Gudang Garam Surya Taste Review

Gudang Garam Surya 16 stands as a testament to the excellence of Indonesia’s largest tobacco manufacturer, PT Gudang Garam Tbk. Founded in 1958 by Surya Wonowidjojo, this brand has earned a global reputation for crafting high-quality clove cigarettes.

Among Gudang Garam’s 21 distinct assortments, the Surya 16 variety shines the brightest. It is renowned for its exquisite aroma, achieved through a meticulously blended clove tobacco of the highest quality.

The taste of Gudang Garam Surya 16 is truly unique. It offers a spicy profile with a distinctive hint of blood orange and a strong, fragrant caramel flavor. Like fine wine, the taste evolves over time, especially after leaving the pack open, allowing the kretek clove cigarette to be exposed to oxygen. This maturation brings out an even richer flavor, making each puff an experience you have to try for yourself.

Personal Review:

Having tried Gudang Garam Surya 16, I can attest to its exceptional quality. The initial spicy note is intriguing and perfectly balanced by the underlying blood orange undertone. The caramel flavor comes through strongly, adding a delightful sweetness that lingers with each puff. The evolving taste, much like fine wine, makes it a must-try for any clove cigarette enthusiast. This is not just a cigarette; it’s an experience that captures the legacy of Gudang Garam’s dedication to quality.

Note: Each Gudang Garam Surya clove cigarette contains 31 mg of Tar and 2.2 mg of Nicotine.
