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 solid cocktail choice, this 100% agave Tequila has rich, rounded vanilla and zingy peppery notes followed by a dry cocoa accent on the finish. The bottle is a stunner, with its yellow, red and black Day of the Dead graphic that's meant to be frozen to bring out additional thermochromic details. (It's a bit of overkill—the bottle is plenty eye-catching at room temperature.)

Food Pairings: A Culinary Adventure

The versatility of José Cuervo Tradicional Reposado makes it an excellent companion to a variety of dishes. Its smooth, slightly sweet profile complements spicy Mexican cuisine, such as tacos al pastor or enchiladas with mole sauce. The subtle oak notes also pair well with grilled meats, adding a touch of complexity to the meal.  

For a delightful cheese pairing, consider a mature Manchego. Its nutty, slightly salty character balances the sweetness of the tequila, creating a harmonious flavour combination. A creamy goat's cheese, with its tangy notes, also provides a lovely contrast, enhancing the tequila's subtle spice.

Cigar Pairing: A Moment of Refinement

For those who enjoy a fine cigar, José Cuervo Tradicional Reposado offers a sophisticated pairing. The tequila's smooth, oak-infused character complements cigars with medium to full bodies. Consider a cigar with notes of cedar, spice, or a touch of sweetness.

A Montecristo No. 4, with its balanced flavour profile, would be an excellent choice. The cigar's earthy notes and subtle sweetness harmonise with the tequila's agave and oak. Alternatively, a Partagas Serie D No. 4, with its robust spice, offers a bolder pairing, enhancing the tequila's complexity.
