Ha! That seems to be my growing opinion of AB, but I haven't had the family blend or tempus maduro yet.

Honestly, I have no clue how it got a 94 rating on CA...must be the advertising. Nothing but leather and wood...and it kept going out every 10 seconds.

I disagree entirely with all these statements. I've had probably 10-15 of the Family Blends in various sizes and I've though each one was fantastic. IMO one of the best newer cigars on the market.

I didn't think the Family Blend was bad, but I didn't think it was that good either. Just didn't do anything for me. Alec Bradley has been hit or miss for me though, I enjoy some but not others.

Same here...I had my first one Friday night...(torp). I thought it was a pretty good smoke. It didn't taste like the tempus, totally different imo. I loved that taste of it though and will be def getting more.

Not a favorite----but just below. Have to go with Puro and Kreig on this one.

The FB was Ok with me, nothing that will put it in my top 10 but decent.

I think the Family Blend is great, especially at the price point. I think the prices are one of Alec Bradley's strong points, frankly. There are quite a few Alec Bradley cigars I enjoy quite a bit.

I don't think the price is worth it alone considering for $3/each I can get LHCOF, Diesel, MOW, etc. etc.

PuroFreak · January 2011

To me the price is perfect, because I think the Family Blend is much better than the LHCOF, Diesel, MOW, or any of the others along those lines... But when it comes right down to it, I try not to let price determine how much I like a cigar. I love the Opus and Anejo which are a little higher, but I also love the Ambos Mundos which are in the $5 range...

I totally agree on the tempus too. Only had one of them, but man, it was a tasty cigar.
