Founded by Bill Paley, whose father built the Columbia Broadcasting Service empire, La Palina represents a blend of legacy and passion. Bill Paley doesn’t need to be in the cigar game, but he chooses to be because of his unshakable love for the leaf. That passion has led him to partner with some of the most respected factories in the world, creating cigars that marry tradition with modern artistry. The Bronze Label has long been a cult favorite, and at its peak, a Lancero size was released that shocked aficionados with its brilliance. For Privada, La Palina agreed to resurrect this unicorn in an exclusive form: the Bronze Age Edition. Dressed with a third band and crafted only for Privada members, this cigar bridges La Palina’s legacy with Privada’s reputation for uncovering and resurrecting legendary blends. It’s not just a cigar; it’s a living artifact of modern cigar folklore. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with tangy sourdough pretzel, dried peach, lemon zest, and oak, layered with vanilla sweetness and bursts of red pepper. Tonka bean and chocolate arrive in waves, leaving the palate both nostalgic and excited. Second Third: The profile softens into creamy textures, evoking the rind of a hard cheese and even brie-like nuances. Subtle dried thyme, oak, tonka bean, vanilla, and chocolate anchor the core. Lemon zest and apple flicker on the finish, joined by a cinnamon heat. Final Third: Bold flavors emerge—ginger spice, lemon, oak, leather, and black pepper, all balanced by cream, root beer sweetness, and vanilla. The retrohale pulses with spicy red pepper, carrying the blend to its crescendo. Why It Belongs in Privada The Bronze Age Edition represents Privada’s role as both curator and innovator. By bringing back the Lancero version of La Palina’s Bronze Label—an almost mythical release—we’ve not only revived an iconic cigar but also ensured its story continues in the most exclusive way possible.

Bonita Bonita Bonita Aged 3+ Years Made at Tabacalera La Isla
Bonita Bonita Bonita Aged 3+ Years – Tabacalera La Isla Size: 5×50Vitola: RobustoWrapper: Mexican San AndrésBinder: Dominican RepublicFillers: Dominican RepublicFlavor Notes: Honey, coffee beans, leather, chocolate, cedar, raisins, salted popcorn, toasted almond, cream, vanilla bean, florals, black pepper, cardamom, citrus, stone fruits, brown sugar, browned butter, peanut shell, graham, aged cedar, cereal, white pepper, bread.Pairing Notes: Light roast coffee black, Lowland Scotch, VSOP Brandy, Cognac, floral teas, roasted nuts, crackers with goat cheese, dried cranberries, dried plums, dark chocolate-covered raisins, after fried chicken.Manufacturer: Tabacalera La Isla (Dominican Republic) Privada Storytelling Bonita Bonita Bonita comes to us from one of the most buzzed-about new factories in the Dominican Republic, Tabacalera La Isla, founded by Hostos Fernández Quesada. If the name sounds familiar, it should—Hostos is both the cousin of Terence Reilly of Aganorsa and the nephew of Manolo Quesada of Quesada Cigars. With a family lineage this rich in cigar heritage, Hostos took a bold step into independence, launching La Isla to craft cigars that combine tradition with modern flair. Privada was among the first to partner with La Isla, choosing this maduro blend from early test runs. The habano sibling cigar ended up in our playful “Cigars We Hate” program, but this San Andrés robusto was an instant love affair. Over 3 years of age have polished its flavors, showing just how serious La Isla is about quality. While other clubs rushed in later, we were first to stake our flag on the island—and Bonita Bonita Bonita remains one of the gems of that discovery. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with a savory medley of salted popcorn, toasted almond, cream, vanilla bean, and fragrant cedar. Black pepper, cardamom, and delicate florals weave throughout, while the retrohale delivers subtle caramel, citrus brightness, and more florals over a cedar backbone. Second Third: Flavors deepen into stone fruits, stronger citrus, and a bouquet of florals. Umami elements emerge—brown sugar, browned butter, and a dash of vanilla—giving this portion a gourmand quality rarely found in a maduro robusto. Final Third: Peanut shell, honey graham, aged cedar, and cereal grains define the finale. White pepper tingles on the retrohale while bread and roasted notes close out the experience. A cigar full of dynamism, demanding patience and appreciation as it reveals layers of complexity. Why It Belongs in Privada Bonita Bonita Bonita is proof that Privada leads where others follow. Before La Isla became the industry darling, we were already placing Hostos’ work in members’ hands. This release is both a showcase of San Andrés maduro’s potential in Dominican craftsmanship and a testament to Privada’s commitment to finding brilliance before the rest of the world catches on. Aged over 3 years, it’s an introduction to the future of Dominican boutique cigars.

