Ghurka Vintage Review

[illinoishoosier]

Has anyone had one of these?

I smoked the robusto this afternoon. Very grassy aroma pre lit. This was a tough little bugger to get lit and then it burned uneven, but corrected itself when given the chance. The flavor is mild and I even thought tasted something "flowery" for lack of a better word (cigar noob speak).
The band pulled off a bit of the leaf.

Not a great cigar, but a good early in the day, mild one.

My first "official" review. How'd I do?

From personal experience:
After a year they get a lot better, very smooth, good morning smoke.

Unfortunately, by then you don't give a crap.
