who can identify this gurkha for me?
 
I smoked a gurkha tonight, but I don't know which one it is:

The cigar is quite dark, 6 inch long and ring 50. The band has little letters 'g g g g g g g g g g' below the drawing of the warrior.

I believe that is a Gurkha Master Select. I have had/enjoyed many Gurkhas but never that one. How was it?

I believe that is the new Gurkha Limited Edition Select Anniversario Master's Reserve Gold Legend Symphony Royal Platinum Vintage Brigade Grand Signature Quadruple Ligero Nepalese Titan Beast Warrior. :D






I keed, I keed. I don't think too many of their cigars are cedar wrapped, so that could narrow it down.

the guys & girls in chat thought it was a master select too, so I think it is.

well, never been a Gurkha fan, never had one that was good but this one surprised me in a good way.

I have had several Gurkhas, but the master select is the only I have liked so far.

I liked the class regent nepalese warrior. I have another gurkha sitting in my cooler. I can't rememebr which it is off hand though. I want to try the symphony and the Legend.

That Masters Select is pretty good, and you can get them for a deal at JR on occasion. I have only tried that one and the Class Regent -- got a box of those for $89 a few months ago. Also have some Legends, I think -- they need some easier names.

The Gurhka website has pictures of all their sticks, but is not the easiest to navigate, IMHO.

The first picture is 100% a master's select. I have a few in my humidor. The second picture is a royal brigade perfecto.

:tpd: Pretty good cigar... Not as earthy and dark as most of the others.

Haven't had either the Master Select or Royal Brigade, but Nepalese Warriors are pretty good. I've got a few others in my humidors that I haven't smoked yet.

The Royal Brigade is probably the best Gurkha I've tried.... FWIW :)

Yeah it is one of the only Gurkha's that i like. For some reason, when I first light them I get a taste of toasted marshmallows or something. Very good.
