Privada Storytelling

Two Decades Rolled Into One Smoke

This is AJ Fernandez looking back—and flexing forward. The 20th Anniversary Toro is a culmination of technique, terroir, and time, rolled into one bold expression. With AJ’s personal broadleaf grown in Nicaragua, it’s the kind of cigar that smokes like a signature—fierce, refined, and unapologetically rich. It honors the journey while refusing to slow down.

Flavor Journey

First Third: Earth and espresso dominate early, laced with black pepper and charred oak
Middle Third: Dark chocolate and molasses soften the spice; nutmeg and dried fig sneak in
Final Third: Boldness returns—cinnamon, earth, and leather come together for a slow, structured finish

This isn’t just an anniversary cigar—it’s a declaration of legacy. Bold but composed, AJ’s 20th is a perfect match for the Privada collector: story-driven, deeply personal, and crafted with purpose. It rewards attention and demands appreciation.
