New Cigars From Alec Bradley For 2025
While cigar smoking is often viewed as a social activity, it can also be a solo, introspective affair. Such moments are the idea behind the latest line from Alec Bradley, a brand called Do Not Disturb. In addition to that, Alec Bradley’s Black Market will be getting two new sizes, one large and one small.
“Do Not Disturb is for anyone looking to take a break and enjoy a moment of peace,” says Bradley Rubin, brand ambassador for Alec Bradley. “It’s an open invitation to find your space, whether that’s a lounge, the porch or the garage and just unwind with a cigar that feels familiar and easy to enjoy. We’re excited to offer something that pairs perfectly with those well-earned moments.”
Produced in the Dominican Republic at the Tabacalera La Isla factory, Do Not Disturb consists of Connecticut-seed wrapper grown in Ecuador, a Dominican Criollo binder and a mix of Dominican and Mexican filler. According to the company, the cigars are intended to be medium in body.
Do Not Disturb comes in three sizes: Robusto, measuring 5 inches by 50 ring gauge ($8.39); Toro, 6 by 52 ($8.99); and Gordo, 6 by 60 ($9.49). All sizes ship in dark blue boxes of 16.
Alec Bradley’s Black Market line is being expanded with two new sizes called Smalls and Toro Tube, which are both intended for the smoker on the go. The new additions bring Black Market up to seven sizes (the Punk is discontinued and there is also a promotional size called Chunk).
The mixed-filler Smalls is a petit corona measuring 4 3/16 by 36 and is sold in handy six-count tins. It has a suggested retail price of $22.99 per tin. The other new size is the long-filler 6 1/2-by-52 Toro Tube ($12.49), which features a glossy metal tubo and comes in a 10-count box. While Black Market already has a slightly smaller size called Toro, it is not being replaced by the new Tubo.
The Black Market blend is made up of a Nicaraguan wrapper, Ecuador Sumatra binder and Honduran and Panamanian fillers. The Toro Tube is produced by the Plasencia family at Tabacos de Oriente S.A. in Honduras, like the majority of the line, but the Smalls is made at the Agio Caribbean Tobacco Company Ltd. factory in San Pedro de Macorís, Dominican Republic.
Alec Bradley is owned by Scandinavian Tobacco Group and distributed by its subsidiary Forged Cigar Co.
The new sizes of Black Market are expected to start shipping May 1, while Do No Disturb is scheduled to ship June 1.
