Gurkha Sherpa

tomc3084 · 04-29-2010, 05:58 AM

I got this smoke from Traedgar in a PIF. I smoked this on a whim for the heck of it, thinking I wouldn't get past the first inch. Well, I actually didn't hate it, and nubbed it....I definately wouldnt not mind smoking this working outside/inside , a good yard gar.....Even though they are cheap, I would not buy them still though, as I have to watch what I spend....but for anyone who's looking for a good everyday smoke, I would reccommend this one, Thanks.

I enjoy these as well. Funny thing is that being the maduro whore that I am, I thought no way am I going to enjoy this. These are smooth and creamy.

It's not the standard Gurkha flavor. As Mac noted very mild and fairly creamy. Be aware though for this stick, the wrapper is extremely sensitive to harsh handling and I would keep it a bit wetter - more to 70% humidity. If if is at 65% or less it makes the wrapper even more fraigle.

Wow? Some Gurkha love? Thats unusual around here.

Are these the ones with the connie wrappers that are priced really well?
