Smoking a good cigar is synonymous with sophistication and elegance. Therefore, this is a deeply rooted custom among the elites and great fortunes.
Now these exclusive customers can multiply this experience thanks to the prestigious tobacco brand Gurkha Cigars. This company is well known among the upper classes for its exquisiteness when it comes to manufacturing what is considered the best tobacco in the world. Gurkha sells 12 million cigars each year, which it distributes to more than 70 countries across the globe.
From his hand comes The Royal Courtesan, already considered the most expensive cigar in the world with a value of 1,000,000 dollars (945,100 euros).
The best raw material
Among the reasons for this high price is the use of the best raw materials.
In that sense, The Royal Courtesan is made with a filler from ancient Himalayan lands and the tobacco leaf used has been irrigated solely and exclusively with Fijian water.
Added to this is that the cigar is infused with Remy Martin’s Black Pearl Louis XIII whiskey. Each bottle of this precious drink has a cost of 165,000 dollars (155,940 euros).
Pure gold on the palate
But the real reason for the high price is that this elegant cigar is wrapped in gold leaf and is set with 5-carat diamonds. A whim within the reach of very few.
Single production and delivery
Not only the cigar itself and its components make this tobacco unique in the world, but also the methodology used to make it.
Those in charge of doing it are a select group, made up of the best experts, who carry out the work blindfolded. The objective of this strange way of preparing it is none other than to make it easier for them to concentrate the 5 senses on the task, and not to fall into any external distraction.
People who decide to purchase this precious cigar will also have a very special delivery. And it is that a messenger will come to his home and they will deliver this precious treasure while he wears white gloves, a symbol of purity, elegance and exclusivity.
