Gurkha Nicaraguan Coleccion Especial

The Gurkha Nicaraguan Coleccion Especial is a line extension of Gurkha’s Coleccion Especial. Like the other cigars under this collection, the Nicaraguan uses a vitola that complements the blend. For this release, the blend is made of 100% premium Nicaraguan tobacco that is rolled into an eye catching piramide shape. The cigar is medium to full-bodied. It is an exclusive, limited-release cigar that is available only through members of the Tobacconists’ Association of America (TAA), which is a group of the top tobacconists in the nation. The TAA consists of about 80 retailers and 40 manufacturers, which Neptune Cigars is proud to be a member of.
