The World Of Gurkha: $24.95


Gurkha continues to be one of the hottest brands year after year. The demand for Gurkha has never been higher than it is now. We wanted to come out with a selection of five Gurkha Churchill blends that would excite every cigar smoker. Gurkha sells some of the most expensive cigars in the world, and backs them up with rare vintage tobaccos that could only be supplied by the Torano family. For example, Gurkha came out with His Majesty’s Reserve blend at $750 per cigar! If you have never tried a super premium cigar, or want to expand your past Gurkha experiences into new Gurkha blends, here is your chance. This five pack line up will not last long, so take advantage of this amazing selection: 1 Gurkha Grand Reserve Connecticut, 1 Gurkha Masterblend, 1 Gurkha Master Select, 1 Gurkha Legend Vulcan, and 1 Gurkha Regent. Sorry, no Gurkha His Majesty’s Reserve in this selection. This is normally a $75 five pack, so save 67% and pick up as many super premium Gurkhas you would like. Keep in mind that many of the Gurkha blends use vintage tobacco, and certain blends may not ever be made again.

Here Comes Some Serious Savings!

Does huge savings on great smokes get your attention? How about brand names like Carlos Torano or Trinidad? We here at Thompson Cigars have decided to make some room in our massive humidor warehouse for new products coming in this year. We have created an “Outlet” category online to help us with our space problem. This means our loyal blog readers can take advantage of some killer prices, and the chance to find some rare smokes. Keep this in mind. Once these cigars are gone, they are gone for good. We felt that this is the perfect time of the year for us to allow our customers to take full advantage of some amazing smokes. Good luck and enjoy the savings!

Cigar World: Part 3 (Nicaragua)

It now appears that cigars from Nicaragua are fast approaching total production of Honduras, but at a pace that does not demean cigars from Honduras, but says cigar smokers seem to enjoy Nicaraguan cigars in their “collection” of cigars for the variety of tastes.

It is further evident that the city of Estelí, Nicaragua now rivals Santiago, Dominican Republic with brand owners, and brand manufacturing, not yet in total cigars, but by per portion. To name some- Padron, Plasencia, Pepin Garcia, Perdomo, Torano, Oliva, and on and on. This city employs thousands in pursuit of cigars some say as much as 80% of the population.

As a suggestion: If you have yet experienced the Nicaraguan taste, please do so, the range of medium to full body, but very complex.

Further, as a favor to yourself, no cigar “collection” is complete without all countries of origin since each has a distinct quality and taste for certain times of the day.
To name any specific brand is very difficult, like saying, “Tell me your favorite cigar”- however- Nicaraguan cigars are growing in popularity- and you owe it to yourself to try a sampler or just one. –The selection of brands is quite large.

Cigar World: Part 2 (Honduras)


As with the Dominican Republic, Honduras is responsible for cigar production and exporting that employs many thousands, and the quality of products made, the consistency of the unique taste is their benchmark.

From the cities of Danli to San Pedro Sula cigar manufacturers such as Nestor Plasencia, the Toranos, the Eioras, to Altadis and General (now Swedish Match) all are consumed in the quality that is Honduras.

What is the Honduran difference? Some describe it as slightly spicy, but not offensive to the palate, some say they are great after-lunch cigars- whatever is said, one thing is true- they are great cigars.
