Product Info
Alec Bradley Black Market Robusto - Single Cigar
"Every month, for over a year, I had been working on blends with a special tobacco from Panama. The unique flavor of Panamanian tobacco, that I so thoroughly enjoy, somehow had to be shared with the world. Creating 18 different Panamanian blends, I smoked the third one in line and knew this was Black Market! The mystery of Panamanian tobacco and the crate like box in which Black Market is displayed illustrates this cigar’s journey."
Alan Rubin
Product Brand
In 1996, Alan Rubin used part of his proceeds from the sale of the family hardware business to launch a new cigar company - Alec Bradley named after Rubin's two sons, Alec and Bradley. After failed initial schemes at producing cigars targeted at golf courses and flavoured after dinner cigars, Rubin managed to carve out a tenuous niche selling budget priced cigars to tobacconists.
Many new innovative cigars were launched over the years until Alec Bradley achieved its major breakthrough with the introduction of a new full bodied line called 'Tempus' which was rated 94/100 by the Cigar Aficionado Magazine.
Global success was achieved after the Alec Bradley Prensado Churchill was rated 2011 No1 Cigar by the Cigar Aficionado Magazine, followed by winning the Best Brand Honduras and Best Cigar Honduras by the Cigar Journal in 2012, 2013 and 2014. Alec Bradley are now available in over 40 countries worldwide.
Customer Reviews
Having been a Montecristo smoker for the last few years I have been trying a few different cigars based upon the excellent recommendations of the store staff (Glasgow) and internet reviews. I tried this robusto and whilst enjoying the excellent aroma it was truly a war of wills - this cigar was so tightly wrapped it was almost impossible to draw. Had to work very hard to 'smoke' this and it pretty much spoiled its enjoyment. To their credit, staff did state that they had found this tightly wrapped but I still persevered for the experience. Perhaps others in the AB range would be better but it's put me off.
