Privada Storytelling
Meet the Clydesdale, the flagship of Stallone’s Cowboy Series: a Nicaraguan puro with a shaggy foot that pays homage to the mighty draft horse. Rolled by Tony Barrios at Tabacalera Las Villas, it’s built large in size (6½˝×60), flavor, and story. This cigar isn’t subtle—it commands presence, invites introspection by a firepit, and rewards the bold—the perfect Privada-style champion.
Flavor Journey
First Third:
With the shaggy foot, the first draws are explosive—straight black pepper forward, red pepper zing on the back of the throat, and a long retrohale echoing that heat. Campfire smoke and black coffee arrive early, while salt and burnt marshmallow add textural intrigue
Mid-Smoke:
The cigar deepens into dried fruit and earthy barnyard flavors. Strength hits full, while deep tobacco and dark chocolate linger. Burn and ash may require occasional correction—but the flavor payoff is worth it
Final Third:
Spice dominates again—cinnamon tingle, black/red pepper, fire-roasted tobacco, and a burnt finish. Early sweetness fades. Retrohale remains high-heat cinnamon pepper. Strength peaks at full-plus .
Why It Belongs in Privada
This is strength with nuance: a bold, small-batch Nicaraguan puro with aged tobacco, handcrafted finesse, and a narrative that bridges cowboy heritage with full-flavor exploration. The massive size, shaggy foot novelty, cigar-company storytelling, and high scorers all add up to Privada-worthy appeal.
