Privada Storytelling
The Turducken takes its cue from the legendary holiday dish — a turkey stuffed with a duck stuffed with a chicken — an indulgent, layered meal that embodies festive excess. Privada and the Limited Cigar Association translate that bold culinary concept into tobacco form, creating a cigar as rich and surprising as its namesake.
This 6×60 Gordo is not only a feast for the senses but also a tribute to Thanksgiving’s spirit of tradition and celebration. Wrapped in a sweet, savory Jalapa Maduro and bound with earthy San Andrés, the blend incorporates a trifecta of filler origins — Nicaragua, the Dominican Republic, and Mexico — delivering a fusion of cultures and flavors in each puff. Like the dish, it’s a cigar that invites conversation, indulgence, and joy.
Flavor Journey
The opening third bursts with sweet earth, cocoa, and roasted nuts layered over peppery brightness. Midway, herbal notes join with savory umami and warm baking spice, reminiscent of a holiday feast. The final third deepens into espresso, dark chocolate, and wood, finishing hearty and satisfying with a lingering spice.
Why It Belongs in Privada
Privada cigars aren’t just about flavor — they’re about moments. The Turducken belongs because it captures the essence of a holiday tradition while offering a fresh, playful twist on cigar blending. Like its culinary counterpart, it’s bold, indulgent, and unforgettable, embodying the creative storytelling and adventurous spirit that define Privada and the LCA.
