Well, there are two types of Rolls Royces:

1.) Actual Gurkha's--prohibitively expensive for the quality you're actually getting. You could buy FAR better for FAR cheaper.

2.) "Gurkha's"--advertised as "Save 75% off MSRP!" AKA, if you're paying $40 for twenty Gurkha's...they're not *actual* Gurkha's.

As a rule, I would steer clear of them.

Gurkha are pure hype. I think I've only had one Gurkha I liked.

Well, to buy "actual" Gurkha's is more expensive than 90% of the Cuban cigars out there.

Buy what you want, but don't be surprised if your major score ends up a dog rocket. 👻

Just to be slightly objective (yeah, around here....) what price point do you normally smoke? Lots of equally good or better 2-3 dollar cbid cigars, but if you find a Gurkha you like knowing what you get on CI or CBid isn't the way expensive stuff all the previous posters mention at 75% discount.

But you can get lots of solid smokes like MoW, 5V, etc for about as low a price if that's what you smoke, or much better smokes (CAO, AF, AB on and on).

But what do I know, I'm a cheap azz n00b that honestly likes Flor Del Doo Doos as much as most CI/Cbid Gurkhas I've smoked.

royal challenge, cellar reserve, and seduction are all good (the seduction especially after a six month rest, not so good without it)...

all 3 were here for a week or two but probably didn't get the dollar they were looking for and haven't seen them since...

I use to really like the evil... haven't had one in a while and probably not worth whatever ridiculous price they're going for here right now...
