This is a great smoke. They are hand-rolled from fine tobaccos grown in the Cibao Valley of the Dominican Republic, expertly blended with an aged mixture of Nicaraguan and Honduran long-fillers. The gorgeous, dark yet not maduro, silky Habana 2000 wrapper imparts a rich, creamy flavor with a hint of spice and pleasant, finish with a burst of flavor.

You should not that Gurkha has changed this cigar over time. The original, if you are lucky enough to have them, has a much more refined taste with stronger more flavorful overtones. The later releases introduces more Honduran tobaccos and is comparatively flat in my opinion.
