  Alec & Bradley Kintsugi

  Kintsugi is the centuries old Japanese art form of repairing broken pottery using gold lacquer as a bonding agent. Therefore, enhancing the original pottery’s beauty. For Alec and Bradley Rubin, cigars and cigar culture act like a bond that helps bring diverse groups of people together. They used this concept as a guiding principle when they developed the Alec & Bradley Kintsugi. The cigars are handmade at the Raices Cubanas factory in Honduras. Starting with a filler and a double binder composed of Honduran and Nicaraguan leaves, the Kintsugi is draped with an oily, tasty Habano maduro wrapper from Honduras. Once joined together this delightful blend creates a balanced and flavorful cigar that will appeal to both novice and veteran aficionados.
