I agree they aren't horrible, but the price to enjoyment ratio is not good. They are a $5 stick at most. They are not worth the premium that Gurkha demands. Years ago they were a decent stick. Unfortunately, K.H. got greedy, ala Rocky Patel, and everything went to ****.

The first run of the Beast and Titan were quite good. I actually have a couple of each with probably 5-6 years on them. Might fire one up this weekend.

I tried a bunch of them many years ago and for their price point they were to hit and miss with the hits just being tolerable and mediocre at best. I never understood the appeal of them but they do sell well at my local. I was given a Shaggy recently to try and have heard that this is the best offering from them but I have yet to be able to bring myself to smoke it.
