Alec Bradely Overture Review

Received a couple of these in a trade.... This cigar is a Famous Smoke Shop Exclusive.


Alec Bradley Overture


Wrapper: Honduran Trojes Viso
Binder: Nicaraguan Jalapa & Honduran Trojes
Filler: Nicaraguan Jalapa & Honduran Trojes


Shape: Robusto
Size: 5 X 50
Draw:
Perfect
Burn:
Great
Construction:
Superb (Very oily wrapper)


What another wonderful cigar by Alec Bradley! This cigar is medium to full-bodied, and complex with a lot of spice with some cedar notes. VERY similar to the Select Cabinet Reserve - VERY.

Re: Alec Bradely Overture Review

Thanks for the review. I too have been wondering about these. May need to grab a 5 pack or something.

Kind of odd tooth to the wrapper.

Re: Alec Bradely Overture Review

Another great AB that is unique to famous (I believe) is the medalist. I got a box of 10 churchills for 30$ that are good smokes for 3$ a pop. Med to full body with great construction, draw and burn. They dont stand up to the tempus but theyre a good smoke.

mrr

I got a 5er of these shortly after they came out, so they've been resting for a bit. Planning to try one soon
