Alec Bradley Cigar Co. Introducing ‘Taste of the World Chunk’ Sampler Ahead of Father’s Day 2022

2000 Limited Edition Samplers to Feature Exclusive Cigars
Fort Lauderdale, FL (May 5, 2022)

Alec Bradley Cigar Company, a multigenerational family owned and operated business, today announced the upcoming release of 2000 Limited Edition ‘Taste of the World Chunk’ samplers for Father’s Day 2022. Presented in collectable 8-count boxes, finished in a luxurious high-gloss blue lacquer, the collection unites 2 Chunk sized cigars each of the sampler exclusive ‘Gatekeeper’ and ‘Kintsugi’ with the Canadian exclusive ‘Black Market,’ and global release ‘Magic Toast.’ All Alec Bradley Chunk cigars measure in at a short and stout 4 1/4″ X 60 ring gauge.

After receiving #22 “Cigar of the Year” 2021 by The Blaze Report for the Alec & Bradley ‘Gatekeeper’, and ‘Tempus Maduro’ 2020 second generation cigarmakers Alec and Bradley Rubin secretly created the Chunk sampler as a gift for their father, Alec Bradley founder, Alan Rubin. Pairing two lines from their portfolio with two lines from their father’s portfolio, the brothers expanded upon the Chunk sampler concept, creating a gift item to be shared amongst adult children, their fathers and father figures. 

“The Chunk’s size and shape arguably make it the ‘dad bod’ of cigars,” second generation cigarmakers, Alec and Bradley Rubin noted in a joint statement. “The sampler was a huge hit with our dad, so we decided to produce them for other families to experience the same joy we did.”

Alan Rubin founded Alec Bradley Cigar Co. in 1996, naming the company after his two children. Throughout the years, he’s celebrated a multitude of achievements, including a coveted Cigar Aficionado #1 “Cigar of the Year” award for the Prensado Churchill. However, Alan’s greatest success as a business owner and dad came when his sons decided to join him on his journey in the premium cigar business.

“As a dad, I couldn’t be prouder of what Alec and Bradley have achieved,” Alan said. “I was elated when they presented me with the Chunk sampler, and I’m honored that we can share these eight special cigar moments with other families.“

Alec Bradley is pre-selling the 2000 ‘Taste of the World Chunk’ samplers to appointed tobacconists now, for delivery toward the end of May. MSRP has been set to $74.95 per sampler. ‘Taste of the World Chunk’ samplers are exclusive to the US market. No blend or factory changes have been made in the production of the Chunk iterations enclosed in the samplers.
