Alec Bradley Gatekeeper represents a major milestone in the evolution of the Rubin family’s cigar legacy. After years of learning the business under their father, Alan Rubin, brothers Alec and Bradley set out to create a blend that would stand on its own and showcase their developing style. To bring that vision to life, they teamed up with none other than Ernesto Perez-Carrillo—one of the most respected master blenders in the world. The collaboration blended the Rubins’ fresh perspective with Perez-Carrillo’s decades of expertise, resulting in a cigar that quickly earned widespread praise.
Gatekeeper debuted in 2019 and immediately captured attention for its refined balance, modern flavor profile, and striking presentation. Built around an Ecuadorian Habano wrapper with Dominican and Nicaraguan fillers, the blend delivered a mix of richness and nuance that helped define the brothers' emerging identity as serious cigar makers. The cigar’s early success was cemented when it earned a Top 25 rating from major publications, signaling that Alec and Bradley were no longer just names on a family business—they were legitimate creators with their own voice. Today, Gatekeeper stands as one of the most meaningful releases in the Alec Bradley portfolio, marking the moment the next generation stepped confidently into the spotlight.
