Privada Storytelling
The Evil Eye Aged 2+ Years draws upon one of the most enduring symbols in history—an ancient talisman said to ward off misfortune—reimagined here as a cigar for the discerning smoker. Privada Cigar Club, always at the intersection of story and smoke, presents this Costa Rican creation as a marriage of tradition and superstition. From Costa Rica’s lush valleys to the expert hands of master rollers, the Evil Eye has rested patiently, aging for over nine months in the factory before another long repose in our vaults.
In the end, what you light is not just a cigar, but a symbol—an emblem of resilience, luck, and craftsmanship. The Evil Eye finds its way from ancient folklore to your humidor, proving that some legends don’t just endure; they evolve.
Flavor Journey
-
First Third: Opens with a swirl of sarsaparilla, thyme, and rye bread, underpinned by vanilla and powdered sugar. White peppercorn lingers while the retrohale delivers red pepper spice.
-
Second Third: Flavors converge into a culinary experience—oregano, olive oil, brie cheese, and lemon zest—balanced by a sweet cream note and freeze-dried strawberries, with cedar rounding out the profile.
-
Final Third: Strawberries and cream dominate, evolving into a shortbread finish reminiscent of strawberry shortcake. Notes of citrus zest, sourdough bread, and light roast coffee close out the experience with finesse.
