Privada Storytelling
Few names carry the weight of quiet promise like Edgar Sued. Born and raised in the Dominican Republic, tobacco is not just his livelihood—it is his identity. For years, Edgar worked under the shadow of master blenders such as Chico Rivas, learning the intricacies of fermentation, the patience of pilón management, and the delicate artistry of Dominican blending. Today, with his own factory, he finally steps into the spotlight with a cigar that bears his signature in every leaf.
The Monovarietal Corojo Edition is a bold statement: a Dominican puro composed entirely of Corojo, but drawn from different primings and parts of the plant. This choice is both daring and demanding. Unlike Nicaragua, where the raw power of the soil ensures easier blends, Dominican tobacco requires time, finesse, and culinary precision. Done right, however, the result is transcendent. This cigar proves it.
Aged for 5+ years, it showcases what only a Dominican puro can: rich, nuanced flavor without palate fatigue. It is sweet, spiced, earthy, and creamy all at once—an elegant dessert cigar that reveals the skill of a rising master.
Flavor Journey
First Third: Opens with molasses, cedar sharpness, and damp earth, evolving into blueberry, licorice, and confectioner’s sugar. Hints of brownie and vanilla custard appear alongside cedar and floral touches.
Second Third: Deepens into Christmas fruit cake, with pine, cedar, prune, and cashew butter creaminess. Balanced layers of baked fruits, herbs, and chocolate graham crackers dominate.
Final Third: Climaxes with cinnamon, cayenne spice, vanilla custard, powdered sugar, and hazelnut over a buttery, herbal base. Smooth yet bold, it finishes with a lingering richness of sweet cream and wood.
