The Gurkha Ghost Spooky Short XO Cigar is a bold and luxurious smoke, crafted for those who appreciate deep complexity and robust flavors in a compact format. Measuring 4 x 60, this short gordo vitola delivers a concentrated and intense experience while maintaining a smooth and balanced character. Featuring a dark and alluring Brazilian Arapiraca Maduro wrapper, this cigar has an oily sheen and a slightly toothy texture, contributing to its rich, decadent profile. Beneath the wrapper lies a Dominican Criollo 1998 binder, which holds together a well-aged blend of Dominican and Nicaraguan long-fillers, ensuring a harmonious smoking experience with layers of depth and intrigue.
From the first draw, the Gurkha Ghost Spooky Short XO captivates with a bold earthy richness, intertwined with dark cocoa, espresso, and a hint of black pepper spice. The initial intensity is complemented by underlying notes of sweet molasses, oak, and dried fruit, adding a pleasant complexity. As the cigar progresses, a subtle leather and nutmeg nuance emerges, creating a well-rounded and satisfying profile. The retrohale amplifies the experience with warm, spicy undertones and a lingering finish of dark chocolate and roasted coffee.
This medium to full-bodied cigar is expertly constructed for a flawless draw and even burn, making it an excellent choice for those seeking a shorter smoking session without compromising on depth or intensity. It pairs beautifully with a full-bodied whiskey, aged rum, or a rich espresso, enhancing its bold flavors and refined character.
