Privada Storytelling
This is not just a sampler — it’s a time capsule. The ANTBEN x Privada 5 Year Aged 5 Pack is the result of vision, patience, and artistry. Each cigar represents a region, a technique, and a philosophy. Rolled five years ago, then tucked away in golden cello, these cigars have quietly transformed into rare masterpieces.
From Estelí to Condega, Jalapa to Ometepe, and the hidden San Juan del Río, this pack brings together the soul of Nicaragua in five distinct interpretations. Each size and wrapper tells its own story, yet together they form a cohesive collection — like five instruments playing the same symphony. The aging has unified them under one theme: smooth, balanced, and unforgettable.

Why It Belongs in Privada
This pack is Privada in its purest form: rare, aged, and unlike anything you’ll find elsewhere. The collection was not made for the market — it was made for art. Five years of rest have elevated these cigars from great to legendary. Each format offers a unique perspective on Nicaraguan terroir, and together, they showcase why Privada continues to set the standard for aged, boutique cigar experiences.
