About this cigar
Alec Bradley's Black Market line has built a devoted following through uncompromising blends that prioritize flavor over restraint, and the Filthy Hooligan delivers that philosophy in spades. This 5.5 x 54 robusto pairs a dark Honduran wrapper with an all-Nicaraguan binder and filler, creating a medium-full bodied experience that opens with a hit of black pepper and cocoa, settling into notes of leather, espresso, and a subtle sweetness that emerges on the finish. The blend's construction is tight and even, with a burn that rewards a measured pace. Best enjoyed after dinner or during a contemplative evening, the Filthy Hooligan suits customers who've moved past mild Connecticut rolls and want genuine complexity without venturing into the ultra-heavy territory. The 2022 vintage represents solid consistency in the line, with that signature Black Market earthiness and grip that keeps smokers coming back. For lounge and retail buyers, this is a reliable anchor offering that appeals to the growing segment seeking approachable-but-serious smokes. The 24-count format keeps margins healthy while the brand loyalty means minimal sell-through friction.
