Gurkha Heritage Maduro is wrapped with a Mexican San Andres maduro wrapper leaf, and uses a Brazilian Arapiraca binder and fillers from Brazil and Nicaragua. The use of maduro tobacco in both wrapper and binder is not common, and the Gurkha company refers to this stick as a "double maduro". Some noticeable notes of cocoa and espresso are present in this earthy, medium to full bodied cigar. The cigar is handmade in Nicaragua at the American Caribbean Tobacco factory.
