Alec Bradley Now Shipping the Most Important Fine & Rare Release: HOF / 506

Fine & Rare HOF / 506 is Dedicated to the Life of David Rubin, Father of Alec Bradley Cigars Founder, Alan Rubin

Fort Lauderdale, FL (11/13/2019)  - Alec Bradley Cigar Co. today announced that the Fine & Rare HOF / 506 is now shipping to tobacconists worldwide. According to Alec Bradley brand owner, Alan Rubin, the Fine & Rare HOF / 506 is the most important of the Fine & Rare releases since its inception. The reason being is that this year’s release pays homage to the life and legacy of Alan’s father, David Rubin, who passed away in late 2018.

Blended with 10 different aged and rare tobaccos, the New Alec Bradley Fine & Rare HOF/506 cigars
are dedicated to Alan Rubin's Father, David Rubin..

“My father brought joy to everyone around him,” Alan said. “The only way I knew how to spread joy in his honor was through a cigar that was dedicated to him.”

Alan and David worked alongside each other since 1982. The father and son team built a successful fastener business together. After selling the fastener business, Alan went on to start Alec Bradley Cigar Company, as David went into retirement.

David’s retirement did not last long, though. David joined Alan again at Alec Bradley. During this time, they both watched as Alan’s two sons, Alec and Bradley, came on board at the cigar company that bears their names. Beginning in 2017, there were three generations of Rubin’s in the Alec Bradley offices.

It's a family thing: Alan Rubin, flanked by
 his two sons, Alec and Bradley.

“Getting to work beside my grandfather, father and brother at the same time is a unique situation that most people aren’t fortunate enough to experience,” Bradley Rubin said. “My grandfather’s work ethic and enthusiastic personality is something I will never forget and keeps me motivated every day I wake up. We are an extremely blessed family.”

“My early years working at the offices are filled with memories of my grandfather and lessons he gave me,” Alec Rubin reminisced. “That has helped mold me into the man I am today. I hope to carry those lessons in my personal life and into the future of the company.”

Fine & Rare is a yearly limited edition cigar that Alec Bradley has done since 2011. The Fine & Rare has gone through many different iterations and vitolas over the years, but the concept of the cigar revolves around using ten different aged and rare tobaccos. Fine & Rare HOF / 506 is a 6 1/4 “X 54 Ring Gauge Boxed Pressed Gran Toro.
