Privada Storytelling

The CAO BX3 is a bold exploration of Brazilian tobacco—using it in every leaf to express unique terroir and spicy richness. It doesn’t follow the Connecticut-wrapped path; instead, it forges a new one where Brazil’s flavors shine. It’s for those moments when familiarity meets discovery, when depth matters more than complexity.

Flavor Journey

• Light-up: Rich leather and pepper, with bursts of dark espresso and citrus-floral undercurrents—a reminder this isn’t a mild cigar.

• Midway: Leather and wood smooth out, revealing Brazil-nut cream, coffee, and dark-chocolate sweetness balanced by citrus-bright spice.

• Final third: Earth deepens, pepper sharpens, and a lasting combination of leathery spice and nutty sweetness closes the journey.

Why It Belongs in Privada

Privada values earthy intensity crafted with intention. The BX3 is that rare animal: Brazilian in focus, balanced in delivery, embracing boldness without bombast. It’s a cigar that stands up to time and conversation, demanding attention by design.
