Description
Alec Bradley Lineage is the first edition available in a 70 ring gauge from this cigar maker. To begin with, Alec Bradley is a family company launching in 1996 by Alan Rubin. Today, they manufacture some of the world’s highest critically acclaimed premium cigars. Producing over 10 million cigars a year places them as one of world’s top cigar makers. The company was recently purchased by Altadis USA to become part of their Forged Cigar unit.
With attention to detail, Lineage contains a blend that has a Honduran wrapper from the Trojes region, a Nicaraguan binder, and a filler blend of Honduran and Nicaraguan tobaccos. It’s important to note that the famed Raices Cubanas in Honduras produces this excellent cigar. Scoring a respectable 90 with Cigar Aficionado, Lineage is another winner for Alec Bradley. Their review is short and sweet. ” Topped with a pigtail cap, this robusto smokes evenly with a clean burn and full draw. It’s a toasty, creamy smoke with some salty elements, a bit of earth and a toffee sweetness.”
So if you’re a fan of big fat ring gauges or not…….Lineage yields a smooth and very enjoyable smoking experience for sure! Any size you choose is a top pick.
To sum up, Alec Bradley Lineage is available in 5 popular sizes of 24 count boxes

I’m not a fan of big fat cigars so when I was handed a 665 size to try I was really taken back. While I loved the Old School pigtailed cap and it’s beautiful construction I was intimidated. Even though I didn’t have the time to finish this behemoth, I marveled at the perfect draw and the huge volume of aromatic smoke it gave off. I was also surprised with the smooth, creamy, medium bodied friendly taste.
Given its 90 ratings, I had to try a more “normal” sized one again. Bingo! Just as I thought, it was great. If you’re a fan of big ring cigars, the 665 and 770 will reward you with a terrific experience unlike other giant entries. If you’re like me, pick a five pack of your favorite size and enjoy.
