Alec Bradley Orchant Seleccion Pointy Cigar - 1 Single

Date Added: Wednesday 01 October, 2025 by Richard

The Alec Bradley Orchant Selección was an interesting one for me. I’ve heard a lot about Alec Bradley cigars, and this particular collaboration blend felt like a good introduction. Right away, I noticed earthy notes with cedar and a bit of sweetness, almost like molasses. The construction was very good—solid draw, steady burn, and plenty of smoke output. Midway through, I picked up more cocoa and spice, which gave it a richer character. It’s medium-bodied overall, making it approachable but not boring. The flavors were balanced, though I wouldn’t say they blew me away. What I liked most was the smoothness—it never became harsh, and I was able to enjoy it at a relaxed pace. Toward the final third, the spice kicked up a little more, along with some nutty flavors, which gave it a satisfying finish. For me, this cigar felt dependable and enjoyable, though maybe not as memorable as some of the other brands I’ve tried. Still, it’s a solid choice and one I’d recommend to someone looking to explore Alec Bradley without diving straight into their stronger blends. Rating: 7/10

OMG I cannot believe these bad reviews of what I found as a surprising delight!! Perfectly smooth, allowing slightly more inhale than usual, un even burn?? No chance!! I wonder how some people are lighting their cigars... Struggle to get any draw?? No way... Cut correctly and lit correctly this is one of the best shortest smokes I have had. I am buying some more....

Currently somking the Alec Bradley Orchant Seleccion (last 3rd), this was suggested by a nice chap from the St James's St branch of C.Gars. I found this to be a very aromatic (pleasant smell). In terms of taste notes (this subjective) I found it to have an ever so slight sweetness, I tasted pepper notes and spicey notes, will need buy again (all though a bit above my budget) to taste the coffee (espresso) note. Construction very well made I did have to touch it up and relight a few times but probably due to me rather than the cigar itself. I always find myself finding difficult to strike the delicate balance of not smoking too fast as the cigar does get hot and leaving it too late for the next puff (I am getting there). The smoke was very creamy. I love the spiceiness on the lips and tip of the toungue especially when retro haling. I found all the cigars I have bought from C.Gars to have a creamy smoke to them be it a small 32 ring gauge or the bigger 40+ ring gauge cigars. The friendly chap did mention to me that the Mayfiar branch have more of the cigars I was after which was quite interesting as for some reason I thought the flagship branch would accomodate the cigars I wanted. Never the less, the selection I bought I belive would cater to my needs or be it my pallat. And if you ask nicely, the staff will throw in a free lighter. Well done C.Gars.

I'm sorry but these were just not to good I could not get a draw out of these and still have 3 left from a 4 pack.

Lots of flavour. Doesnt cope well with slightly high humidity which
