Funny, I'm actually having one now. The infused Louis XIII. For the experience it's worth the $7 or so I paid to smoke it while drinking some cognac. Not bad that's for sure.

I attempted to smoke one about 2 years ago. I pitched it after about 20 minutes. Tasted like a burnt sugar cube.

Much better cigars for much less.

used to enjoy these... then after a year of smoking I discovered retrohaling... changed the way I smoked cigars... last one I smoked (tried to) went just like abrignac said... burnt sugar taste, had to pitch it 1/3 of the way through... pretty sure they dip them in super cheap cognac and sugar water... but like I said, there was a time when I enjoyed them...

Yeah, I may have spoke too soon. This thing is going from not bad, to kinda bad, to crap. It's out at the halfway point because it was ruining my taste for this Hennessy Black I have going on. Gurkha folks I sent out these to I do apologize. My intentions were good! Oh well

The best thing you can do for Gurkha lovers is to send them a REAL cigar so they know what a good cigar is supposed to be like.

I got the 125th unbanded and thought it was great. I bought more. Yes, on purpose. Will I ever try another Gurkha on my own dime? Nope.

What size did you try ?

I have a Louis XIII and a Grand Master waiting to be tried. I only bought a single of each as Gurkha's can be good, bad or somewhere in between. I've found more good than bad and mostly they are somewhere in between.

Three new sticks? I'm guessing all will carry a MSRP of $99.99/cigar and sold immediately at 90% off...and if you call in the next 10 minutes they'll throw in...
