The American Classic was a Tampa-style cigar of the early 20th century that was affordably priced, smooth, sweet and complex. Now, Alec Bradley is reviving this brand! Alan Rubin rolled the cigar out in July. It is a mild- to medium-bodied cigar made by Nestor Plasencia’s Segovia factory in Estelí, Nicaragua with Nicaraguan filler, Nicaraguan binder and a Connecticut-seed Honduran wrapper. When asked how Rubin, at 49 years old, could possibly know what a cigar from the Teddy Roosevelt administration would have tasted like, he told Cigar Insider: “I’ve smoked some very old cigars, vintage cigars. There wasn’t a heck of a lot [of flavor] left in them, but in some respects one could imagine what they originally tasted like. I know that people didn’t analyze cigars back then like they do now. They liked them smooth and mild.” ...Read More
A very delicious medium stick that will have any seasoned smoker perplexed and astonished with how well the flavors develop into the final 3rds.
Prelight and wrapper has hints honey oats. The smoke stared off nothing crazy on a meduim black pepper and woodsy note, the finish had a pleaseant acron flavor that lingered. Smoke was cool throughout the entire stick. I got hints of pistachio musk, grassy earth, charred oak, cedar and pine well into the 2nd and final 3rds. Honey oat bread was consistent throughout. Stick had one of the best final 3rds as the flavors did a little dancing with orange citrus skins, leathery, nut meg and cinnamon sweetness. All-in-all, thought it was a A++ smoke I'll be stocking up on. Another home run for the Humidor!

Really light, like lighter than i expected. The flavor was pretty decent considering how mild they are. This is a good morning cigar to start off the day

Big is Beautiful
Very nicely done here. Thick 60 ring with a smooth sweet taste with little to no bite. Something you can puff on all afternoon long and not make you feel like you are an ashtray.

Solid
This is a solid smoke, nothing fancy, just a nice mellow cigar for those who don't want much power. The price is really nice though.

Alec Bradley American Classic Torpedo
AB American Classic Torpedo
On my top five mellow torpedos. Great hour plus smoke, nice and mild with some sloral notes and a graham cracker sweetness.

I picked up this stick at my local humidor. As you can see from the pic, it started unwrapping as soon as I cut it. I was able to get by lips over the damaged wrapper so I was able to save the stick. Above average stick. Very nice flavors and very smooth. Burn was perfect. I'll probably give this another chance.
