Forged Cigar Company has announced the 2026 edition of the Alec Bradley Black Market Filthy Ghooligan. This is the third year the Filthy Ghooligan has been released.
Alec Bradley Filthy Ghooligan is a seasonal Halloween release. The line was inspired by the Alec Bradley Filthy Hooligan, a seasonal release for over a decade that coincides with the St. Patrick’s Day Season. Initially introduced as a Candela, the Filthy Hooligan became a barber-pole offering that included candela. Filthy Ghooligan is a barber-pole, but there isn’t a candela wrapper.
The barber-pole wrappers of the Filthy Ghooligan are composed of Ecuadorian Habano and US Broadleaf tobacco. The remainder of the blend includes an Indonesian Besuki binder and Nicaraguan Jalapa, Estelí, and Condega fillers, alongside Dominican Piloto. STG has not disclosed the factory that produces the cigar, but it has stated that the cigar originates from Honduras.
Filthy Ghooligan is available in one size: a 6 x 50 Toro, priced at $14.49 SRP per cigar (the same as 2025’s pricing). A total of 1,950 24-count boxes are being released for 2026.
“Filthy Ghooligan has become one of the many beloved Alec Bradley traditions. Not only is it innovative and eye-catching, but it’s a cigar of excellent quality and construction. Consider this a treat — instead of a trick — for your Halloween festivities,” said Bradley Rubin, Brand Ambassador for Alec Bradley, in a press release
