Cigar Review: Alec Bradley MAXX Traditional Toro
Monday, June 2nd, 2008
The Alec Bradley MAXX Traditional was created, because some customers liked the MAXX but not the massive ring gauge.

Occidental Reserve Connecticut Cigar Review
Tuesday, December 4th, 2007I first tried the Occidental Reserve about a year ago, and I featured it as my Cigar of the Week about a month and a half ago, but I figured I’d share my review with you on CigarJack! Alec Bradley has really been stepping up his line of cigars, especially with his full-bodied Maxx. This time, he recruited Davidoff’s master blender Henrik Kelner to make a tasty, budget-friendly cigar.
