Alec Bradley

Chunk Shade

The Chunk size is a signature series of vitolas unique to the Alec Bradley line. These short, pudgy-looking cigars have large ring gauges and notoriously full flavor but in a truncated body size, almost like a desert at your favorite restaurant contained in a single shot glass. Now, the Chunk is being produced in a more mellow-medium bodied profile with a shade grown wrapper. The blend consists of Connecticut-seed wrapper grown in Honduras atop Connecticut Broadleaf binder and filler tobacco from Nicaragua, Honduras and the Dominican Republic. According to Bradley Rubin, Alec Bradley’s brand ambassador, the Chunk “is a fun and approachable cigar that rounds out the Chunk series in a big way. Fans love the short, wide format of Maduro, and with Shade we’re giving them the same bold shape but with a smooth, mellow profile that’s perfect for relaxing any time.” For those who prefer a more tempered smoke without sacrificing character, the Alec Bradley Chunk Shade is an inspired choice. This short, stout vitola delivers a smooth, profile with a notably full output of smoke. Indeed, the appeal of a Chunk size is obvious. High end smokers who do not want to turn toward cigarillos want something of the utmost quality even on the shortest timeframe. This cigar offers a softer, more relaxed profile while retaining the confident personality that defines the Chunk series, offering rich notes of sweet cream, fresh baked bread, wood and honey, making one feel like they’re right in the middle of a classic 6x60 Gordo after just the first two puffs. The size also keeps the price down, allowing smokers to take in the Chunk Shade whenever the mood strikes. It’s got a big personality in a little package, offering a full smoke session for a laid-back experience. Go on, get a little chunky, shade-style.
