Bah, you can't properly recreate the flavor profile of a Gurkha with a twig.
Unless you age it in moldy dirt.
Seriously, is it just me, or does anyone else taste actual earth in those things? In fairness, the extreme earthiness/dirt taste component is not 100% bad, and there are foods I'd even try pairing that stick with - mushrooms and truffles definitely come to mind. It's just not entirely my idea of
good, so I generally pass on the moldy dirty twigs. Er, Gurkhas.
Your taste and mileage may of course vary.
