Gurkha Rare Breed
(2.75)
Notes: Gurkha products are known to be unique and Rare Breed fits in that same mold. A smooth, medium strength latakia blend with toasty red Virginia, a bit of white burley, exotic Turkish and a splash of perique for richer body and a hint of sweetness - a perfect late night bowl.

Tin note of smoky, barbeque and dark fruit. Tobacco is a Ribbon cut of tan, brown, dark brown and black. Moisture content is great. Burns moderatly with a few relights. The strength is medium and nic is mild. No flavoring detected. Taste is medium and mostly consistent, with notes of smoky, tart and tangy vinegary sour, herbal floral, spices, musty vegetation, incense, lemon grass, wood, dry bitter, savory, buttery, spicy, very earthy, a mildly sweet dried fruit background note, and a peppery retro. Latakia is leading with Burley, Oriental/Turkish, Perique, Virginia supporting. Room note is tolerable and aftertaste is great.
