The Filthy Hooligan Barber Pole is more than just a festive release. The blend’s dual wrappers don’t just catch the eye—they add real flavor complexity: the candela brings grassiness and subtle sweetness, while the Habano intensifies earth, spice, and body. The Sumatra binder rounds it out with a gentle push of spice, and the Panamanian/Honduran filler core gives the blend both creamy texture and surprising structure.
This limited run cigar remains a highlight of Alec Bradley’s seasonal lineup. It smokes smooth and mellow with each puff—expect cream and leather interwoven with earthy undertones and a surprise cappuccino finish, especially through the retrohale. Whether you’re commemorating a holiday or just want a unique, conversation-starting cigar, the Filthy Hooligan Barber Pole truly lives up to its playful name and legacy.
