Alec Bradley Tempus Nicaragua Magnus

Tempus is the Latin word for time, and it’s appropriate that this brand is dubbed Alec Bradley Tempus Nicaragua. Introduced in 2015 as a follow-up to the original Tempus line, the Nicaragua is a bit unusual of a blend for Alec Bradley. It is a Nicaraguan puro while most other blends in their line feature tobaccos from many different countries. It took some time (Tempus) to get a single nation blend right, and it features 3 ligero and viso fillers from different regions, a double binder, and a beautiful wrapper grown in Jalapa, Nicaragua. Tasting notes include flavors of earth, cream, and cedar along with hints of cocoa, nuts, and pepper. The Alec Bradley Tempus Nicaragua is a cigar that is truly worth your time.

Alec Bradley is a pretty widely recognized name in the world of premium cigars. Most people assume it’s the name of the company’s founder, but that’s Alan Rubin, who named the brand after his sons Alec & Bradley. Little did he know when starting the company that his sons would join him and become second generation cigar makers. From humble beginnings, Alan grew Alec Bradley into a powerhouse of a brand. While he started by selling mild to medium cigars in bundles and an unusual triangular pressed cigar called Trilogy, it was his Tempus line that changed everything. It was his first premium offering and changed the perception of the Alec Bradley name in the marketplace.
