Gurkha Shaggy

As we know, with Gurkha, presentation is everything. The Gurkha Shaggy embraces an old school Cuban cigar-making tradition of leaving the end of the cigar uncut. As legend has it, this shaggy foot is a throwback to 1920’s Havana when Cuban cigar factories were taking orders from VIPs for custom-rolled cigars; the unfinished, protruding filler leaves gave the smoker an air of status, and the appearance that they were somebody special enough to have their own custom-made cigars.

Occasionally employed to this day, Gurkha has made this visual standout central to the brand – and it’s not just for looks. While Gurkha Shaggy embraces this deliberately “unfinished” aesthetic of authentic, old-world cigar making, the exposed long fillers allow you to get a full taste of the core blend without being influenced by the wrapper or binder. Flavor-wise, the profile leans earthy, joined by notes of cedar, toasted wood, coffee bean, and baking spice.

Ideal for relaxed evenings, outdoor smoking, or pairing with bourbon or strong coffee, Gurkha Shaggy Gordo offers a flavorful experience that is unpolished and authentic. Try for yourself – order today!
