Alec Bradley Chunk Maduro (3XL) - Box of 20

Between the XL's 60 ring gauge and the 4XL's imposing 80 sits the 3XL, the balanced middle option in Alec Bradley's Chunk Maduro lineup. At 4 x 66, it delivers noticeably more presence and a longer session than the XL without stepping into the extreme territory the 4XL occupies.

The blend stays identical across every Chunk Maduro size: a dark, oily Mexican Maduro wrapper wrapped around a Honduran binder, with Nicaraguan and Dominican Republic filler tobacco including Piloto Cubano, the storied variety whose seeds trace back to tobacco smuggled out of Cuba's Vuelta Abajo region in 1962. Handcrafted at STG's HATSA factory in Danlí, Honduras, the 3XL's 66 ring gauge gives the filler proportionally more room per draw than the XL's 60, cooling the burn slightly and extending the smoking time while still keeping the cigar practical enough to ship in a standard 20-count box, unlike the bulkier 4XL's 18-count packaging.

This is the size for smokers who want more of the Chunk Maduro experience than the XL delivers, more smoke, more time, more of that sustained flavor and body balance the entire line is built around, without committing to the 4XL's most extreme ring gauge. Construction quality holds steady at this size as well, a seamless cap, minimal veins, and a draw that manages the wider ring gauge cleanly, delivering satisfying volumes of smoke without becoming difficult to draw through.

Flavor progression:

1. Opening: dark, rich notes from the Mexican Maduro wrapper build steadily, the wider ring gauge giving the filler more presence from the first draw
2. Mid-smoke: the Piloto Cubano filler's complexity comes forward fully, flavor and body reaching their peak balance and holding across a longer arc than the XL
3. Close: the sweet spot sustains through the final stretch, the profile staying rich and consistent to the last draws
