Privada Storytelling
Adrian Magnus XSO Blue is one of those cigars that sneaks up on you. You hear the name, you see the presentation, and you think you know what it’s going to be… until you light it and realize it’s something entirely different. XSO Blue takes the Adrian Magnus philosophy of elegance and blends it with a more spirited, energetic personality. It is refined, yes, but not quiet. It carries a pulse.
The robusto size is the perfect choice for this blend. Compact, concentrated, and expressive from the first draw, it delivers flavor with purpose instead of wasting time. XSO Blue feels like a boutique cigar made for people who appreciate sophistication but still crave a little fire in the profile. It shifts, evolves, and keeps you hooked without ever becoming overwhelming.
This is the kind of cigar Privada members love discovering: intentional, flavorful, boutique, and crafted with a sense of identity. Light it, and you immediately feel why the Magnus name has been steadily building a cult following.
Flavor Journey
The cigar opens with caramelized spice and roasted nuts wrapped in a warm cedar glow. A creamy texture develops early, smoothing the edges of the spice as cocoa dust and light pepper settle into the background. Midway through, the sweetness becomes richer while earth and toasted wood balance the profile. The final third tightens into a clean, flavorful finish with lingering cream, soft pepper, and warm cedar.
Why It Belongs in Privada
Because XSO Blue is modern boutique craft executed with intention. It is flavorful without being heavy, refined without being muted, and expressive without losing balance. The blend delivers transitions, personality, and construction worthy of the Privada experience. It feels like a cigar built for people who actually pay attention to what’s happening in the smoke.
Production Notes
Rolled in small batches using Ecuadorian Habano wrapper leaf selected for aroma and texture. Nicaraguan binder and fillers were chosen for their ability to deliver sweetness, spice, and balance within the compact robusto format. A slow fermentation and careful aging process give the blend its creamy, polished character.
