Gurkha Ghost Shadow Robusto Cigar – Box of 21

The Gurkha Ghost Shadow Robusto Cigar features a Brazilian Arapiraca Maduro wrapper with a dark, slightly textured surface. Its construction combines a Dominican Criollo 1998 binder and a blend of aged Dominican and Nicaraguan long-filler tobaccos. The cigar’s medium-to-full body profile derives from these components, which contribute to its balanced combustion and steady draw. Rated 93 by industry evaluators, it is presented in boxes containing 21 units.

The 5 x 52 Robusto format provides a 45-minute smoking duration. Initial flavors include earthy undertones and black pepper, transitioning into espresso and oak notes as the cigar progresses. A molasses sweetness emerges midway, accompanied by dried fruit nuances. The retrohale reveals traces of leather and nutmeg, with cocoa and cinnamon lingering in the finish.
