PCA Magazine Fall 2019

88 PCA The Magazine SEPTEMBER-OCTOBER 2019 PREMIUMCIGARS.ORG Five Questions WHAT’S GOT YOU MOST EXCITED ABOUT GURKHA RIGHT NOW?  We have some very exciting new products coming out right now that will resonate with Gurkha fans. We have put a lot of focus and effort in creating cigars that will really elevate the cigar smoking experience. IF YOU HAD TO PICK A FAVORITE BLEND YOU’VE CREATED, WHAT WOULD IT BE AND WHY? I would have to say the Nicaragua Series: It is a Nicaraguan puro out of Aganorsa Leaf that is the fullest flavored cigar we have ever produced. It is a really great cigar. WHY IS PACKAGING SO IMPORTANT FOR YOUR COMPANY? We believe in the total cigar experience. Just like with food, you first find pleasure in what enters through your eyes and it is the same with a luxurious cigar. You see a beautiful product and then smoke an amazing cigar and it solidifies the whole experience. WHAT WOULD YOU BE DOING IF YOU WEREN’T IN THE CIGAR INDUSTRY? If I weren’t in the cigar industry I would still be in something that would carry a strong brand and set trends, whether it be fashion or jewelry. WHERE DO YOU SEE GURKHA IN FIVE YEARS? In five years, Gurkha will be a stronger brand with a greater international presence. You will see our cigars getting more and more recognition and stronger ratings. 1 . 2 . 3 . 4 . GURKHA CIGARS 5 .
