Alec Bradley Cigar Company will be releasing a limited edition Alec & Bradley Gatekeeper Diamond Press cigar. Only 1,500 boxes of Gatekeeper Diamond Press are being produced . Each diamond-shaped box is painted in black and gold and will hold sixteen cigars measuring 6 1/4 x 54.
In a press release, second generation cigar maker Bradley Rubin stated: “My father Alan, brother Alec and I have been asked more times than I can count about making a Gatekeeper Diamond. We’re humbled to have the opportunity to bring a cigar to market that we already know will be highly coveted.”
This new cigar’s unique diamond press cigar is based on the award-winning Gatekeeper blend that was used to construct the four traditional vitolas that make up the regular-production line. For the new Diamond press, the percentages of tobaccos in the blend have been slightly tweaked for optimal smoking experience and to account for the unique compression required to make Alec Bradley’s signature diamond shape. Gatekeeper has a dark cocoa-colored Ecuadorian Habano wrapper, a Nicaraguan binder and premium filler tobaccos grown in Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic.
Only 1,500 boxes of Gatekeeper Diamond Press are being produced for global distribution. Each cigar has a suggested retail price of $12.75 before any applicable taxes. The Alec & Bradley Gatekeeper Diamond Press is expected to appear on store shelves in late April. Gatekeeper Diamond Press is being produced at Tobacos de Oriente in Danlí, Honduras.
