Awarded Cigar of the Year in 2011 with a rating of 96 , the Prensado Double T still mesmerizes aficionados globally. Despite the challenges of tobacco farming, the Prensado's blend of Nicaraguan and Honduran filler, along with the exquisite Trojes-grown Corojo wrapper, consistently provides the delightful flavours.
Prensado means a lot to me and the Alec Bradley story. Rolled at Raices Cubanas (‘Cuban Roots’) factory, the Prensado was first created to pay homage to the Cuban traditions of cigar making rolling the filler ‘entuba-do,’ triple capping the head and box pressing the finished cigar. Blended with proprietary estate grown corojo from the Trojes region of Honduras, Prensado would eventually be named Cigar Aficionado “Cigar of the Year,” propelling Alec Bradley’s trajectory into cigar culture much quicker than I anticipated.
