About Alec Bradley Lineage

Lineage, introduced in 2014, is built around a Honduran wrapper with a Nicaraguan binder and Honduran/Nicaraguan fillers, settling into the medium strength lane. The blend’s structural core is cedar and earth, with cocoa or nut notes and occasional light citrus or licorice lifts depending on vitola. Many releases carry a traditional pigtail cap and are offered in sizes from standard to very large ring gauges.

Flavor Profile

Earth, cedar, light citrus lift, subtle pepper

Lineage is a straightforward, medium‑bodied Honduran composition that favors Trojes wrapper character for a dry, structured wood and earth foundation. A Nicaraguan binder and a Honduran/Nicaraguan filler mix add backbone and a subtle brightness—a touch of citrus—that keeps the profile from becoming one‑dimensional. Expect clean cedar and earthy tones up front, intermittent pepper or leather to keep the smoke honest, and a medium, slightly creamy mouthfeel with steady, unflashy transitions. Rolled at Raíces Cubanas in Danlí, the line leans toward balance and steadiness rather than novelty.
