Gypsy in the Palace
Somebody needs to tell JR
that when the subject line for their email starts with, "Big Savings on Gurkha!" I just hit the delete button.
Wait, did I just start the very first Gurkha Bashing thread on Cigar Bums?
We're going to need a bigger humidor

Be nice to Gurkha,just cause the name sounds like a chicken gagging,and IMHO they taste that way too.

I dunno... some of their more recent stuff isn't bad. I rather enjoyed the ghost. I tend to avoid the mass produced online ones though "beast, titan, beauty, widow maker, etc..." just because of construction issues and my personal taste.

The Ghost is the only good one besides the Cellar Reserve. The problem is just the ridiculous MSRP they slap on everything to make them "Premium Cigars"

I just threw out a large assortment of Ghurkas as well as some "fumas" and other assorted junk I make the mistake of winning at cbid when I started out. About 40 sticks total. They'd been taking up an entire tupperdor. Got a shipment of decent stuff in, didn't want to buy more tupperware, so I tossed 'em. It was a load off my mind.

Wise move Gurkhas are deserving of the "Smoking is bad" label.

I've heard you have to be careful which Gurkha you choose. The ones available in B&M are "true" Gurkha and probably better than those found online which are labels that Gurkha has sold.
That being said, after smoking a couple online versions (Beauty and Beast) I haven't even tried any others.