Originally released as part of the infamous Sharpie Series, its name became the center of legal tension, but its identity never faltered. What matters most has always been the leaf—and here, the leaf tells a story. Jochy Blanco, a master of Dominican tobacco with a lineage steeped in legacy, put his touch on this project, weaving together Dominican richness with a hint of Peruvian intrigue. For three years, these cigars have been resting under Privada’s watchful aging process, evolving, deepening, and becoming something entirely unique. The sweetness that first put this cigar on the map is still present, but now it carries a spicier, more mature edge—like a jazz riff that’s been played a thousand times and somehow gets better with every note. This redux is more than a re-release. It’s a testament to what happens when patience, tradition, and defiance converge. Privada brings you back to the roots of its cult legacy, with a cigar destined not only to be smoked but to be remembered. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with sesame seed oil, cedar, white flowers, and black pepper. A flash of horseradish and candied ginger gives the profile a sharp edge, while unripe mango adds a tart intrigue. The smoke is oily and light, carrying an almost bacon-like satisfaction. Retrohale delivers a warm ribbon of cinnamon. Second Third: The profile transitions into honey-roasted almonds, smoked paprika, sea salt, and aged cedar. Black pepper lingers while menthol adds cooling balance. Dark chocolate, tree sap, and bourbon notes meld with the cedar, creating a layered richness both earthy and refined. Final Third: Sweet woods and milk chocolate dominate, enriched by cinnamon, crème de menthe, and faint bourbon barrel. Musty olor—a signature of elite Dominican blends—appears, wrapping the experience in old-world depth. Powdery, creamy smoke leaves a lasting impression of luxury and craft. Why It Belongs in Privada Not Tony was never just a cigar; it was a movement. From the Sharpie Series to its redux after three years of Privada-controlled aging, this release embodies everything Privada stands for: boundary-pushing creativity, uncompromising quality, and the preservation of rare artistry. By placing this cigar back in your hands, Privada cements its role as curator of not only fine tobacco, but of cultural touchpoints in modern cigar history.

Privada Storytelling There are certain factories that have carved their names into cigar lore, and Raíces Cubanas is one of them. Known for producing Viaje, Illusione, and Alec Bradley, the Honduran factory has always been synonymous with consistency, craftsmanship, and integrity. In 2013, they released a cigar of their own: the Raíces Cubanas 1941. It was met with universal acclaim and quickly became a measuring stick for quality and construction. And then, just as quickly, it was gone. Through the Limited Cigar Association, this benchmark cigar has been reborn. It isn’t just a revival—it’s a resurrection of a blend that defined a generation of smokers. Aged for two years after rolling, this release proves that balance and patience remain the foundation of great tobacco. Smoking this cigar is like stepping into a time capsule, a reminder of why so many connoisseurs first fell in love with Honduran cigars. Flavor Journey The cigar opens with a confident blast of white pepper, coating the tongue and enriching the retrohale. Quickly, creamy butter and cereal grain sweetness arrive, layered with soft toffee and hints of honey. The first third balances spice with sweetness, a perfect entry for both seasoned aficionados and those exploring medium-bodied cigars. As the second third develops, the body deepens into medium strength, bringing earth and a more grounded pepper. Caramel and cream remain, weaving in and out, while the texture of the smoke stays velvety and abundant. This portion is where the cigar truly settles, showing the strength of its pedigree. The final third turns robust, with earth, leather, and oak taking control. The strength climbs toward full-bodied territory, yet never loses its refined edge. Retrohales now reveal a mix of spice and aged earth, giving the cigar a dignified and hearty finale. Why It Belongs in Privada The Raíces Cubanas 1941 isn’t just a cigar—it’s history, carefully reconstructed for those who demand authenticity. At Privada, we don’t just look for good cigars; we seek benchmarks, smokes that define eras and teach us what tobacco can truly become. This revival embodies everything we stand for: legacy, rarity, and the pursuit of excellence. To smoke this cigar is to taste a piece of cigar folklore, curated for the Privada family.

