart fruit, horseradish, and chocolate weaving together. A bold raisin retrohale underscores this cigar’s complexity. Why It Belongs in Privada This cigar is a statement of identity. It represents what Privada is all about: finding the best tobaccos, collaborating with masters, and refusing to be boxed in by convention. It’s a Broadleaf experience unlike any other—steeped in history, aged to perfection, and curated exclusively for our members.

W.A. Academia
W.A. Academia Size: 6×50Vitola: ToroWrapper: Nicaraguan Double ClaroBinder: NicaraguanFillers: NicaraguanFlavor Notes: Bright cedar, fresh-cut grass, toasted almond, baking spice, citrus zest, creamy smokePairing Notes: Green tea with honey, dry Riesling, spiced rum, shortbread cookies, café con leche, citrus sorbetManufacturer: AJ Fernandez for Privada Cigar Club (Nicaragua) Privada Storytelling The W.A. Series is our love letter to the whimsical, meticulous world of director Wes Anderson. With ten cigars, each inspired by one of his films, we aim to capture the charm, structure, and quiet eccentricity of Anderson’s storytelling in tobacco form. The second chapter, Academia, honors Rushmore, Anderson’s breakout feature. Just as Max Fischer lived and breathed his prep school world, this cigar thrives in its own distinctive realm. Wrapped in a rare Nicaraguan Double Claro, its vibrant green hue immediately signals something unconventional, playful, and bold. This isn’t your everyday toro—it’s an ode to youthful obsession, eccentric ambition, and the relentless pursuit of something bigger. Where Fireworks was a celebration, Academia is discipline, tradition, and creative rebellion all at once. It’s the cigar that teaches you something—about tobacco, about patience, about storytelling through flavor. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with grassy freshness, cedar, and citrus zest. A delicate pepper hum lingers on the retrohale while toasted almond and cream soften the edges. Second Third: The body grows richer with warm bread, baking spices, and a subtle honey sweetness. Hints of tea leaf and dried fruit surface, balanced by a creamy, airy texture. Final Third: The flavors deepen into roasted nuts, wood, and lingering citrus. A quiet crescendo of cedar and spice leaves a balanced, refreshing close. Why It Belongs in Privada Academia proves that a cigar doesn’t have to be dark or heavy to be meaningful. Just as Rushmore introduced Wes Anderson’s eccentric genius to the world, Academia introduces Privada members to the underappreciated art of the Double Claro wrapper. It’s rare, it’s daring, and it’s a flavor profile that belongs only in a collection as ambitious as the W.A. Series.

Classique Aged 11+ Years
Classique Aged 11+ Years Size: 6×44Vitola: LonsdaleWrapper: Ecuadorian Connecticut ShadeBinder: DominicanFillers: DominicanFlavor Notes: Hay, honey, almond, maplewood, powdered sugar, candied orange, cream, vanilla, caramel, warm fall spices, musty mushroomPairing Notes: Chocolate toffee almonds, canned peaches, powdered doughnut, funnel cake, cream soda, coffee light and sweet, champagne, wheated bourbon, red wine, pancakes with maple syrup, cream of mushroom soup, caramel candiesManufacturer: Undisclosed Dominican Factory Privada Storytelling Classique is a time capsule. For more than a decade, this cigar sat forgotten in the Dominican Republic—an accidental relic of a factory’s perfectionism. Why? The wrapper. Instead of the golden Connecticut hue the brand demanded, it was darker, richer, uneven in color. So the cigars were tucked away, aging in silence. When whispers of old stock reached me, I knew this was one of those Indiana Jones moments. It cost an arm and a leg to pry them free, but for the Privada family, it was worth it. Ten-plus years of patient factory aging brought depth and character that no new blend can replicate. This is Dominican craftsmanship at its peak—nostalgia, history, and flavor all rolled into one. A lost treasure rescued for those who know that age tells its own story. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with hay, honey, almond, and maplewood over a bed of earthy creaminess. Faint rosemary, canned peaches, and powdered sugar whisper through the profile, subtle and refined. Second Third: Cream rises alongside candied orange peel, powdered sugar, and dry maplewood. Tannic yet creamy smoke creates a mouthfeel reminiscent of cinnamon warmth. Final Third: Vanilla, caramel, and warm baking spices define the close. Dry maplewood lingers, joined by a touch of mushroom mustiness and autumn pie crust memories. Why It Belongs in Privada Classique embodies the essence of what Privada does best: finding forgotten treasures and reviving them for the true aficionado. This cigar wasn’t blended for hype or trend—it was simply left behind by accident. Now, with over a decade of rest, it has become a perfectly aged relic that proves once again that Privada is the keeper of cigar history.

La Domita is one of those moments. Haitian tobacco has been whispered about for years, a mysterious and seldom-seen leaf that rarely makes it into international blends. When the opportunity arose to secure a small batch crafted by none other than Claudio Sgroi and Edgar Sued—two artisans whose fingerprints are all over the modern boutique renaissance—we didn’t hesitate. This cigar is more than rare—it’s experimental artistry. Imagine stepping into an ancient forest after a rainstorm, damp moss underfoot, with distant aromas of cocoa, herbs, and oak drifting through the mist. That’s the world La Domita inhabits. It doesn’t follow rules. It doesn’t try to replicate Nicaragua or the DR. Instead, it delivers something alien, exotic, and unforgettable. This is the kind of experience that redefines what tobacco can be. Flavor Journey First Third: Oak, molasses, white pepper, minerally earth, and cocoa open the show. A damp mustiness, like moss and forest floor, gives way to vanilla, dried fruit, and thyme. Espresso, butter, and rye flavors create a savory-sweet depth. Second Third: Chocolate and yellow florals rise to the forefront. White pepper lingers on the retrohale while moss, herbs, molasses, and oak continue to ground the profile. A berry-like spirit note—reminiscent of barrel-aged whiskey—adds intrigue. Sweet-Tart candy edges the palate. Final Third: Intensifies with sarsaparilla root, floral perfume, vanilla, oak, white pepper, and forest floor. Notes of molasses, Sprees candy, peat, and fruit leather bring the cigar to a layered and luxurious close. Why It Belongs in Privada La Domita is a time capsule of experimentation—a cigar that reveals what happens when master blenders are given rare tobaccos most of the world will never smoke. It’s the kind of small-run masterpiece that only Privada can bring forward: equal parts luxury, rarity, and discovery. For collectors, it’s a piece of history. For smokers, it’s a sensory adventure unlike anything else.
