Fine &amp; Rare is the result of Alec Bradley Cigar Co. founder, Alan Rubin\u2019s goal of creating a cigar using an astonishing 10 different aged and selected tobaccos. Making a cigar with that much tobacco is so difficult that only a singular pair (1 Roller and 1 Buncher) are entrusted to the task. The Fine &amp; Rare project was destined to be a limited edition.<\/p>\n<p>Since 2011, Fine &amp; Rare has seen five different iterations with 5 different blends respectively- all yearly, limited edition boxes of ten. Some of the iterations saw more than one release. For each Fine &amp; Rare batch, Alan had the factory tuck away a part of production deep into the aging room, anticipating the day Alec Bradley would launch a commemorative set.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m really excited to be able to present the Fine &amp; Rare 10 Year Anniversary set,\u201d Alan said. \u201cI went through all of the different iterations and chose the vintages that had the best overall flavor development and performance. Fine &amp; Rare is an ever-evolving concept and leaving batches to age and re-release adds another dimension to the complexity of the project.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Each Fine &amp; Rare Commemorative Ltd.