Few releases embody that better than The Shit Show Crew Maduro Lonsdale. This cigar honors some of the longest-standing Privada members: a tight-knit group of Midwest brothers bound by the leaf, by laughter, and by nights that turn into legends. Their most infamous gathering took place in New Orleans—a city of jazz, spirits, and chaos. A night that was, by every definition, a shit show. This release commemorates that memory not with solemnity but with celebration. Rolled by AJ Fernandez, the King of Nicaraguan tobacco, it channels both the madness of the night and the artistry of true craft. Aged for over three years, it has transformed into an elegant, flavorful experience that pays homage not only to the Shit Show Crew but to every Privada member who knows what it means to turn nights into stories. Flavor Journey First Third: Rawhide, saddle leather, peach, and barnyard aromas precede flavors of black soy sauce, molasses, florals, and candied orange. Retrohale brings black pepper, candied fruit, leather, and dried florals. Chocolate and apricot sneak in as the profile expands. Second Third: Chocolate deepens, candied orange sharpens, and malted toastiness emerges. Retrohale shifts to red pepper, supported by toasted nuts and cereal. Balance builds between sweetness, spice, and richness. Final Third: Black coffee with sugar dominates, joined by florals, herbs, and an unexpected burst of sour Sprees candy. Red pepper retro persists alongside dried cherries, tart citrus, and oak, closing the experience with a sweet-sour twist that elevates the finale. Why It Belongs in Privada Privada thrives on turning personal stories into collective experiences. This cigar is proof. The Shit Show Crew may be just four members from the Midwest, but their bond represents the essence of Privada: community, loyalty, and memories forged in smoke. AJ Fernandez created this cigar not only as a masterpiece in broadleaf blending but also as a celebration of people, place, and story. That’s why it belongs here—because Privada cigars are more than smokes; they’re chapters in our shared history.

Vault Cigars Series 1
Vault Cigars Series 1 Size: Varies (Series 1 selection)Vitola: Toro / Robusto (depending on release)Wrapper: Undisclosed (Vault-aged, Honduran origin)Binder: HonduranFillers: Honduran (Raíces Cubanas-aged selection)Flavor Notes: Cashew butter, vanilla custard, powdered sugar, candied nuts, crème brûlée, leather, florals, Italian herbs, caramel, lemon, pepperPairing Notes: Crème brûlée, vanilla custard, vanilla Oreos, white tea, wheat beer, Islay Scotch, brandy, aged rum, vanilla coffeeManufacturer: Raíces Cubanas (Hugo Sanchez, Honduras) Privada Storytelling Vault Cigars Series 1 represents a rare moment in cigar history. Straight from the famed Raíces Cubanas factory in Honduras, these cigars were never supposed to see the light of day. They were the forgotten batches—the unpaid-for, the misplaced, the sleeping vampires of a legendary factory. When Privada was given access to raid these vaults, the result was nothing short of magic. Raíces Cubanas, helmed by Hugo Sanchez, has been crafting cigars in the Cuban tradition for over 25 years. This is the same factory behind some of the best work for Padilla, Viaje, Alec Bradley, and Illusione. Their vaults, however, held something even more special: cigars left behind to age, resting for years in factory conditions that accelerate maturity far beyond what’s possible stateside. With Series 1, members gain access to flavors that may never be replicated. Vanilla custard, crème brûlée sweetness, candied nuts, and white pepper florals—flavors that rival the finest cigars in the world, and perhaps outdo them. This is not just a release; it’s a chance to taste what happens when time, tradition, and serendipity collide. Flavor Journey First Third: Begins with subtle cashew butter, salt, and floral notes. White pepper ramps up quickly as the flavor expands into vanilla custard, powdered sugar, and candied nuts. Retrohale is leather, salt, full white pepper, and florals—an immediate standout. Second Third: Vanilla custard evolves into crème brûlée, with caramelized sweetness balanced by white pepper and floral umami. Retrohale introduces Italian herbs, tying sweetness with savory depth. Smoke is powdery, creamy, and dessert-like. Final Third: Body intensifies as sweetness, tang, leather, and floral notes merge. Lemon zest, pepper, and oak enter the profile, creating a finish reminiscent of a well-aged Opus X on its best day. Sweet, tangy, salty, and floral—this cigar ends with a climactic flourish. Why It Belongs in Privada Privada is about uncovering what the rest of the industry overlooks, and Vault Cigars Series 1 is the epitome of that mission. These cigars were literally locked away, forgotten until Privada opened the doors. The result is a profile so unique, so luxuriously sweet and floral, that it may never exist again. Only Privada members will taste this moment in history—making Series 1 not just a cigar, but a discovery.

