Gurkha Cigar Group Inc. announced today the debut of a groundbreaking new collection: Volition America by Gurkha Cigars. This collaboration marks a bold new chapter in premium cigars—fusing exceptional craftsmanship with a profound purpose.
Volition America isn’t just a brand; it’s a movement. With a steadfast mission to honor and support those who protect our freedoms, Volition America by Gurkha Cigars brings together true American patriotism and world-class cigar-making. Every cigar purchased is a tribute to our heroes and a step toward empowering their families, as 13% of all proceeds directly fund educational scholarships for the children and spouses of fallen and disabled military members and first responders through Folds of Honor.
“This project is very near and dear to our hearts, said Jim Colucci, President of Gurkha Cigar Group. “We are immensely proud to support the legacy of our veterans and first responders. With each Volition America cigar, we honor their sacrifices and contribute to a brighter future for their families.”
A Cigar Line with Deep American Symbolism
The Volition America by Gurkha Cigars honors America’s rich history and the sacrifices of its heroes in a unique and powerful way:
- Each box holds thirteen cigars, echoing the thirteen folds of the American flag—a symbol of respect, honor, and heritage.
- The cigars are presented in Red, White, and Blue boxes, representing the colors of the American flag. Inside each box is a detailed description of the meaning behind each fold, a tribute to the enduring legacy of America’s defenders.
- Every purchase supports a purpose, making each smoke a gesture of gratitude and a contribution to something greater.
- Red Box: Maduro Wrapper for a bold, rich experience.
- White Box: Habano Wrapper with a balanced, medium profile.
- Blue Box: Connecticut Wrapper, delivering a smooth, mild draw.
Each cigar is a 6 x 54 Toro, a generous size that allows enthusiasts to savor the exceptional craftsmanship Gurkha is renowned for. As a special nod to the brand’s values, each box includes a QR code linking to stories of impact and the incredible work of Folds of Honor.
“We’re excited to partner with Gurkha to bring America not just the next great premium cigar, but a cigar with a deeper purpose. This isn’t just about enjoying a smoke—it’s about giving back to those who sacrificed for our freedom and uniting our country through shared values.” said John Sapiente, CEO of Volition America. “Every puff is a salute to the brave.”
The Volition America line also features exclusive accessories, including a triangular gold ashtray and a custom lighter, bearing the Volition America logo. Coming soon, a specially designed humidor with a display frame for a folded American flag—an emblem of pride and remembrance.
In true tribute to our veterans, Volition America by Gurkha Cigars will officially launch on Veterans Day, November 11, 2024. This collection is more than just a cigar; it’s a celebration of American values, a statement of gratitude, and a commitment to future generations.
