A BLEND WORTH WAITING FOR - You never know when or where inspiration will strike. In the case of Private Bale, a simple drawing set the course for what would be an eight-year journey from start to finish. The tobacco selection process is different for this project. First, only the oldest tobaccos are chosen, but bales aren’t simply selected. Each Bale is pulled apart and inspected for quality. Leaves that don’t meet the criteria for Private Bale are set aside.  This is a rigorous process, but necessary to produce a blend of superior quality. Once production has ended each cigar rests for nearly 9 months before review and packaging can begin. Private Bale’s anatomy is extremely complex, comprised of our best Nicaraguan secos, visos and ligeros grown in Esteli and Jalapa. Surrounding these aged fillers are two Corojo99 binders from Jalapa. Finishing the cigar, we selected a very special Habano cover leaf from Ecuador, chosen for its complex flavor and rich color. Two shapes were rolled for the project’s debut which best showcase the intent of the blend. Pajaro 6” X 50 and Pajarito 5” X 52. It is said that art is in the eye of the beholder. We hope you agree that we have assembled a masterpiece for you to enjoy.
