Privada Storytelling
The Red and Blue GMT is a fusion of timepiece elegance and tobacco mastery. Rooted in the Watch Series ethos, it nods to luxury GMT watches—red and blue bezel icons. Aged over three years, it’s a matured blend designed for the connoisseur who appreciates depth with precision. Think of it as a vintage-inspired GMT: timeless, balanced, high-performing.
Flavor Journey
-
First third: Creamy nuttiness and cedar announce themselves, layered with soft pepper and light espresso notes.
-
Mid-smoke: The tobacco core deepens into earth and spice, while a cocoa or sweet-toned mid-palate suggests dark chocolate or brown sugar.
-
Final third: The blend grows woody and savory—oak, coffee grind, and leather lead into a long, smooth finish with nuanced warmth.
As with other Watch Series cigars, expect a plush, elegant medium–medium‑full profile.
