Alec Bradley Brings Back Filthy Ghooligan for a Spooky 2025 Return

Halloween season just got a whole lot smokier. Alec Bradley is bringing back one of their most talked-about limited editions, Filthy Ghooligan, a darkly intriguing spin on their iconic Filthy Hooligan St. Patrick’s Day release. This year, the design trades shamrocks for cobwebs, pairing a bold new look with a flavor profile perfect for cool autumn nights.

Filthy Ghooligan Blend Breakdown

Handcrafted in Honduras, Filthy Ghooligan features a striking barber pole wrapper of rich U.S. Broadleaf and bold Ecuadorian Habano over an Indonesian Besuki binder. The filler blend includes Nicaraguan tobaccos from Jalapa, Estelí, and Condega, as well as Dominican Piloto. The result is a smooth, sweet, and satisfyingly spooky profile with layers of flavor and complexity.

“Filthy Ghooligan is our way of having a little fun with the season, but under the spooky band and Halloween hype, it’s still a seriously good cigar,” said Bradley Rubin, brand ambassador for Alec Bradley. “With seven distinct tobaccos from five countries, it delivers an unforgettable smoking experience worthy of Halloween and beyond.”

    Just ordered a box of 24. I love Halloween 🎃 and Halloween-themed stuff, especially cigars from a well-renowned brand. Year to year, they've done a great job, especially with their exclusive filthy Ghooligan addition; you can't go wrong. LAST YEARS WERE Great!!

    I belive it was rated around 80- 87 score.
