Privada Storytelling
Strength in Endurance
Named after Pancho Villa’s stalwart stallion, Jilguero stands firm—bold, balanced, and unwavering from start to finish. The thick San Andrés Maduro wrapper brings earthy, spicy, and subtly sweet character in a robust 60-gauge format. It’s not flashy; it’s dependable—just like the horse it honors.
