Privada Storytelling
Rose Gold AP is the second installment in Privada’s Horology-inspired Watch Series, a collaboration between AJ Fernandez and the Limited Cigar Association for Privada Cigar Club. As homage to the iconic Audemars Piguet Rose Gold Royal Oak, this cigar is a beauty in design and taste: the sleek mirror polish of your AP framed in tobacco form. Rolled with a refined Nicaraguan puro blend, Rose Gold delivers elegance and precision. It’s crafted to echo the Royal Oak’s stature: sophisticated, bold, and unmistakable.
Flavor Journey
First third: Creamy, lightly sweet introduction with cedar and soft leather. There’s a whisper of nuttiness and spice—balanced, controlled, with sophistication.
Middle third: Core notes deepen—cedar transitions to earth and toasted nut. Warm spice appears: white pepper and light cinnamon. The hybrid wrapper brings depth—unique texture and flavor.
Final third: Rich tobacco continues with a drier profile of earth and wood. The finish is smooth, creamy, and long—no harshness, just finesse.
Why It Belongs in Privada
This is a rare hybrid leaf experience—its kind never seen in AJ’s lineup. It’s small-batch (LCA monthly release), story-rich, and executed with craftsmanship. Like the AP Royal Oak, it blends luxury and edge. The Watch Series lifts tobacco to horological heights—this one belongs in Privada’s vault.
