Privada Storytelling
Named for its fully Maduro composition ("Capa, Banda, Tripa"), Eiroa CBT Maduro is Christian Eiroa’s tribute to bold Honduran craftsmanship. Every leaf—wrapper, binder, filler—comes from lush Maduro primings, building rich flavor without overwhelming. In Privada’s selection, CBT is the concentrated shot: compact in size, immense in body, and rooted in legacy and precision.
Flavor Journey
From the first light, CBT opens with chewy charred oak, deep earth, warm pepper, and dark chocolate. Early floral and anise/licorice whispers balance the bold, while espresso and leather emerge mid‑smoke. The retrohale brings crackling spice and lingering licorice. Through the finish, the profile remains consistent: espresso, meaty tobacco, and smoky oak round out the dense, satisfying nub.
Why It Belongs in Privada
Privada celebrates boutique depth in compact form—and CBT hits that sweet spot. It channels Camacho Triple Maduro’s legacy, but with Eiroa finesse: intense yet structured, bold yet drinkable. Perfect for a focused ritual or a quick but full-bodied statement.
