“With Medalist we are looking to remind people of our company’s past,” said Alan Rubin, Alec Bradley’s founder, in a press release. “We are also asking milder cigar smokers who have shied away from us to give us a chance. Medalist is smooth and complex with a light natural sweetness. Medalist hits a presentation, flavor and price point that is attractive to many smokers that we haven’t spoken to in a while.”
Medalist is being produced at Tabacos de Oriente in Honduras.
