Sanctum

Alec Bradley teased the new Sanctum in 2014 at the IPCPR show, not to release the cigar until nearly a full year later. This attractive smoke boasts an affordable price range and a diverse, multinational blend—offering complex flavors you may be hard-pressed to find in a cigar of similar price.

The Costa Rican binder has great body, while the Colombian tobaccos add to the great aroma. Combine these tobaccos with those from select regions in Honduras and Nicaragua, and you’ll savor a four country blend that is as complex as it is unique.
