October 28, 2022 By Matthew Tabacco

Gurkha Cigar Group International announces its newest partnership reintroducing the brand to the Italian Market.

Gurkha Cigar Group has officially signed on Italian Distributor ITALIA Cigar Company who will share the brand with the Italian Market.  ITALIA Cigar Company was established in 2021 and distributes cigars throughout Italy to Italian Specialized Dealers.  President and CEO, Amedeo Canale, brings an elevated level of professionalism and like-minded values to the market, making his team the perfect match for Gurkha Cigars.

“We are excited to see our brand expand throughout Italy,” comments Jim Colucci, President and CEO of Gurkha Cigars.  “Adding Gurkha to our portfolio was a natural decision given that our company is made up of partners operating in Public Affairs and High Finance in Italy and Europe,” stated Amedeo Canale.

Whether stationed in Italy full time or taking advantage of the beautiful history and tourism in the country, be sure to visit a local cigar store and ask for Gurkha Cigars.

Gurkha Cigars are known throughout the world for their premium cigars. The company produces millions of cigars per year that are sold in more than 70 countries worldwide. While Gurkha is known for its exclusivity, it has an impressive array of brands of flawlessly handcrafted, premium cigars created in a variety of strengths, tasting profiles and price-points. No matter what your taste, there’s a Gurkha cigar that’s perfect for your palate.
