Privada Storytelling
Año Viejo—Spanish for “Old Year”—captures the ritual of reflection and renewal. Rolled with intention, aged thoughtfully, and released in January 2024 via LCA, this Toro bridges the end of one cycle into the next. In Privada, we appreciate cigars with purpose—and Año Viejo brings ritual, heritage, and contemplation into every draw. It’s a smoke for looking back and moving forward simultaneously.
Flavor Journey
Lighting Año Viejo delivers mature tobacco wrapped in cedar and black pepper. Midway, baking spice unfolds alongside dried fruit and dark chocolate, layering warmth and complexity. As the smoke deepens, aged leather and earthy undertones emerge, blending into a nuanced finale. The slowly lingering spice and mocha-rich finish invite reflection long after the ashes fall.
Why It Belongs in Privada
Because Año Viejo is more than a cigar—it’s a ceremony. It honors endings and beginnings, built with deliberation, aged for depth, and released with mindful timing. In Privada, we elevate meaning in every cigar; this one is our new-year story in leaf. It aligns with our ethos: flavor wrapped in narrative, ready for ritual.
