Gurkha Cellar Reserve

Description

Some things get better with age.

You’ve heard the shtick before. Gurkha cigars are great because of X, Y and sometimes even Z. The Cellar Reserve, however, represents an amazing chapter in the Gurkha line, truly capturing the essence of the company’s roots. Using exceedingly rare tobaccos, the Cellar Reserve is one of the most complex and unique cigars to bear the Gurkha name.

The Gurkha Cellar Reserve is truly a horse of a different color. Elegantly blended using 15-year old Dominican long fillers and hugged by an oily and stunning 15-year old Criollo 98’ wrapper, the Cellar Reseve epitomizes vintage tobacco blending. Never rushing the hands of time, Gurkha's master blenders spent countless hours creating and perfecting this elusive and satisfying blend, and it shows. Upon lighting, the Cellar Reserve immediately asserts a rich and smooth bouquet beautifully displaying the tobaccos at hand. Pay close attention, as this treat subtlety delivers uber-complex flavors behind a slow and methodical burn. Puff after puff reveals unbelievably smooth flavors of oak, earth, and leather backed by a medium to full body. The experience is a nothing short of epic as each draw keeps you in suspense of what’s ahead. Packaged in attractive wine-style crates, the Cellar Reserve looks the part of a finely aged spirits, and rightfully so. 

Great news! Gurkha Cellar Reserve earned a well-deserved 90-rating, noting: "Dark and girthy with a gleaming wrapper, this large cigar strikes a balance of cocoa bean flavors, woody notes and a leathery tasting finish."

I’ve been smoking this cigar for quite awhile now and have found them to be very good. But one complaint is that they have not been properly humidified while in storage. It takes about a week to ten days in my humidor to get them back into smoking shape. It would be nice if CI could find some way to keep them fresher.

As most cigar smokers, I've tried a variety of brands, but the one I always keep in my humidor is the Gurkha Cellar Reserve. As the former "cigar of the decade" it aways checks all the boxes; great flavor, smooth draw..an all round enjoyable smoke.

Plenty of smoke. The burn is even from start to finish. Perfect draw despite the cigar shape. The flavor is bold but not overpowering. It’s a combination of leather, nut, and creamy. This stick is definitely one of my top 3 picks.

One of Gurkha’s best vitolas. Unique and complex aroma and palate, showing hints of oriental spices, aromatic woods, and hearty earthy notes. It usually draws a favorable comment from someone nearby.

This a decent cigar but one that the last half sort of dies out. Ok for the first half but more in a cheap bundle cigar way, muted flavors, and smoke. The last half has little more than a bit of pepper...Gurkha has fallen completely out of my humidors, too many misses, not many hits.
