The cigars are a response to the increasing requests and demand for a flavored product. The company worked with its master blenders to come up with a highly rated blend of spicy, flavorful tobacco from the Dominican Republic with the perfect hint of sweetness and flavor.
Gurkha Cigars has re-mastered several predicate blends to create several impressive cigars that will be introduced at the industry’s largest and most important tradeshow in July.
Overall, it was an average experience and the burn was quite a bit of a turn off. I'm not sure I'd revisit this one even if the burn was better though the floral perfume note was a nice touch for the flavor profile.
I'd be interested in revisiting a better constructed version of the Gurkha Cellar Reserve 15 Year 10th Anniversary to see if the flavor profile could maintain itself longer. Outside of revisiting it for this reason, there's not really any draw for me to come back to this cigar as I felt it was a very poor showing for the brand.
The Gurkha The Master Select already made my personal top cigar list for 2017, much to the howling and gnashing of teeth from online feedback. This is a very well performing cigar, and the price point makes it something that everyone should try for themselves.
