Gurkha Ghost


Hello Everybody, Today I am giving the run down on one my favorite cigars Gurkha Ghost. Now this cigar came into the American market in October of 2012 just in time for Halloween. There are different sizes available to the masses Shadow (5x52), Asura (6x54), Angel (6x52), and Exorcist (6x60). Now the cigar I prefer is the Exorcist and this is the one I used for the review.

Ghosts are made with a blend of Dominican and Nicaraguan filler tobaccos, a Dominican Criollo 1998 binder, and a dark oily Brazilian Arapiraka

Maduro wrapper.

Ghost cigars are medium bodied, but are loaded with full, rich, spicy and sweet earthy flavors, especially during the first 20 minutes of the smoke. The cigar's explosion of flavors at the start awesome in my opinion, but the chocolate-like taste and spice tamed down a bit during the second 20 minutes, becoming more earthy with hints of cocoa and much less spice. The flavor dropped drown as you smoke through the second and third

. This cigar is a great smoke in my opinion. Rated 93 by the cigar world.

Ghost is very well made, and gave off a noticeably larger than usual volume of smoke while burning, and also delivered a great draw. However, the cigar did not burn too fast, and lasted for one hour and 20 minutes down to 2 inches remaining. The cigar held a long ash and burned evenly. The Cigar did go out a couple of time, although no touch-up lights were needed to keep the burn even. Cost for this cigar is $6.29 -$8.99 per stick depending on the size chosen.

This is something to try if you are a Gurkha brand fan or looking for a great cigar.
