Alec Bradley Tempus Maduro Boxes
90-rated - Up to an EXTRA $115 OFF + UPGRADE + FREE SHIPPING!

The time for saving is now! This weekend, we’re taking a tasty deep dive into the 90-rated Alec Bradley Tempus Maduro with up to an EXTRA $115 boxes! I’m about to throw a little more gasoline on this fire with the chance to score a 5-pack of the 96-rated Alec Bradley Prensado ($62 value) for just $10 more + FREE SHIPPING! Rich maduros at box busting prices as low as $49.99! You won’t want to miss out on this exceptionally beefy blend!

Alan Rubin, the founder of Alec Bradley, views the Tempus blend as one of his best works. Tempus Maduro is the darker and richer sister to the top-rated original, which uses the same tasty cocktail of long-fillers from Honduras and Nicaragua and are bound in a potent Honduran binder leaf. The real needle mover is the luscious San Andres maduro wrapper, which is full of darker notes like cocoa, coffee, and a slightly natural sweet finish. Well deserving of its 90-rating , you won’t want to sleep on this top-class blend from Alec Bradley!

Don’t sleep on this one, or you’ll be bummed you missed out. Usually Alec Bradley boxes can go for a premium, but these beauties are starting at a mere $3.60 apiece + FREE SHIPPING!

$22 for a new cigar with undisclosed tobacco and unnamed Factory?  Is this another Caldwell enterprise?

It's making its debut this weekend at Casa Aficionado in Delaware, Ohio, so maybe GolfinDave can check it out for us.

"The cigar is a 6 x 54 sublime vitola that uses an undisclosed blend of tobaccos from multiple growing regions, with production handled by an undisclosed factory. It is priced at $22 per cigar and $220 per box, with production limited to 1,420 boxes of 10 cigars, a total run of 14,200 cigars."

Today is Saturday, July 26, the 207th day of 2025,
with 158 to follow.

The moon is waxing. Morning stars are Jupiter, Neptune, Saturn, Uranus and Venus. Evening stars are Mars, Mercury, Neptune and Saturn.



On this date in history:


In 1775, Congress establishes the U.S. postal system.

In 1847, Liberia became a republic and Africa's first sovereign, Black-ruled democratic nation.

In 1908, the FBI was born as the Bureau of Investigation, or BOI, when a group of newly hired investigators reported to the Justice Department. The special unit officially became the FBI in 1935.

In 1931, swarms of grasshoppers decimated millions of acres of crops throughout the southwestern United States.

In 1941, Army Gen. Douglas MacArthur was named commander of U.S. forces in the Philippines.

In 1945, voters ousted Winston Churchill as prime minister of Britain after five years in the position. His Conservative Party would be voted back into power in 1951, and he would regain his position.

In 1948, President Harry S. Truman ordered desegregation of the U.S. military.

In 1956, Egypt created a crisis by nationalizing the British- and French-owned Suez Canal.

In 1984, serial killer Ed Gein, the inspiration for the movie Psycho, dies of cancer.

In 1990, President George H.W. Bush signed the Americans with Disabilities Act, prohibiting discrimination against the disabled in employment, public accommodations, in telecommunications, and on public or private buses or trains.

In 1992, under pressure, Iraq agreed to allow U.N. inspectors to look for documentation on weapons of mass destruction.

In 2005, the Discovery lifted off from Cape Canaveral in the first shuttle launch since the 2003 Columbia tragedy.

In 2010, the founder of WikiLeaks, Julian Assange, said the site decided to post more than 75,000 secret U.S. Afghan war documents on the Internet to give a more complete picture of the conflict. The White House said the deed had "a potential to be very harmful."

In 2018, Facebook had the worst single day of trading in history, losing some $110 billion.

In 2023, soldiers in Niger said they removed President Mohamed Bazoum from office in a coup of the democratically elected government. Brigade Gen. Abdourahamane Tchiani put himself in charge of the military junta.

In 2024, Canadian diva Celine Dion delivered a stirring rendition of Edith Piaf's French anthem, "Hymn to Love," at the Eiffel Tower, providing a show-stopping finale to the Opening Ceremony of the Paris 2024 Olympics. It was her first public singing appearance since 2020 due to her battle with a rare neurological disease.
