Alec Bradley Black Market Churchill 7" × 50

• ★★★★★★★★★★4.00

  Good, but did not impress. Was included in Neptune monthly cigar club…great way to try to new sticks, especially when I don’t live near a good cigar shop.

  So much fun to smoke a Churchill now and again. This is a great product, lots of smoke, a great burn and the flavor is solid, one batch to the next. I usually get these in ones and twos so there is no way to get the same batch. Yet, the flavor and quality of construction repeat, time after time.

  This week I tried the Black Market by Alec Bradley. It had a beautiful Nicaraguan Maduro wrapper, but what called my attention to it most was the presentation. Once you take off the paper sheathe that showcases the name of the cigar, you're left with a very simple band. The contrast of the black and white against the maduro wrapper provide something nice to look at while you're smoking. As for the flavor, I got rich maduro notes of earth, chocolate, and coffee. The earth was not overbearing, though there was a lingering aftertaste of earth and leather throughout the cigar. Upon lightup and throughout the first third there was a nice bit of spice present on the tip of my tongue, though that disappeared throughout the later portions of the cigar. It was just enough to make the cigar interesting, without being overbearing. The construction was excelent, with a perfect draw and a burn that only required minor touch-ups throughout the rather long smoking time, well over an hour and a half. As far as pairings go, I would recommend something that can cut through the earthy profile of the cigar and lend some sweetness, like a coffee or even a Coke!

  Was not impressed at all with this cigar. I smoked a few of them, one with 9 months of age on it. Construction and burn weren't great. The most prominent flavor was a coffee note. I found the flavors to be muted and the overall profile to be subpar.

  Decent cigar although, for me, this blend works better in the smaller vitolas. Enjoyable roasted coffee and toasty smoke though

  Surprisingly enjoyable stick for the price. Panamanian filler finds it's way into many of my favorite cigars. Dark, woody and nutty but not too spicy or overpowering.

  Very good cigar. This is one of my go-to favorites that I always keep a couple on hand for friends.

  I have never been a real fan of Alec Bradley, but enjoyed this cigar. I burned a little unevenly, so I had to touch it up twice. There were nots of nutmeg, cocoa and chocolate. Notes were short on the palate. Paired well with coffee
