“We had the full support from our father and Ralph Montero (VP of Alec Bradley) when it came to the brand, the blend and the design,” added Bradley Rubin. “The reason Alec and I named our first project ‘Blind Faith’ is because it is our first attempt at launching our own cigar line. From the company, to tobacconists, to cigar enthusiasts-people need to have blind faith that, having grown up around the cigar industry, we can make a our own cigar line.”
Blind Faith features a silky smooth wrapper from Alec Bradley’s proprietary farm in Trojes, Honduras. It has three different filler tobaccos from Estelí and a binder from Honduras and Nicaragua. Alec and Bradley Rubin focused on taking bolder tobaccos and blending them for strength with a balance of flavor and a balance, a slightly different approach than traditional Alec Bradley cigars which and blended with flavor preceding strength. Blind Faith is rolled at Raices Cubanas Factory in Danlí, Honduras. While production is currently limited to a handful of rollers, that is expected to grow and change in the near future. Blind Faith will come in 20-count boxes and is available in three vitolas: Robusto (5 x 52), Toro (6 x 52), and Gordo (6 x 60). The MSRP will range $8.95 and $10.95 per stick, before taxes.
Alec and Bradley Rubin are currently working on what will be their second release for Alec & Bradley, with a goal to release it in early 2019.
