Gurkha Vintage 2001

The Gurkha Vintage 2001 is their masterclass in elegance! It is a blend conceived for smokers, by smokers, who value character and substance over style—because the world does not run on full-bodied cigars alone. 

Gurkha has always boasted top-quality craftsmanship – and the Vintage 2001 has it, and then some. Expertly blended and skillfully rolled for subtle sophistication, the Vintage 2001 starts with a Dominican binder and aged long filler to lay the groundwork for a straight down the middle, medium bodied flavor profile that rides the stripe of balance and consistency. These Caribbean tobaccos are wrapped in a dark Broadleaf that has been cultivated in the Connecticut River Valley – a legit Maduro leaf that presents a luminous, inviting appearance that signals a mellower profile (remember, Maduros aren’t always stronger). 

Right from the get-go, you’ll notice that the Vintage 2001 radiates notes of cedar, toasted almonds, and a whisper of sweet cream. Delicate hints of spice and vanilla follow, lingering on the finish. Draws like a champ and burns evenly, because that’s what great premiums do. The aroma is great, too.

 Our reviewers like the Gurkha Vintage 2001 for smooth-smoking character, as well as its consistent construction and inviting aroma. We found a light spice mixed with walnut and hints of vanilla, plus a smooth, creamy aroma – and expect you will, too. 

Vintage 2001 is among the more respected offerings in the Gurkha portfolio. And when combined with the low Famous Cigars price, is perfect for some R&R “me” time that you can fill with an easygoing cigar. Whether that’s after dinner or a well-spent afternoon is up to you; this Gurka and its well-aged tobaccos will fit just about any bill. Order yours now at Famous Cigars!
