The Alec Bradley Cigar Company was founded in 1996 by Alan Rubin. The name Alec Bradley is synonymous with quality, having received excellent reviews from critics and attracting a steadily growing customer base. In 1996, Alan Rubin took his life in a new direction. He sold his import business and decided to devote himself entirely to his passion: cigars. He strove to bring this handcrafted tradition to market, paying attention to even the smallest details. To this end, he brought in Ralph Montero, who currently serves as Executive Vice-President. In collaboration with Henke Kelner, Alec Bradley’s first long-filler, the Occidental Reserve, was created. Trilogy, a triangular-pressed cigar, and Maxx followed. The cigar-smoking community was waiting for something special from Alec Bradley. These expectations were met with the launch of the ‘Tempus’, which elevated Alec Bradley Cigars to the ranks of the major players in the cigar business. The result was a phenomenal cigar that fully satisfied the quality demands of aficionados regarding Alec Bradley.
The range has since expanded to include many different cigar lines. Among the most popular Alec Bradley cigars are the Alec Bradley Black Market, Alec Bradley Connecticut and Alec Bradley Sanctum. Since Intertabac 2018, the Alec Bradley Magic Toast and the cigars from the two sons, Alec & Bradley Blind Faith, have also been available.
