If you're a maduro fan, but you don't like "in your face" cigars, then we have a treat for you - Gurkha Doble Maduro.
In my opinion, what really makes this cigar special is the wrapper. It's an extra-dark Costa Rican maduro. Why this capa isn't used more often is baffling to me. It lends notes of cocoa and roasted almond. When combined with select Honduran long-fillers, it gives you a cascade of flavors that include earth, spices, and just enough sweetness to balance it. Gurkha Doble Maduro comes in only one size - a Double Rothschild that checks in at 6.5" x 58. It's a phenomenal value as well, coming in as low as $5.33 a stick. Try them once and you'll be back to fill up that empty space in your humidor.
