This is history in your humidor. The first national Puerto Rican cigar in decades, made entirely from island-grown tobacco, produced in a run of just 9,000 cigars. Rice n Beans embodies everything Privada exists to showcase: rarity, authenticity, and a story untold anywhere else in the cigar world.

From the first draw, Damnation asserts itself with bold waves of figs and bittersweet chocolate. As the smoke builds, leather and earth coat the palate, deepened by a peppery edge from the Criollo ligero. In the midsection, the cigar rounds out with a rich creaminess, as the Brazilian Arapiraca wrapper unveils molasses-like sweetness against Estelí’s signature strength. The final third is a storm of leather, dark spice, and espresso, leaving a lingering finish that’s as haunting as it is satisfying.

First Third: A blast of white pepper erupts before mellowing into red pepper, bread crust, florals, cocoa bean, and herbal notes like dried fennel and parsley. Smoke is creamy but leaves a dry, tannic finish.

Second Third: Charred cedar and charcoal arrive alongside chocolate bread, celery salt, and roasted fennel. Vanilla Dr. Pepper sweetness appears with salted peanuts on the retrohale. Bread fades slightly as florals intensify.

Final Third: Sweet-tart balance defines the finale—lime zest, caramelized sugar, charred oak, salted nuts, chocolate bread, dried fruits, and a subtle vinegar zing. Finishes dry, tannic, and commanding, with lingering pepper and florals.

First Third: Opens with dark toasted bread, minerals, dried figs, prunes, and red currant, balanced by red pepper and salt. A musty sweetness begins to layer in as the bread note anchors the foundation.

Second Third: Things get wild—black cherry soda, teriyaki beef jerky, maple wood, and floral powdery smoke. The sensation is sweet, savory, and spicy, like the perfect bite of Chinese orange chicken fresh from the wok.

Final Third: A crescendo of soy sauce, black cherry, orange zest, fried batter, red pepper oil, and charred wood, finishing with an earthy clay note. The spice lingers long after the last puff, demanding reflection on what you just smoked.

The first puffs explode with classic Corojo spice: red pepper, earth, and cedar rushing across the palate with unapologetic force. As the burn settles in, the profile deepens into leather, toasted wood, and a natural sweetness that only authentic Cuban seed Corojo delivers. By the halfway point, the flavors layer into a rich, full-bodied cadence that feels both old world and intensely modern. The final third closes with powerful earth, warm spice, and a lingering depth that stays long after the cigar is finished. Because this is exactly what LCA was designed to deliver: access to heritage that would otherwise disappear. A rare seed. A discontinued line. A legendary profile resurrected for one moment only. Straight Jacket represents history, craft, and flavor in their purest forms, and Privada members appreciate cigars with a real story behind the smoke. A full Honduran puro built entirely from original Eiroa Cuban seed Corojo, grown in Honduras and selected specifically for this limited revival. Rolled in a first-time 6 x 52 toro format and banded with newly redesigned artwork created for this exclusive release.
