I just had each within the last week. The legend was a churchill and the centurian was a perfecto. Both were excellent, but I think I prefered the legend. I'm stilling figuring out what I like and how to describe what I like, but I'd say the legend was more complex. And it lit and burned perfectly, draw was perfect, etc.
Ok, I'm second-guessing my use of the word complex now. I would definitely say I liked the legend better, but both were great. I just felt like I was getting more varied tastes out of the legend.
dont doubt yourself. i find gurkhas more complex in nature than rocky patels line but there are plenty of people out there that disagree with me on that. it really may be what you taste. only you know what you like. stick with it.

Thanks, I've had numerous gurkhas and liked them all, the legend being the best in my opinion. Where I have a tough time is in explaining the tastes, which is why reading on here helps. I've only had on RP and I think it was a sungrown, but it was given to me and I had had about seven beers too many to make a fair assessment.
Thanks Kuz. I enjoyed the article and was actually telling my girlfriend and her sister and husband the other day about the whole wine tasting. I found it an interesting approach to developing the senses and pallet.
I had a Centurian last night and I'm not impressed. The draw was hard throughout the entire smoke and started off harsh. It did start to smooth out with good taste near the middle and finished nicely. I will not go out of my way to have one of these again, but I wouldn't turn it down either. The smoke had been resting for about 8 months.
I ordered a couple 5 packs of the Centurian when ccom had them up a little while ago. So far I have smoked 2 and gave my buddy 1... the 2 I smoked were excellent and I really enjoyed them and had no burn issues... the one my buddy smoked imploded right off the bat and basically just fell apart and never had any flavor....
I would buy more so far though, I really have enjoyed them.
Had my first one today... and i loved it.
You have to clip more off the end than normal (about a half inch or so for me) to get a good draw but the taste is phenomenal! I want some more sticks like these!
I wonder if them medals or really earned, seems every dictator has massive amounts of medals!!!! I call BS! Anyhoo, yeah the centurians are good cigars. I've had 4 and 3 were damn good, the other was a little off. I think I have like 14 or so, wish I saw that deal. 30 is a crap load. I have 42 beasts that I got off a deal and though I spent butt loads less than buying the box, I wish I had as I have no where to put them really and my beauty's are lonely..... MUST FIND one.
