Ok
. I've seen it here from a few. A lot of Gurkha hate. Personally I don't get it. I do, however, want to know why. I won't try to convince anyone or tell them their opinion is wrong. Just want to know why you don't like the whole brand. What you tried etc. Or conversely what you like if you're a Gurkha ho like me. Me. I like a med to full flavor smoke. I like that many Gurkha cigars are very unique and not just another same old same old smoke. They are typically very rich in their flavors and usually go very well through the nose (snork). I've tried basically all sizes of. Grand reserve natural and maduro Grand age Master select natural and maduro Estate selection vintage shaggy Doble maduro Centurian XX Royal brigade Royal salute Anniversary natural and maduro Triple ligureo Black dragon and dragonfire Blue steel Probably more I can't think of |

Great topic! Ever since I have joined the cigar forums this has been a common trend among them and I have been wondering this very question myself. As far as Gurkhas go i will stay neutral as I have had some I enjoy and some not so much.

I have smoked many Gurkhas as I became a "serious" cigar smoker. I think some taste like dirt, and some taste worse. So that is my "why".

I think I've had 1 good Gurkha. What bothers me about that line is that you've got a ton of blends that seemingly go nowhere. Rocky Partel, which does something smilair, at least has some decent cigars.

I know that when you posted the "B&M vs. The Big Guys" thread, you admitted that you were trying to stir up some controversy.
Now that that thread has died off, I imagine you sitting at your computer, giggling, thinking, "How can I stir the pot next'. Close? Be honest. ![]()

I have tried several
Have to say they were from unimpressed to truly not good. I had a shaggy footed one once, reminded me of vacuum cleaner bags, toe jam, freeze dried vomit and belly button lint.
