Privada Storytelling
Balanced approachability shaped with nuance
The Medalist Toro was crafted to reconnect Alec Bradley with fans of milder cigars by blending a creamy Honduran Connecticut wrapper over a Honduran core and Nicaraguan fillers. From the first puff its profile unfolds in graham bread sweetened by cream and cedar, followed by gentle vanilla and fruit notes.

This cigar is an invitation to return to tobacco via measured refinement.
