Gurkha Ghost Gold

The classic Gurkha Ghost Cigars have been sold very successfully around the world for many years. The Brazil Arapiraca wrapper is complemented by a Criollo 98 binder from the Dominican Republic, while the filler tobaccos all come from Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic. The blend of the Ghost GOLD, introduced here and launched in Germany in December 2018, is significantly different. The filler also contains a small amount of tobacco from the USA, the binder is Mexican tobacco, and the lighter wrapper is an Ecuadorian Sun Grown leaf.

Gurkha Ghost GOLD: a New Dimension of Flavor

Gurkha cigars have been available since the early 1990s. At that time, most products were neither particularly original nor packaged to a high standard, and cigar prices were at a “normal” level. Gurkha, however, chose its own path early on and went on to introduce many highly distinctive and very expensive cigars, establishing the glamorous and exclusive image that continues to define the brand today. As a result, the brand strongly divides cigar enthusiasts. People either love it or hate it—there seems to be no middle ground. Owner Kaizad Hansotia acquired the trademark rights while on a beach vacation on the Indian island of Goa in the 1980s.

The Evolution of Gurkha Ghost Cigars: the Introduction of Ghost GOLD

Originally intended only as gifts for business associates and family, this passion evolved over the years into a thriving business model. Today, Gurkha cigars are among the best-known and most popular brands worldwide in the categories of Nicaraguan cigars and cigars from the Dominican Republic.
