At the height of the British rule in India, colonial soldiers
began to make their own cigars from the local tobacco.
The fondness of the British for these legendary Nepalese
fighters inspired them to name their cigars “ Gurkhas.”
After the rule of the Raja Waned, British expatriates
living in India continued to smoke Gurkhas produced in
the Portuguese territory of Goa. Eventually, However,
The Gurkha cigar simply lapsed into obscurity.
Steeped in legend and history, the Gurkha cigar,
created more than a century ago has been reborn
and remains true to its roots in faraway India. Today,
the legend lives on in the premium brand cigar “ Gurkha.” |
