Gurkha has begun shipping what the company is describing as its fullest cigar to date.

The Gurkha Nicaragua Series is a Nicaraguan puro that uses a corojo 99 claro wrapper over a corojo 99 binder and corojo 99 and criollo 98 fillers. It’s part of the first batch of Gurkha cigars made by AGANORSA.

  • Gurkha Nicaragua Series Robusto (5 x 52) — $9.75 (Box of 20, $195)
  • Gurkha Nicaragua Series Toro (6 x 54) — $9.95 (Box of 20, $199)
  • Gurkha Nicaragua Series Magnum (6 x 60) — $10.95 (Box of 20, $219)
  • Gurkha Nicaragua Series Belicoso (6 1/8 x 52) — $10.95 (Box of 20, $219)

The Nicaragua Series is a limited edition, though the company is not disclosing production numbers though it says retailers were limited to five boxes per size per store.
