Privada Storytelling
Oliva’s Crown Jewel
The Master Blends III is Oliva’s flagship for connoisseurs. Originally reserved for the family and select insiders, it was eventually released in limited runs to showcase the pinnacle of their blending expertise. Built with rare sun grown Broadleaf over Nicaraguan Ligero, this cigar was made not just to impress—but to endure.
From the first draw, bold espresso and dark chocolate coat the palate. Cedar and leather follow closely, delivering structure and texture. As the cigar opens up, notes of roasted nuts, cinnamon, and creamy sweetness create complexity without ever breaking the balance. A whisper of floral and graham cracker emerges before the final third returns to earth and spice with a mature, structured finish.
Flavor Journey
The first third opens with espresso, leather, and bitter cocoa
The second third brings in creamy almond, cinnamon, and a touch of sweetness
The final third settles into earthy spice, charred cedar, and lingering dark chocolate
Draw is firm with slight resistance. Burn line is razor sharp. Smoke production is dense and satisfying, with a finish that rewards a slow cadence.
Why It Belongs in Privada
Master Blends III is for those who know what they’re tasting. It speaks in layers. It holds back and reveals itself only when you pay attention. That kind of experience is rare—and exactly what Privada is about.
This is a cigar made to age, to savor, and to respect. And that’s exactly why it belongs in your humidor.
