The East India Trading Company’s Rogue is one of the newest cigars distributed by Gurkha. Kaizad has always been one to push boundaries in the cigar industry and the name of this cigar perfectly describes his brand. This is an amazing medium-to-full bodied cigar that is chock full of complexity. A smooth Ecuadorian Habano leaf wrapper drapes a rare Ecuadorian binder. The filler is an exquisite blend of 3-year-aged Nicaraguan, Dominican, and Honduran ligero.
A large white and gold band adorns this beautiful coffee bean hued cigar. With a smooth finish and an unfinished foot, the aromas of nuts and cream overcome your senses before you even light this stick up. The all ligero blend could have overpowered, but this cigar is full flavored and a ton of complexities come through with each puff.
The Gurkha Rogue builds in strength with each third but never overpowers. Each flavor comes through perfectly and you will be amazed at the number of intricacies this stick provides. The nutty sweetness on the aftertaste pairs perfectly with a nice after dinner cordial. We would also recommend the Gurkha Ghost and Gurkha Ninja.
