"From the history of Cuban cigar making, Alec Bradley has resurrected the supremely satisfying shape that went out of style forty years ago. With its triangular shape, Trilogy is the wonder cigar and the fastest growing new cigar I have seen in years. Is it the taste, or is it the old-style Cuban triangle shape that burns so cool? When you add the double-aged fillers from Nicaragua plus your choice of the most sought-after wrappers in the world – African Cameroon, Brazilian Arapidaca Maduro, Cuban-seed Corojo grown in Nicaragua, you have the cigars of Trilogy. From his boutique factory in Danli, Honduras, Alec Bradley is establishing a reputation as a consummate cigar maker, but one who’s not afraid of the unusual. That’s why he is bringing back the triangular shape that was once a Cuban standard. Having learned of its increased surface area which allows the cigar to breathe and therefore smoke cooler, Bradley has brought back a shape of cigar that hasn’t been seen in decades to reintroduce it to a new generation of smokers. He’s done his homework well on this one, even to the point of having to re-train his torcedores to make a cigar shape they have never known. We think the results of all the trouble are worth it. To entice you to try a box of Trilogy in your favorite wrapper, we’re adding a freebie – a five-pack of Bradley’s more traditional smokes worth over $30." |
