Gurkha Year of the Snake 2025 by Oliva 6"5/8 * 52

In celebration of the Chinese Zodiac's Year of the Snake, Gurkha has collaborated with three world renown names to create a trio of distinctive limited-edition cigars. This medium-full bodied Nicaraguan was brought to us by Oliva and has a limited production of 750 boxes of 10 each. Sporting a Mexican San Andreas Sumatra wrapper over Nicaraguan fillers, this cigar is packed with flavor: coco, coffee, natural sweetness, and a tantalizing spice that neither bores not overwhelms the palate. For Gurkha or Oliva fans this one is sure to be memorable as the blending tradition and excellence of two well known organizations combines to bring us this limited release.

  Oliva Cigar Co.

  Oliva Cigar Company is Nicaragua's second largest grower of tobacco and one of the largest cigarmakers in the world. It all started in 1886 when Melanio Oliva first grew tobacco in Cuba. In 1995, his grandson Gilberto Oliva would launch the Oliva cigar brand, produced in Esteli, Nicaragua. The company's flagship brand, Oliva Serie V, has obtained some of the highest ratings in cigar publications worldwide. Their cigars use mostly tobacco harvested by the company in their various farms in Nicaragua.
• Cigar Wrapper
  Mexican San Andres Sumatra

  The wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.
  Mexican Sumatra-seed tobacco is grown in the San Andres valley and is called Mexican Sumatra. Typically used for wrappers, this dark tobacco is smooth, peppery and light. The leaves are thick so they are often used as maduro wrappers.
• Cigar Binder
  Nicaragua

  The binder is a full tobacco leaf that is used to roll the cigar, binding the filler tobaccos together. 
  Nicaraguan cigar binders are produced mainly in Esteli and Jalapa, both lands with volcanic soil and excellent climate for growing tobacco. Binders grown in Jalapa have sweet undertones. Corojo, Habana2000, Criollo, and Maduro binders are all produced in Nicaragua.
• Cigar Filler
  Nicaragua

  Filler is the term used to describe the tobacco inside a cigar or the "guts" of the cigar.
