亞歷克·布拉德利雪茄即將推出一個全新產(chǎn)品線,，名為“安全保護(hù)”（Safe Keepings）,，這是以亞歷克·布拉德利品牌創(chuàng)始人艾倫·魯賓的煙葉混合配方手冊上的一款經(jīng)過試驗但從未商業(yè)化的一個混合配方為基礎(chǔ)卷制的。
在行業(yè)里,，復(fù)活一個雪茄制造商以前試驗過的煙葉混合配方,，重新啟用并退出新系列產(chǎn)品,，是比較常見的。這個新產(chǎn)品線全部使用尼加拉瓜煙葉卷制，茄衣,、茄套都是古巴種子,。茄芯是尼加拉瓜多個煙葉產(chǎn)地的混合煙葉，煙葉品種是克里奧羅98,，產(chǎn)地是賈拉帕,、埃斯特利、孔德加,。
STG去年收購了亞歷克·布拉德利品牌,，亞歷克、布拉德利兄弟繼續(xù)留任公司擔(dān)任品牌大使,。拉德利·魯賓（Bradley Rubin）說,，我們翻找了父親留下的煙葉混合配方手冊，研究其中的一些配方,，我們推出了這款 Safe Keepings,，向亞歷克·布拉德利雪茄品牌的配方遺產(chǎn)致敬。
新產(chǎn)品線有四個尺寸,。皇冠,，46環(huán)徑,，5.375英寸，售價10.49美元,。羅布圖,，52環(huán)徑，5英寸,，售價12.29美元,。公牛，52環(huán)徑,，6英寸,，售價13.89美元。高達(dá),，60環(huán)徑,，6英寸，售價15.19美元,。所有尺寸都是每盒24支裝,，雪茄是委托奧利瓦公司在尼加拉瓜的塔博利薩雪茄廠卷制的，預(yù)計明年6月份發(fā)貨給零售商,。
雪茄由STG的子公司鍛造者雪茄公司負(fù)責(zé)經(jīng)銷,。
Alec Bradley has gone back to the blending books. A new brand called Safe Keepings features an old, previously unused blend that was resurrected “according to recipes recorded in the Alec Bradley founder’s blend book.”
It’s not uncommon for cigarmakers to revisit older prototypes or conceptual blends and develop them into full-fledged smokes. This particular blend is composed solely of Nicaraguan tobacco, made with a Nicaraguan, Habano-seed binder and wrapper. Underneath is a filler combination of Criollo ‘98 tobacco from Jalapa, Estelí and Condega.
“When we felt the time was right, we opened the blend book and started to do a deep dive on the blend recipes inside,” explains Alec Bradley brand ambassador Bradley Rubin, whose father, Alan founded the brand. “Alec Bradley Safe Keepings honors the blend legacy of the Alec Bradley cigar brand while giving us the opportunity to move forward with resources we never would have been able to access before.”
Alec Bradley Safe Keepings comes in four sizes: Corona, measuring 5 3/8 inches by 46 ring gauge ($10.49); Robusto, at 5 by 52 ($12.29; Toro, 6 by 52 ($13.89); and a 6-by-60 Gordo ($15.19). All the cigars come in 24-count boxes and are made at Oliva’s Tabolisa factory in Nicaragua. They’re expected to ship to retailers in June.
Safe Keepings is owned by Scandinavian Tobacco Group—which acquired Alec Bradley last year—and is distributed by its subsidiary Forged Cigar Co.
