Alec Bradley Prensado

"Cigar N°1 of the 25 best cigars of 2011 by Cigar Aficionado".

Prensado means a lot to me and to the history ofAlec Bradley.

Blended with a corojo grown on property in the Trojes region of Honduras, Prensado would eventually be named Cigar Aficionado "Cigar of the Year", propellingAlec Bradley 's trajectory in cigar culture much faster than I had anticipated.
