Review Notes: Very smooth, nice band, but lacking on flavor. I don't know what these people are talking about with the flavor...it just ain't there.

 Review Notes: This was a fantastic cigar. Great looking, milk chocolate wrapper. The pre-light draw was chocolaty (sp?) and sweet. It smoked that way for the first 2 inches as well. I LOVED this flavor! As it warmed up the flavor deepend and became earthy (and less sweet) with a little spice towards the end of the smoke (smoked it to a nub). Lot's of smoke. I can't say enough about this cigar. I'm rating the value based on the price I paid. I'd pay retail for this stick, but would rate the value lower. At $6 a stick, I'd smoke these any day.

 Review Notes: I had my first one this past weekend and loved it. It was still a little young and had some uneveness to the burn but, it was still enjoyable. The construction was solid; the burn (except the uneveness) was good with a whitish ash; the aroma was sweet kind of like cotton candy but not as sweet. Through the first third of it, it was smooth, then came the spiciness; then came the smooth/spiciness again; the last third was full of cocao, nuttiness and wood, and the everpresent (by now) spice. Very complex, very good smoke. When I was finished there was barely a half-inch left. These will be even better with some more time in the humidor. I got mine on auction.

 Review Notes: A friend went to the Gurkha event at Briar Patch in Sacramento, he raved about this stick and give me one to try. After letting the stick rest awhile in the humi, I gave it a try. The construction was good resulting in a smooth draw and a nice even burn. The flavor was decent with some leather and a little spice. I actually prefer a more spicy sweet taste, but this was not bad. I smoked it to the band, so I will be adding some more of these to the humi.

 Review Notes: Lots of flavor with some strength. Construction was excellent. Became quite spicy at the end. Wifey loved it and I even thought it was very good. Draw was superb and just a few minor touchups on a chilly December afternoon. Best Ghurka that I've had.
