Privada Storytelling
The Color Series Black and Yellow, also known as No Puppets Allowed, is a statement cigar—a declaration that Privada is unafraid to disrupt an industry often too comfortable in its ways. Originally part of a limited seasonal release from AJ Fernandez, this Nicaraguan Puro never carried his name but was entirely grown and crafted on his Estelí farms.
Aged 3.5 years, this cigar belongs to a chapter in our Color Series defined by rebellion, resilience, and authenticity. The cease-and-desist battles, the whispers from the titans of tobacco, the attempts to keep Privada from shaking up their quiet empire—it all makes this release even more meaningful. This isn’t just a cigar. It’s proof that the culture cannot be controlled, and that real passion for tobacco will always find its way to the people who deserve it most: you, the smoker.
Flavor Journey
From the first draw, you’re enveloped in rich cocoa, cocoa butter, and hazelnut, layered with vanilla and fresh cedar. A touch of black pepper and dried thyme on the retrohale creates the feel of an herb-crusted bread kissed with chocolate sweetness.
As the second third opens, the pepper evolves into red spice, while the body grows sweeter with cream, cocoa, and dried fruits—apples, mangos, and a raspberry tang that surprises the palate. The retrohale remains dynamic, offering bread crust, herbs, and cream in equal measure.
The final third builds toward a crescendo: sweet cedar, cream, cayenne, espresso, and oregano, leaving behind the lasting impression of a cigar that marries boldness with elegance.
Why It Belongs in Privada
The Black and Yellow isn’t simply another aged Nicaraguan Puro—it’s a relic from AJ’s farms, released under circumstances that highlight the friction between innovation and tradition. Privada thrives in that space. We exist to uncover and share the stories the industry wants hidden. This cigar is not just smoke—it’s resistance, history, and triumph rolled into one.
