Cheap Gurka?

[Nader18]

Well my birthday was this week and so i bought my first Gurka.A Gurka Beast. I told the owner of my local B&M and he gave it to me half price not bad. But anyways i can see why they call this the "Cadillac" of all cigars. Man this cigar was beautiful wrapped in cedar. It had an perfect draw and a mostly even burn. It only took me a hour to smoke it which suprised me considering how big it was. I'd give it a 90/100. Any body know of a similar cigar but a little less cheaper??

Congrats on the good birthday smoke and happy belated birthday!

Check out cigars international they are having a Gurkha special. I cant post links yet, but check out the main page and then select the Samples menu item and look at the last entry.
I used it to get some good samplers and saved like $150.

I prefer the Titan 2 to the beast. I think the beast is similar to the CAO Mx2 in the 60 ring size.
Happy birthday.

I saved some of that $150 and got the Balck Dragons! FTW. This week will be a good week when the mailman comes. Although me being overseas and all it takes about a week to get stuff in the mail.

troll Cbid for better prices on Gurkha in general. I haven't had the Beast so can't help you as to other cigars that would be similar

Ditto this,,,you can score these at a much better price point on there as sticker on these smokes are insane. I like the Beast, Titan and Centurians the best. Nader>>>> To smoke The Beast in one hour is impressive,,,did you have a Hoover strapped on to your mouth to do that? lol

I guess I envey you guys, I have yet to find a Gurkha I like....I'm just not a fan of their flavor/taste profile.

The company currently puts out over 90 different cigars under the Gurkha name....you'd think I could find something I like.

I got the Gurkha Blue Steel robustos from cbid. Pretty good cigar and I only paid $17 for a 5pack when they first came out.

Now that I see all of these posts, I am very tempted to buy a sampler online and try it!
