The phenomenal Gurkha Warpig Robusto goes to show that when you put as many troops onto the cigar world’s field of battle as Gurkha does, you’re bound to score a major victory every now and again. Flush with both strength and character, these thick vitolas can stand up to the most discerning aficionado’s palate to leave them thrilled and satisfied. This triumph is accomplished thanks to the juicy Nicaraguan and Costa Rican filler shielded by a thick, coffee-colored Nicaraguan Maduro wrapper. Even more amazing is the fact that this isn’t one of K. Hansotia’s famously high-dollar Gurkha frontmarks, but a medium-full strength stick that starts around four bucks apiece.
It should come as no surprise that the Gurkha Warpig Robusto presents a formidable appearance when viewed among the other, wimpier stogies in your humidor. The large double bands which decorate each 5” X 54 cigar are almost like a suit of armor, which when removed reveals a sleek and dark Maduro wrapper just as suited to protecting the vital longleaf tobaccos within. Once cleanly clipped and alight, a smoldering Warpig first develops the robust tastes of a high-quality mocha with a backbone of leather before slowly releasing additional flavors of cream, black pepper, mesquite, and a touch of cinnamon.
A cigar with this much flavor for such a small amount of cash doesn’t come along very often, and that goes double for Gurkha branded smokes. Take advantage of this opportunity before someone realizes each sleek black box of 12 Gurkha Warpig Robustos could easily fetch twice the current price or more. You’ll be glad to have these fierce warriors on your side when you need them.