Black Label Trading Works Killer Bee Privada James Brown Exclusive Lonsdale Aged 3+ Years
Black Label Trading Works Killer Bee Privada James Brown Exclusive Lonsdale Aged 3+ Years Size: 6.5×44 LonsdaleVitola: LonsdaleWrapper: Ecuadorian MaduroBinder: NicaraguanFillers: NicaraguanFlavor Notes: Cocoa butter, peach juice, nut butter, peppermint oil, thyme, vanilla, butterscotch, cedar, frankincense, white florals, rosewater, almond butter, coffee candy, lemongrass, lemon, umami, cinnamon, roasted coffee, dried herbsPairing Notes: Rye bourbon, sarsaparilla soda, root beer, root beer barrel candy, medium roast coffee, bagel with cream cheese, milk chocolate pretzels, chocolate-covered strawberries, strawberry soda, strawberry ice cream, stout beer, peanutsManufacturer: Black Label Trading Works / Fabrica Oveja Negra (Nicaragua) Privada Storytelling Some cigars feel like personal triumphs. This is one of them. The Killer Bee Lonsdale you see here doesn’t exist on the market anymore. In fact, this was the exact size James Brown—the founder of Black Label Trading Works—kept for himself, smoking it at events but pulling it from shelves in 2020. Before it disappeared, though, he agreed to make and age a special batch just for Privada. James and Angela Brown, the husband-and-wife team behind Black Label, live in Nicaragua, running Fabrica Oveja Negra with a philosophy that mirrors their global life. James, a wine sommelier, and Angela, a world traveler, once owned a bar on a remote African beach before moving to Central America. Their journey led them to the heart of cigars, where they now craft some of the most cult-followed blends in the industry. This cigar is a slice of that cult history—aged over three years under Privada care and rolled at one of the most respected small factories in Nicaragua. Rich, creamy, and wildly complex, it’s an experience normally reserved for James himself, now brought to you in true Privada fashion. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with cocoa butter, tobacco barn, and peach juice sweetness. The smoke has nut butter creaminess layered with peppermint oil, black pepper, thyme, vanilla, chocolate, and a syrupy butterscotch texture. Red mulch, frankincense, cedar, and instant hot chocolate join as the retrohale adds pepper and dried fruit tones. Second Third: Florals bloom—white petals, orange blossom, magnolia, and rosewater. Black pepper fades into white pepper, balancing almond butter, chocolate with almonds, and coffee candy. Lavender and mint peek in, while lemongrass appears as a phantom retrohale note. Smooth, tangy, and deeply floral. Final Third: Becomes vegetal and savory, with lemon zest, salt, umami butteriness, and cinnamon sweetness. Butterscotch shifts into simple syrup, with roasted coffee beans, dried herbs, cedar, and florals closing the experience. Tingling mouthfeel lingers to the finish. Why It Belongs in Privada Privada was built for moments like this: cigars you can’t get anywhere else, in sizes and ages the public never sees. The Killer Bee Lonsdale isn’t just rare—it’s intimate, pulled from James Brown’s own rotation and aged into something transcendent. It belongs in Privada because it embodies exclusivity, artistry, and story—a collector’s piece that also happens to smoke like a masterpiece.

