MOON TRAVELER
Some journeys are measured in miles. Others are measured in imagination. From the earliest explorers who sailed beyond the edge of known maps to the astronauts who carried humanity to the moon, progress has always belonged to those willing to venture into the unknown. For Moon Traveler, master blender Raul Lanuza crafted a cigar worthy of that spirit. Wrapped in rich Mexican San Andrรฉs and filled with Nicaraguan tobaccos from Jalapa and Estelรญ, this full-bodied blend delivers a bold and memorable journey from first light to final draw. As fireworks illuminate the sky this Fourth of July, Moon Traveler serves as a reminder that the next great adventure is always waiting at Privada Cigar Club.
Profile: Full-bodied and medium-plus in strength. A rich, slow-burning smoke that delivers ample flavor and a long, rewarding finish.
Tasting notes: Charred oak, black pepper, black cherry, dark chocolate, leather, mineral-rich earth, molasses, and baking spice.
Pairing: Bourbon, iced coffee, smoked pulled pork, grilled steaks, barbecue ribs, pecan pie, dark chocolate, and cherry cobbler.
FUEGO
Born from the volcanic soils of Nicaragua, Fuego is a Connecticut that refuses to play it safe. Expertly blended and rolled at AJ Fernandez's Tabacalera Annex, this 6×54 box-pressed cigar is made with 100% Nicaraguan-grown tobaccos and finished in a silky Nicaraguan Connecticut Shade wrapper. The result is smooth on the surface, but bold underneath. Creamy vanilla and toasted almond lead the way, followed by red pepper, dried citrus peel, and warm cedar. It is refined without being soft, approachable without being predictable, and built for smokers who want elegance with real fire behind it.
