The cigar you should have tried by now but haven’t...
I realize we have some real cigar veterans here so maybe this doesn’t apply given the amount of cigars you’ve smoked over the years but I’m constantly surprised by the number of brands that I should have at least tried by now and for whatever reason just haven’t. The one that jumps to mind right away is Rocky Patel. Especially since he has like 4 million different varieties under his label. I don’t have anything against RP, I’ve just never had any real motivation to pick up one of his sticks. You guys and gals got any sticks you’ve been procrastinating on?

In the spirit of honesty, and this may get me booted from the club, but I’ve never smoked a Gurkha either...

I think they’re brothers ole Rocky & Gurkha and most of their offerings taste like a rolled up news paper, a very one dimensional poorly constructed one at that. They’re not for me just not in my wheelhouse. If I had to have one or the other Rocky has had a few I enjoyed recently and in the past the ALR today was a very good cigar. The Decade is one I used to have occasionally. Smoke what you like, like what you smoke!

Biggest issues I've had with both Gurkha and Rocky are constant, and I mean 4 out of 5 sticks, construction issues. But that doesn't mean I haven't enjoyed any of their cigars. A few I have liked and have somewhere in one of my Tupperware.
Here are a couple of ones I've enjoyed:
Gurkha Red Witch
Rocky Patel The Edge Maduro
Aging Room Quattro F55 Maduro
Avo XO
Foundation The Tabernacle
and I'm a big fan of La Aurora Cigars

Haven't tried an Opus and probably won't. Haven't had any cuban Cohibas either and probably won't. I'd rather save the money for things that don't just burn up into smoke.
Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

Or...you could just give us your address, preferably a place of residence where you can be located at 16/24 hours in a day, and someone MAY provide you with one of those sticks. Simple enough solution!

Well I'm not going to smoke something I wouldn't pay for myself on someone else's dime. But the big trouble is, what if I LOVE it? Then I'm stuck hunting for bargains on $30 sticks and don't want to smoke my $2.50 to $7.00 ones anymore. Nope, I'd just as soon not get into it. I got plenty of fine pipe tobacco to keep me quite satisfied anyway.
