AB cigars are well-known for earning high ratings from both seasoned and novice cigar enthusiasts. They're made in the Placencia factory in Nicaragua, and they offer rich flavor, consistency, and good value. The Prensado cigar has a special place in the Alec Bradley story because it was created to honor the traditional Cuban techniques of cigar making, including rolling the filler "entuba-do," triple capping the head, and box pressing the cigar. The blend includes corojo tobacco grown on their estate in the Trojes region of Honduras, and it was so good that it was named "Cigar of the Year" by Cigar Aficionado. This helped to boost Alec Bradley's reputation in the cigar culture faster than they had expected.
