Gurkha Cigars has always prided itself on offering a selection of cigars at various of price points and flavor profiles. This year the cigar manufacturer has added to its value cigar repertoire by introducing Castle Hall, a Connecticut seed wrapped value cigar available by the cigar or the box for less than $5 a cigar. They have also extended the popular Prize Fighter line, the value bundle cigar, by adding a maduro version.
“These new offerings epitomize what a value cigar should be which is a great cigar for a great price,” said Jim Colucci, President of Gurkha Cigars. “These cigars have the quality and flavor of premium cigars but at an incredibly attractive price point.”
Castle Hall was an old Cuban brand revitalized by Gurkha. In honor of this cigar’s heritage, Gurkha has created a Dominican cigar with a value price point. Castle Hall features an Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper, an Ecuadorian Habano binder and Nicaraguan and Dominican filler tobaccos. This mild to medium smooth cigar will be available in three sizes and is set to ship in the first quarter. The cigars will be available for under in 20 count boxes in the following three sizes: • Robusto (5×52) • Toro (6×54) • Magnum (6×60)
