Supermarket Sushi by Privada Cigar Club is a limited-release cigar from the LCA portfolio, created as a playful and unconventional take on premium cigar blending. This 5 1/2 x 52 Robusto has been aged for two years, allowing the tobaccos to settle into a smoother, more integrated smoking experience.
The blend features an Ecuadorian Hybrid wrapper, a Dominican binder and long fillers from Peru, Costa Rica and Nicaragua. Medium-to-full in body, Supermarket Sushi starts with a distinctive mix of sweet fruit, fermented character and savory spice. Flavors of guava jelly, strawberry, oak, espresso, black pepper and tangy rice-wine-vinegar-like acidity create a profile that is unusual, layered and memorable.
Supermarket Sushi is made for adventurous cigar smokers and Privada collectors who appreciate limited blends that move beyond traditional flavor expectations. Its Robusto format provides a substantial, satisfying smoke with a balance of sweetness, wood, spice and bright tangy character.
Paul Papadopoulos –
Supermarket Sushi was a complete surprise hit for me. Within the first few puffs, a sweet, juicy guava note jumped out, with a little strawberry underneath it. And that sweetness remained consistent throughout the entire smoke, despite this not being a flavoured or infused cigar. Although it’s listed as full-bodied, it landed firmly in the medium range for me. Right now, it sits at number two on my recent outlier favourites list, just behind the Serino Elenor Rose. Supermarket Sushi is tasty, distinctive and definitely – definitely – a banger!
