# Black Market
## The Story About Alec Bradley Black Market
Black Market began with a shipment of Panamanian tobacco, a rare leaf with a flavor so intriguing we couldn’t let it go. For more than a year, we built and smoked our way through 18 test blends, chasing the profile that would unlock the tobacco’s full potential. Each version got us closer, until one finally revealed the depth, spice and quiet sweetness we’d been searching for.
