Cigars Alec Bradley

In 1996, Ralph knew almost nothing about cigars except where to cut them and where to light them! Nevertheless, it was his greatest passion and he decided to dedicate his life to it by founding his own company: Alec Bradley Cigar Company.

With the ups and downs of the young company, its goal has always been to make cigars that aficionados enjoy. No "arrogant" words such as "We make the best cigars",...etc. On the contrary, a real openness to the terroirs and a motivation to create balanced blends with different personalities pushes him to "crossbreed" the cigars. Thus, we can find in their composition tobaccos of different origins such as Honduras mainly, but also tobaccos of Dominican Republic and of course Nicaragua.

In 1998, the cigar boom in the United States was coming to an end and many companies were struggling to survive. Alec and Ralph decided to join forces and created their first cigar together: "The Occidental Reserve". They got their answer and realized that their combined skills would allow them to achieve a quality that would offer them a future: Making cigars that they themselves and other cigar aficionados would enjoy.

Here is a modest and open approach! The result? Cigars that are interesting to say the least. Nuanced personalities and blends ranging from simple and light to aromatic and full-bodied. All you have to do is try.
