As a person that is not much of a Connie fan, I have to say that the one I smoked the other day was very nice. It wasn't all over the map flavor wise, rather, it was fairly consistent and has very smooth transitions in flavor. I honestly have yet to have a Gurkha that I haven't liked.

Both fall in the category of.. That was okay, but I don't need to keep these in my humidor... Didn't suckk, but I wouldn't miss them if they were no longer available.

I'm not a fan of gurks, but I do like the park ave Connie.

Glad you posted this, I like the Park Ave., but haven't had the maduro. Guess I'll wait for it to come on COTM to try for myself, as you sound pretty sure of yourself.

I've had both and thought they were both enjoyable smokes. Neither blew my socks off but enjoyed both of them.

I got a bad box or something. Every one of these has such a loose draw it's like sucking air though one of those fat fast food drinking straws. Anybody else had loose draws on these? I've tried to smoke three of them by now and I keep cutting less and less off the pointy torpedo head but still it draws soooo freely. I cut just a 1/8 to 1/4 inch diameter hole this time. I'm enjoying the flavor but the draw is still crap. Next time I'll punch it with a toothpick and see how that works.

Do they burn fast too, or have thin smoke? Ive had a few and all were good smokes, especially ( and surprisingly) construction wise.

I tried them a while back, I really didn't dig them. I always thought the Symphony was Gurkha's best conny.

I didn't allow them to burn fast. It was a pain in the ass but I paid attention after I knew the draw was loose and had to pace myself to avoid a hot burn.

Great. Since I dislike Gurkhas in general and this one in particular, and I also happen to be new to the site, I'm a troll. Awesome logic there.

So where are all you guys, a couple of whom think the Symphony is one of the two best Connecticut wrapped cigars on the market, when people are saying gurkhas are garbage?

What is the general consensus on the Connecticut? I had one in my humidor for a couple of months now
