Bob, if I don't make it my wife has been asked to transfer all of my cigars and related paraphernalia to you. Please take half and hold a drawing here for the rest. Or you can save some time and just give them to Brianetz1.

Glad I am out of XXX.

#3 done. Seems terribly mild.

I'm honored. And I wish I had been on-line to see you post this throughout the day. I don't know whether to assume that you survived or just wait down at the PO box for the boxes to arrive. Hope you post again so I'll know

Hmmm, no love for the beauty? I love those. Did u smoke the 1st release? I did notice the later ones weren't as good.

I am sure it was not the first release because of the purchase date. The Centurian was the big surprise, it was like smoking air. Theses were the 6X60 from a sampler pack and I guess I expected more from all 3. -

Actually all 3 were kind of light weight. I expected more because of the few smaller ones I have smoked. -
Ah, the variability of the Gurkha brand! When they're good, they're really good.jd50ae:phobicsquirrel:Hmmm, no love for the beauty? I love those. Did u smoke the 1st release? I did notice the later ones weren't as good.

Then, some smoke like air, and all too often, they just swell up and fall apart.Or, conversely, no amount of rolling or poking will allow air to pass through the body of the cigar.
Congratulations on making it through all three. I've smoked a few Centurions, the ones that held together were good, but I was also let down. My first Gurkha was a Titan Presidente, took >3 hours to smoke, and I was expecting something like that experience. Like Squirrel, I really like the Beauty's that I've had, that didn't blow up. -
The best Gurkha I have smoked was an 8x52 Ancient Warrior Presidente, that had some real age on it and it was a really nice 3+ hour smoke. I think I judge all Gurkhas against it.Amos Umwhat:
