Privada Storytelling
Yellow Bird is a unique blend born from vintage Aladino leaf—reminiscent of hidden gems in a field of gold. Rolled as a slender lancero and aged more than two years, it balances elegance with depth. This cigar evokes visions of summertime brightness and distills them into tobacco form—playful, refined, unmistakable. In Privada, we honor blends that surprise through lineage and aging; Yellow Bird flies that flight.
Flavor Journey
The first draw greets you with bourbon barrel sweetness and creamy citrus, layered over fresh-cut cedar and roasted nuts. Midway, bright lime, green apple, and honey-crisp notes dance with black pepper and rawhide. As the smoke deepens, tamarind richness emerges alongside cardamom and cocoa cereal accents. The final third softens into creamy lemon-lime sweetness and cedar fade—vivid, balanced, and long-lasting.
Why It Belongs in Privada
Because Yellow Bird transforms aged rarity into vibrant poetry. This lancero isn’t just lean—it’s sharp, nuanced, and deliberate. With 2.5+ years of vault aging, it translates pedigree into performance. In Privada, we seek cigars that defy scale and conventions—Yellow Bird is voluminous flavor tucked in slender form, and rarely so.
