While Gurkha itself can be a polarizing brand, I think most people would agree that they do have a certain panache when it comes to its packaging – especially with the limited editions.

The boxes of 20 cigars certainly look more like humidors than not, with a domed top, copper colored metal lattice and hardware on a black background that contrasts well against each other. Opening the box, you see a black cloth-lined interior, with an ornate gold, black, red and copper-trimmed bands adorning each cigar. Despite everything mentioned above, the cigar surprisingly only retails for $10-11, depending on the vitola. — Brian Burt.
