Gurkha Classic Havana

Description

A Classic Blend!

After years of searching years for the perfect concoction of wrapper, binder, and filler, the guys at Gurkha have uncovered a Cuban-esque blend for the record books. They took their time with this one, meticulously tweaking the blend over twenty times until they knew they had achieved the perfect Havana flavor profile. Introducing Gurkha Classic Havana Blend, a nod to those revered blends of Cuba’s past. 

Hailing from the fertile soils of Nicaragua that prove time and time again to encompass many of the same qualities as the revered Cubans of the past, Classic Havana Blend delivers in spades. Rocking a milk chocolaty Mexican San Andres wrapper, this gem begs to be lit at first sight. Medium-bodied and brimming with flavor, this box-pressed beauty permeates with notes of spice, earth, and nuts. If you yearn for that cherished Cuban taste or are looking to experience something darn close for the first time, Gurkha Classic Havana Blend is the choice cut for you.

The flavor was a delight for someone who does not smoke regularly. It drew smoothly, maintaining a nice even burn, neither too loose nor too tight. The smoke itself was pleasant, offering a rich and fulfilling experience.

This was not a bad tasting cigar, got a little bitter near the end. The biggest issue was that the wraping (Leaf) started unraveling. This cigar came out of my humidor and has been the only cigar that has done this in sometime. I have a few more that I hope will not result in the same issue.

Has distinct flavors of cavendish pipe tobacco, so it's super unique and will appeal to those who enjoy a robust cigar as well as pipe.

You’ll like this classic taste from the very beginning. It lights well, it draws well and it finishes well. Burns even with a cool smoke finish at the end. I enjoyed the cigar very much and I think you will too.

Some are literally world class and some are average. I have no idea how this can be. I got one in a sampler and I couldn't believe how good it was. Immediately bought a box. Average.

Great cigar, full flavor and mild taste! Plenty of smoke and draws well. Gurkha Classic Havana is a top shelf cigar in every respect. I will buy this cigar again and again. I first bought a 5 pack and realized I wanted a box! This cigar and the Chairman Select are two really great cigars from Gurkha! This review wants me to say something about service, but I’m not sure what that means? Again, this is a great smoke and exactly what I’m looking for with respect to flavor, draw and still relatively mild taste!

Tasty and aromatic. Packed somewhat light and burned faster than expected.They were still enjoyable but were toros that only lasted as long as an average corona.That's why I gave 4 out of 5 stars.

I would count this as among the best that Gurkha has put out there so far. It does not taste exactly (or better) than a good Cuban stick, but it is close enough.

One of my favorite budget cigars. Great feel and shape. The flavor is super smooth without the bitterness. I have always had an uneven burn with these. Not bad but consistently a little off. Stock up on these. They are worth a spot in your humidor.

I find this overall to be a fairly pleasant smoke. I had a little trouble with one burning down the middle and several of them with the rapper coming off.

The upside: Great concept …limited production, cool band, and nice box pressed. The flavor is quite rich and enjoyable. The downside: Light pack density makes for a loose draw and airy smoking experience. The filler and wrapper are too dry; causing the cigar to burn hot and unevenly. I will try again after at least a month of rest in the humidor.
