Privada Storytelling
The Quick Draw series was created to deliver Southern Draw’s signature flavor in a compact, approachable size. The Pennsylvania Broadleaf edition, in Corona Gorda vitola, is a powerhouse of grit and richness, condensed into a format that balances intensity with finesse.
Robert and Sharon Holt built Southern Draw on the values of family, fellowship, and craft. With Quick Draw Pennsylvania, they give smokers a bold option that doesn’t compromise on time. It’s a nod to the working man’s cigar—full-bodied, flavorful, and perfect for those who want to experience big tobacco character in under an hour.
Flavor Journey
The cigar kicks off with dark espresso and black pepper, instantly establishing its strength. A few draws in, dark chocolate and leather enter the fold, bringing balance. Midway, toasted bread and subtle dried fruit notes reveal themselves, softening the edges of the broadleaf intensity. By the final third, the blend crescendos into a mix of oak, molasses, and spice—robust yet smooth, classic Pennsylvania Broadleaf with Nicaraguan craftsmanship.
Why It Belongs in Privada
Privada thrives on cigars that punch above their weight, and the Quick Draw Pennsylvania does exactly that. In its Corona Gorda format, it delivers a full, complex smoking experience without requiring a full evening’s commitment. It’s an ideal member cigar: boutique in spirit, authentic in execution, and bold enough to be remembered.
