Ghurka X Fuerte Torpedo, mmmm Tasty

This stick was gifted to me by Howland1998 in an extremely generous bomb. Thanks once again Gerry. This cigar is a 7 x 54 Torpedo. It has an awesome dark, oily maduro wrapper, with very few veins. After a quick clip I really expected the draw to be snug, but not at all. It had a great draw. The burn was good and the ash pretty solid. It started off with abit of a black coffee kind of flavour that later went into a sweet, peppery, spicy taste. I really enjoyed this cigar. Its a full bodied cigar, altho not quite as full bodied as I expected with the X Fuerte name. And I think anyone that likes big, peppery maduros would love this cigar. Its great for 2 1/2 hours of smoking bliss. Let me know what you guys think of the Gurkha X Fuerte. And yes I burnt my fingers

Not too bad. I agree that it isn't strong like the name implies but stronger than a lot of Gurkhas. Pretty decent smoke.

Matt,
The least you could have done was finish it! There's at least 1 more draw in it(that's what roach clips are for)
Looked really good

I smoked one Bully gave me with the huge Gurkha bomb (thx again bro) and I find it very good, it was a toro not a torpedo, but I think the taste is the same
