Fort Lauderdale, FL — Alec Bradley Cigar Company’s Double Broadleaf–Experimental Series, which debuted to great fanfare at the 2022 Premium Cigar Association (PCA) Trade Show, has begun arriving at tobacconists. This is the third installment in the company’s Experimental Series. It’s also the first full cigar line from Alec Bradley since 2020’s Project 40 Maduro.
The Alec Bradley Double Broadleaf cigar blend was created as a part of the Experimental Series to go beyond the flavor boundaries of the company’s current offerings. Built upon Alec Bradley’s proprietary, Honduran-grown, Connecticut seed Broadleaf tobacco wrapper and binder leaves, an additional binder leaf from Nicaragua frames filler tobaccos from Honduras and Nicaragua. The result is a well-balanced and smooth, yet bold smoking experience.
“We grew Broadleaf tobacco in Honduras from heritage Connecticut seeds, combined it with other premium tobaccos from Nicaragua and Honduras,” said second generation cigar maker, Bradley Rubin. “We’re now shipping a flavorful cigar that delivers the extra horsepower our brand advocates have been asking us for.”
Produced in Danli, Honduras at Tobacos De Oriente, the Alec Bradley Double Broadleaf–Experimental Series is offered in 5 sizes and presented in luxurious green and natural wood, dual-tone, 24-count boxes. Prices below are U.S. MSRP. International prices may vary.