Members snatched them up immediately, drawn to the iconic purple band and the powerhouse Nicaraguan puro inside. At that time, the cigar was vibrant, bold, and bursting with youthful intensity. Now, after three years of Privada aging, this redux is something else entirely. The oily Corojo ’99 wrapper glistens with maturity, and the blend of Criollo ’98 and Corojo ’99 long-fillers has fused into a seamless tapestry of flavor. The anticipation has paid off: what was once fiery and energetic is now refined, balanced, and impossibly smooth. This isn’t just a cigar—it’s a glimpse into what patience, soil, and craft can achieve. The Supreme Leaf has become a modern classic for Aganorsa. But the PCC Exclusive 6×50 Box Press remains a Privada signature, a size that belongs to this club alone, matured into an experience you cannot find anywhere else. Flavor Journey First Third: Bursts with Nicaraguan character—bright orange, apricot, cream, red pepper, and fresh cedar. The volcanic soils of Estelí and Jalapa shine through with vibrant spice and sweetness, underpinned by a faint berry note. Second Third: Red pepper and apricot persist, joined by cream and sharp cedar. The smoke grows richer, bringing in aromas of pilon-fermented tobacco, canned peaches, and clouds tinged with charcoal. Full-flavored, bold, and distinctly Nicaraguan. Final Third: The cigar softens slightly, but the richness remains. Apricot and red pepper weave with cream, cedar, and nuttiness. A subtle sweetness lingers on the finish, leaving you wanting more as the nub burns hot. Why It Belongs in Privada The Aganorsa Supreme Leaf has become a phenomenon, but only Privada members can access this exclusive 6×50 box press redux. With three years of careful aging, it delivers an experience far beyond the original—refined, balanced, and steeped in Nicaraguan heritage. This is what Privada does best: securing exclusives, aging them with care, and reintroducing them at the peak of perfection.

Noel Rojas Rojas Cigars Peruvian Gold Aged 5+ Years

Born in Cuba, he spent time in a Cuban prison before emigrating and reshaping his destiny on the free side of communism. He’s worked the fields, studied with legends, and mastered the art of Nicaraguan tobacco. His name now echoes throughout the boutique cigar world as a master blender and a man deeply connected to the roots of the leaf. The story of Peruvian Gold began years ago when Noel heard a tale from an old Cuban grower: cigar tobacco, they claimed, was first cultivated in Peru, then carried up the Amazon and across the Caribbean to Cuba. When Rojas had the chance to see Peruvian tobacco with his own eyes, he didn’t hesitate. Meeting an Italian landowner whose farm once supplied Zino Davidoff, Noel struck a deal to secure a lot of Peruvian leaf every year for a decade. When he first rolled the blend that would become Peruvian Gold, Noel told me, “This is only for me. I do not sell it.” But with persistence, he agreed to share this treasure with Privada. After more than five years of aging, this cigar has become his signature smoke—his story, his heritage, and his art rolled into one. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens gently with oak, honey, vanilla, black and white pepper, and sandalwood. Bourbon barrel character rises in the background, with faint cinnamon adding sweetness. Retrohale is lively with charred wood and spice. Second Third: Flavors sweeten with confectioner’s sugar, fried dough, honeysuckle, and caramelized cinnamon. The profile becomes creamy, like churro dust mingled with florals. Smoke is thick and voluminous, carrying bourbon and oak notes throughout. Final Third: The cigar crescendos into concentrated richness—sugars, oak, florals, cinnamon, and umami depth fusing together. Apricot-like fruit notes mingle with charred wood, leaving a long, indulgent finish reminiscent of aged bourbon and vanilla custard. Why It Belongs in Privada The Peruvian Gold is more than a cigar—it’s history reborn. It represents a forgotten origin of tobacco, a sacred leaf rediscovered, and a master blender’s personal secret shared with our community. No one else in the world has access to this cigar, and Noel Rojas himself once swore he would never sell it. Yet here it is, aged for over five years and offered only to Privada members. This is what makes Privada different—we uncover treasures meant for no one but legends themselves.

The bold espresso and cedar notes are softened by florals and cream, while the long, firm ash it was designed to produce remains intact—an aesthetic as impressive as the flavors themselves. Released in limited numbers, this cigar captures both performance and artistry, a true Privada moment of rarity. Flavor Journey First Third: Espresso leads with cedar and floral undertones. Sweet cream and a touch of earth round out the introduction, while retrohale shows light pepper and floral elegance. Second Third: Flavors deepen into creamy espresso, woody cedar, and warm herbs. Floral notes expand, adding a bouquet-like quality, with cream softening the profile into balance. Final Third: Espresso returns with vigor, joined by oak, toasted cedar, and earth. Creamy sweetness lingers on the finish, balanced by florals and a faint pepper spice. Smoke remains elegant and consistent until the nub. Why It Belongs in Privada The #Chargerash represents everything Privada stands for: exclusivity, heritage, and discovery. While originally designed for the spectacle of long-ash contests, the cigar’s refined flavor profile and Eiroa craftsmanship elevate it to collectible status. With only about 8,000 cigars made, and over four years of aging, this lancero is now even rarer—and only Privada members have the chance to experience it.

