GURKHA

Gurkha cigars are hand-rolled from the finest tobaccos grown in the Cibao Valley of the Dominican Republic.

In 1989, Hansotia decided to resurrect a cigar brand rich in tradition and steeped in legend and history. Gurkha Cigars were created more than a century ago and were known for their meticulously and artisanally handcrafted cigars but when Hansotia revived the brand, there was no way he could have known that the cigar industry was about to experience a boom and he would have the perfect product to attract the new cigar consumer.

Today, Gurkha makes cigars for all price points and all palettes but when it began Gurkha cigars were unlike other cigars in the market and that they came in highly ornate packaging and with a steep price tag. Hansotia felt that there was a market for more luxurious and exclusive cigars for those with tastes for only the finer and more elusive products. In focusing on this segment Hansotia created the ultra premium cigar category.

35TH ANNIVERSARY

The 35th Anniversary cigars were rolled by the El Artista factory of the Dominican Republic, which is a new partnering for Gurkha, this partnership had led to the rolling of the Gurkha Revenant line.

The cigars use a Habano wrapper, Indonesian binder, and fillers of Nicaraguan Criollo ’98 from the Estelí region.

A masterpiece for any wine lover, Petite Syrah is not just a more “petite/small” version of or Shiraz/Syrah, it’s a distinct grape variety. Petite Syrah is the offspring of Syrah and Peloursin. If you’ve never heard of Peloursin, that’s understandable: it’s nearly extinct, found just a few places in the French-Alps. Petite Syreah is loved for its extraordinary deep color and full-bodied flavors of blueberry, chocolate, plums and black pepper. Despite its popularity, Petite Sirah is an exceptionally rare grape with less than 10,000 planted acres worldwide, mainly in California.

Tasting Notes

This almost pitch black Petite Syrah Reserve opens with aromas of crushed violet and red rose, then black and blue berries, and then sandalwood and black pepper! Lively and velvety on the palate, its powerful tannins and notes of dried fig followed by spicy hints of liquorice and black pepper produce its length and a savory finish.

Food Pairing

Barbecue beef, roasted pork, sautéed mushrooms, cheeses- Camembert, aged Gouda are the perfect match to this heavenly wine.
