Privada Storytelling
The Stag lunges from the wild—a bold Toro that commands respect, yet holds wise elegance. Released in March 2024 via the LCA, this cigar symbolizes strength tempered by maturity. In Privada, we buffalo no one—but we savor the ones who stand their ground. The Stag is that: powerful, graceful, and still enough to appreciate the forest around it.
Flavor Journey
With the first light, earthy leather and black pepper burst forward, grounded by dark espresso. The mid-smoke evolves into toasted walnut and smoked cedar, balanced by a whisper of molasses sweetness. As the burn continues, cocoa nibs deepen the profile, while a thread of clove threads through the finish. The experience is grounded and steady, powerful yet reflective—a true Toro narrative of nature and nuance.
Why It Belongs in Privada
Because The Stag is the kind of cigar that demands presence. It’s not flashy, but it won’t be ignored. Crafted with Fonseca strength and aged to finesse, it delivers bold flavors without shouting. In Privada, we honor cigars that earn attention through integrity. The Stag stands—regal, rooted, remarkable.
