Manufacturer: Stallone Cigars (Tabacalera Palma, Dominican Republic)
Tony Barrios of Stallone Cigars has carved his reputation with bold, full-bodied blends that demand respect from the smoker. Yet nothing prepared us for the day he called unexpectedly to say, “Your Privada exclusive is ready.” No negotiations. No planning. Just pure passion and generosity, rolled into a project meant only for our members.
The result was the Stallone Exclusivo Privada, a cigar unlike anything we had ever seen before. From the moment it arrived—with cellophane stamped with the Privada logo—it felt like history. That sheen, that sumptuous box press, and then the blend: San Andrés wrapper aged three years, Venezuelan Burley binder aged five years in rum casks, Nicaraguan fillers aged four years, with Ometepe tobacco finished in oak. This was not just a cigar; it was a statement. A wild experiment in tobacco aging and treatment that somehow came together in perfect balance.
After over five years of Privada-controlled aging, it has evolved even further. What began as bold and mysterious is now rich, creamy, and layered with flavors no other cigar on the market can match. This is why Privada exists—to bring members something so singular, so experimental, that smoking it feels like uncovering a hidden chapter in tobacco history.
First Third: Vegetal and smoky with barnyard and cocoa aromas. The cold draw recalls cherry pipe tobacco and licorice, while the foot offers chocolate and rich tobacco. The smoke is creamy and chocolate-laden, balanced with bread crust, red pepper retrohale, BBQ jerky, and teriyaki glaze. Cinnamon lingers in the retro as the flavors weave into balance.
Second Third: The teriyaki glaze intensifies, paired with toasted rye bread, milk chocolate, and a saline edge. Retrohale sharpens with cinnamon spice. The smoke texture becomes rich cream, lifted by a lemon-espresso brightness. Apricot joins chocolate and rye, showcasing an uncommon but harmonious interplay.
Final Third: Chocolate, cinnamon, and oak dominate the retrohale, while the draw features creamy cocoa, lemon, apricot, earth, and medium roast coffee. Rye bread returns as the profile drifts toward pie-like flavors—pecan, apple cider vinegar, and sweet vanilla. Balanced, indulgent, and unlike anything else in the Privada vault.
This cigar is the definition of why Privada exists. A spontaneous act of generosity by Tony Barrios became a once-in-a-lifetime experiment in aging and fermentation. Rum-cask binders, oak-aged Ometepe fillers, and years of Privada care have created a cigar no one else in the industry could have imagined. Bold, balanced, experimental, and aged to perfection—this is the Privada promise in physical form.
