Hey guys,

Do you know when this cigar will be released? I loved this cigar for the golf course; sweet, mild-medium, and full flavored, oh and cheap too.

Dont know how true this is or not but

"Alec Bradley has a special treat coming out around Memorial Day that should fall into the hands of those looking to enjoy a quality stogie on that extended weekend. The patriotic line is called the American Classic Blend, and the timing of its release could not be more appropriate."

I "Liked" them on Facebook and haven't heard or seen anything lately.

The best Alec Bradley cigar I have smoked so far. I plan on getting a box when they come out. I would look out for them after IPCPR.

Liked 'em also. Hadn't heard a price point yet.
Pretty sure George Sosa said they'd be in stores by end of this month.

Here is it

DANIA, FL – May 5, 2011- Perhaps a parade would have been more in order. Alec Bradley Cigars is pleased to announce the release of their newest premium cigar series, Alec Bradley American Classic Blend. Following the lead of the company’s “outstanding”-rated Tempus, Family Blend, and Prensado cigars, this patriotic-inspired selection offers a mild to medium-bodied blend of specially-aged Nicaraguan Estelí and Condega long-fillers, Nicaraguan Jalapa binder, and a Honduran-grown Connecticut Shade wrapper. Scheduled to launch in conjunction with Memorial Day, the Alec Bradley American Classic Blend isn’t your father’s cigar – it’s your fathers-father’s cigar; the kind of old-school feel, Tampa-style cigars that were smooth, sweet and complex. The cigars will retail from $3.95 to $5.50 (higher tobacco taxation states excluded), and are expected to arrive at tobacconists just in time for Memorial Day weekend.

“We wanted to make an affordably-priced handmade cigar like the cigars that were popular in America during the early part of the 20th century,” said Alec Bradley Cigars President, Alan Rubin. “Even with the SCHIP tax, the customer is getting a high-quality smoke at a very reasonable price.”

The American Classic Blend is presented in boxes of 20 cigars in the following six sizes:

Corona: (42 x 5 1/2)
Robusto: (50 x 5)
Toro: (50 x 6)
Churchill: (48 x 7)
Torpedo: (52 x 6 1/8)
Gordo: (60 x 6)

I saw that Tampa Humidor just picked these up. Also, if you order before the end of the day today, there is an extra 15% off. I had to get some more of the toro size; hopefully it is as good as the sample release.

I was one of the 100 that signed up for a trial, but I never got it. Yesterday I got a Face Book PM asking for my address, so hopefully it's on the way...

Just bought a box from Tampa Humidor yesterday in the same vitola that was sent out for the sampler. Fantastic cigar for under $5.