This Privada-exclusive Lonsdale, aged over 5 years, is something even rarer. Rolled at the legendary Plasencia family factory, it takes the already-classic Epicure blend and elevates it with age and refinement. The size itself tells a story—Lonsdale is a format built for connoisseurs, offering clarity and precision in every draw. Crux, founded by a Minneapolis tobacconist and his partner, has quickly established itself as one of the most exciting new-world brands. This release proves it. It’s a Privada-only expression of a cigar that was already destined for greatness, now ripened into perfection. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with barnyard, oats, hay, and cooling floral notes. Retrohale is a blast of black pepper, balanced by honey, apple wood, vanilla, and sugar. The body is strong yet creamy, finishing salty with rising floral sweetness. Second Third: Evolves into confectioner’s sugar, cinnamon, toast, vanilla, citrus, and white pepper. Brings to mind Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal, layered over cedar wood and wheat-like brightness. Final Third: Transitions into sandalwood, incense, powdered sugar, vanilla, charred wood, and herbal green tea. Black pepper returns softly, closing the experience with depth and balance. Why It Belongs in Privada The Crux Epicure Lonsdale Privada Aged 5+ Years belongs in Privada because it embodies everything the club stands for: exclusivity, evolution, and education. This isn’t just a cigar—it’s a living document of how age transforms a modern Connecticut into something extraordinary. Available only through Privada, it’s a once-in-a-lifetime chance to taste a Connecticut Shade done the right way, aged to perfection, and sized for the true aficionado.

The Cannoli PCC By Amendola Cigars Aged 4 Years
The Cannoli PCC By Amendola Cigars Aged 4 Years Size: 5×50 RobustoVitola: RobustoWrapper: Maduro (Nicaraguan-grown)Binder: NicaraguanFillers: NicaraguanFlavor Notes: Dark chocolate-covered strawberries, charred wood, espresso, peppermint, anise, tamarind, cola, leather, Sambuca, roots, cream, black pepperPairing Notes: Holiday fruit cake, French toast, maple syrup, porter or stout beer, high-proof whiskey, Jack Daniels neat, medium to dark roast coffee, chocolate desserts, cannoliManufacturer: Amendola Family Cigar Co. (Nicaragua) Privada Storytelling Some cigars feel like cigars. Others feel like experiences. The Cannoli by Amendola is firmly the latter. When two Italian ex-New Yorkers—men who sound like they walked straight out of Little Italy—approached me with their own cigar project, I was skeptical. Everyone wants to be in the cigar game. But then I heard the stories, saw their hands rolling their own sticks, and finally tasted their Cannoli, and all doubts disappeared. This cigar is a dessert in the form of smoke. Sweet and savory, creamy yet spiced, it mirrors the culinary indulgence it’s named for. Like biting into a decadent pastry, it layers chocolate, coffee, fruit, and spice in waves of complexity. Aged 4 years, it’s softened, deepened, and matured into something remarkable—a true after-dinner centerpiece. The Cannoli isn’t just a cigar; it’s a slice of heritage, a taste of New York Italian culture translated into tobacco. It’s wet, gooey, rich, and unapologetically indulgent—just as it should be. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with bitter dark chocolate, charred wood, espresso, leather, cinnamon, and a peppermint-like spice, accented by tamarind and anise. The retrohale brings red pepper and espresso richness. Second Third: Shifts toward sweeter chocolate, charred woods, and root notes, with cola, leather, and chocolate-covered peppermint bark emerging. Red pepper remains, balanced by smoother cream. Final Third: Closes with Sambuca-like anise, chocolate, cream, roots, and black pepper, joined by lighter roast coffee, vanilla sweetness, and a woody finish. A perfect dessert crescendo. Why It Belongs in Privada Privada exists to showcase cigars that tell stories and capture cultural identity, and The Cannoli does exactly that. It’s a cigar that bridges worlds—Italian pastry indulgence and Nicaraguan tobacco artistry. This cigar reminds us that a smoke can be both luxury and comfort, an indulgence meant to cap a perfect night. It is a dessert Maduro, a smoke that doubles as a memory.

