Privada Cigar Club's Thanksgiving Day release — a 6 x 60 Gordo built the way the dish was: layered, oversized, and completely unapologetic.
The name tells you everything. Turducken is Privada's annual nod to the holiday nobody does halfway — chicken inside duck inside turkey — and the cigar follows the same construction logic. A massive 6 x 60 Gordo, built around a maduro San Andrés wrapper, with a filler drawn from multiple countries of origin to layer sweetness, earth, and savory depth into one holiday-sized smoke. If you have ever argued that Thanksgiving dinner demands a cigar with the same scale, this is the answer.

Tasting Profile
Through the burn, the Turducken builds the layers the name promises — sweet earth and dark cocoa up front, a middle laced with herbs and roasted nuts, and a long finish that leans into black pepper and savory umami. Rich, dense, and holiday-appropriate from first light to nub.

Pairing Notes
Built for the Thanksgiving table and everything that lives on it: spiced cider, bourbon, mulled wine, or a dark holiday ale. Any of them will carry the Turducken's density without flattening its sweeter end.
Why This One Matters
Privada Cigar Club's seasonal releases are small-batch by design — rolled, boxed, and allocated with the understanding that when they're gone, they're gone until next year. The Turducken is a once-a-year release built to sit beside one specific meal, and it will not be back in time for Christmas.
Available at Tinder Box as a single or a 20-count box.
