Privada Storytelling
Minos was born from Sinistro’s darkest instincts and boldest blending philosophy. Every year, they release something meant only for the brave, and this 6.5×60 box pressed belicoso is exactly that. Built from a decade aged Dominican Corojo Maduro wrapper and an unapologetically powerful filler mix from the Dominican Republic, Nicaragua, and the USA, Minos is a cigar that demands your full attention.
Its name tells the story. Minos is the judge of the underworld, a figure who decides your fate. Light this cigar and you’ll understand why. Thick smoke. Deep flavor. A presence that dominates the room. Minos doesn’t ask for permission. It announces itself with force, reminding you why Sinistro has become a cult favorite among smokers who crave intensity with sophistication.
For the collectors, for the night owls, for the heavy hitters who want to feel a cigar in their chest as much as their palate… Minos is that moment.
Flavor Journey
The cigar opens with a blast of espresso, cocoa, and pepper, coating the palate with warm, dense smoke. As the burn progresses, leather and roasted nuts rise, supported by an earthy backbone from the Nicaraguan ligero. Midway through, the sweetness of molasses and dark wood begins to weave in, softening the power without losing focus. The final third brings a heavy, smoky crescendo: pepper, dark chocolate, charred oak, and lingering earth for a long, commanding finish.
Why It Belongs in Privada
Privada is about cigars with personality, edge, rarity, and story. Minos checks every box. It is bold but not chaotic. Powerful but not reckless. A blend that pushes boundaries while remaining crafted with intention. It is a cigar for seasoned smokers who want something unforgettable, something that leaves an impression long after the smoke fades.
This is the kind of cigar Privada members gravitate toward — a statement piece, a conversation starter, a heavyweight.
