Construction

The cigar was evenly rolled with a larger vein running from the center behind the wrapper. The vein was so large that it made a difference when I got to the center and I had to correct the glow a bit, luckily only by a few centimeters a few times. The wrapper had a slightly oily feel to it.

Wrapper: Ecuador – Binder: Nicaragua – Filler: Nicaragua

Scent and cold draw

The cigar had a scent of hay and general sweetness. The cold draw gave me flavors of maltiness and wood.

Lets light up the Gurkha Cask Blend Cooper Double Robusto

The texture of Gurkha Celler Reserve 12 year Platinum Solara Double Robusto was a combination of dry and creamy. The flavors I felt were earth, leather, woodiness, nuttiness and hay. In the background there were flavors of Florality and general sweetness. Retrohalation tickled slightly my nose and gave nuances of hay and pepperiness.

After taste

Walnuts

Smoke time

65 minutes

Conclusion

The cigar is suitable for people who like more earthy flavors. The flavors are well balanced. Unfortunately, the cigar glowed crookedly in the middle part. If I compare price vs taste vs quality, I think the cigar is high in price.
