Description
Privada Storytelling
A decade ago, AJ Fernandez launched the New World line to honor both his father Ismael and the historic moment tobacco first reached European shores in 1492. It was a statement: bold, unapologetic, and unapologetically Nicaraguan. Ten years later, New World Decenio is not just a cigar—it’s a celebration of the journey. Crafted with aged tobaccos and dressed in an Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper, the Decenio represents AJ’s growth from upstart to global powerhouse, while still retaining the artisanal fire that made his name.
When you hold this cigar, you hold ten years of evolution in your hand. It’s the taste of persistence, of a father and son carving a legacy into the very fabric of the cigar world. This isn’t just a smoke—it’s a milestone.
Flavor Journey
The first puffs bring a wave of cedar and espresso, framed by a creamy texture that coats the palate. As the burn progresses, roasted nuts and cocoa emerge, layered with a subtle molasses sweetness that nods to aged rum barrels. The retrohale adds depth with baking spice and pepper, while the finish lingers with leather and earth. Every draw feels like a page turning in a decade-long story—a testament to patience, craft, and passion.
Why It Belongs in Privada
Privada thrives on history, rarity, and cigars with a story worth retelling. The New World Decenio embodies all three. It celebrates ten years of AJ Fernandez redefining what Nicaraguan cigars can be, while spotlighting the artistry and heritage that fuels boutique culture. This is more than a commemorative cigar—it’s a symbol of how far we’ve come, and where we’re going. That spirit is why it belongs in Privada.
