Requiem Connecticut is the genteel expression of AJ Fernandez’s celebrated San Lotano lineage—a delicate salute to shade-grown Connecticut flavor with a core built on depth. It’s Ecuadorian elegance draped over Honduran and Nicaraguan craftsmanship, delivering refined complexity in a mild-to-medium frame. In Privada’s lineup, it’s the sunrise serenade—gentle power, balanced charm, and layered enough to reward repeated attention.
The cigar opens with creamy nut notes alongside soft cedar, ushered by a delicate pepper spice. Early draws bring toasted almonds and pistachios mingled with white pepper and a whisper of citrus zest. Mid-smoke, the coffee-latte and cedar core deepen, while earth and black pepper weave a subtle mid-palate tension. During the final third, mild leather and lingering nut-meets-spice tones round out the experience, capping with a smooth cream-and-nut finish. It’s a well-crafted arc that feels familiar, yet engaging throughout.
This San Lotano hits the quiet balance between charm and substance—Privada values that. It’s polished, elegant, and full of layered nuance without overt strength. A.J. Fernandez proves once again that Connecticut doesn’t need to be dull. It’s a daily companion cigar with thoughtful seasoning, perfect for ritual or reflective pause.