BANG!—a warning shot to the senses. Kristoff Cigars is known for crafting full-bodied, unapologetic blends, but when Privada steps in, the results often push beyond what’s thought possible. The Pistoff Kristoff Gunplay is exactly that: a Lancero exclusive made for Privada members only, a bold experiment that went from a near-miss to a masterpiece. When this blend first landed, it was rough—fiery, unbalanced, even disappointing. We nearly wrote it off. But Privada’s patience is its secret weapon. After nearly a year of resting and proper aging, the Gunplay reemerged as something spectacular. What was once sharp became savory, sweet, and complex—a profile unlike any Kristoff before it. Named Gunplay for its risky move into a lancero format (Kristoff even warned it could be “dangerous”), this cigar has become one of the most unforgettable Privada exclusives to date. It doesn’t whisper its flavors; it kicks down the door with spice, sweetness, and umami. Flavor Journey First Third: Opens with dark toasted bread, minerals, dried figs, prunes, and red currant, balanced by red pepper and salt. A musty sweetness begins to layer in as the bread note anchors the foundation. Second Third: Things get wild—black cherry soda, teriyaki beef jerky, maple wood, and floral powdery smoke. The sensation is sweet, savory, and spicy, like the perfect bite of Chinese orange chicken fresh from the wok. Final Third: A crescendo of soy sauce, black cherry, orange zest, fried batter, red pepper oil, and charred wood, finishing with an earthy clay note. The spice lingers long after the last puff, demanding reflection on what you just smoked. Why It Belongs in Privada This cigar proves the Privada philosophy: sometimes greatness just needs time. What began as a rough, almost unsmokeable cigar became, after patient aging, a spicy, savory, sweet revelation. Kristoff’s boldest blend in a daring vitola, exclusive to Privada, transformed into what may be one of the most unique cigars of the year. This is what we live for—the magic of aging, the thrill of risk, and the satisfaction of discovery.

This isn’t just another boutique cigar; it’s a legacy project, a salute to the bond between Privada and El Titán that has pushed boutique culture to the edge of its limits. Flavor Journey From the first draw, Damnation asserts itself with bold waves of figs and bittersweet chocolate. As the smoke builds, leather and earth coat the palate, deepened by a peppery edge from the Criollo ligero. In the midsection, the cigar rounds out with a rich creaminess, as the Brazilian Arapiraca wrapper unveils molasses-like sweetness against Estelí’s signature strength. The final third is a storm of leather, dark spice, and espresso, leaving a lingering finish that’s as haunting as it is satisfying. Why It Belongs in Privada Damnation embodies the Privada philosophy — pairing heritage with risk, honoring tradition while creating something daring and unforgettable. It’s born in one of the most respected U.S. factories, where every cigar is rolled by hand with passion and purpose. The partnership between Privada and El Titán de Bronze has always produced memorable cigars, but Damnation takes it a step further: a declaration that boutique culture is meant to push boundaries, even if it means dancing in the dark.

Roll Call by Smoke Showing Crew
Our Connecticut Shade Robusto is the perfect cigar for any time of day. Its smooth and balanced profile makes it an ideal companion to a fresh cup of coffee — one of the many reasons we chose to call it Roll Call. If you’ve ever sat through roll call at the firehouse, you know there’s no shortage of coffee cups in hand. That’s why we incorporated a coffee cup into the band design — a nod to those early moments of camaraderie and connection. This cigar also pairs wonderfully with a lower-proof bourbon, allowing the subtle flavors of the cigar to shine without being overpowered. The name Roll Call also reflects what cigars are all about — gathering with friends and family, sharing stories, updates, and enjoying meaningful moments together. Much like the start of a shift, lighting up this cigar sets the tone for good conversation and connection. We hope you enjoy Roll Call as much as we do. Roll Call in the Fire Service: In the fire service, “roll call” refers to the formal process of accounting for personnel at the start of a shift or during emergency operations. Its roots trace back to early military traditions, where accountability and readiness were critical to mission success. As organized fire departments emerged in the 18th and 19th centuries, particularly in cities like London and New York, the need for structured routines—including shift changes, equipment checks, and crew accountability—became essential. Roll call typically occurs at the beginning of a firefighter’s shift. It ensures that all assigned personnel are present, properly equipped, and briefed on duties, station conditions, apparatus status, and any special instructions. It also reinforces discipline, preparedness, and team cohesion. Today, while some departments use digital accountability systems, the tradition of roll call remains a foundational practice that underscores the fire service’s core values: readiness, responsibility, and brotherhood.
