Founder Alan Rubin had one mission in mind when he created Alec Bradley Cigars: give the cigar smoker an unforgettable experience. And since 1996, Alec Bradley has been doing just that. The release of their first cigar Occidental Reserve put Alec Bradley on the map, but it was the introduction of the Alec Bradley Tempus that secured their position as a force in the cigar industry. Alan Rubin’s obsession with quality and tradition have produced a host of highly rated cigar lines including Alec Bradley Select Cabinet Reserve (SCR), Alec Bradley Family Blend, and Alec Bradley Maxx culminating with the Alec Bradley Prensado, winner of Cigar Aficionado’s 2011 Cigar of the Year with a rating of 96.
