Gurkha Titan

christian1971

Cigar.com has the gurkha titans normally $30 a piece, for 10/$39.95. Are these the same cigar and why the low price. I've had one and loved it.

I haven't had the thirty dollar version and probably never will but I can definitely vouch for the three-ninety-nine version. Its A great smoke.

How does it compare to the Gurkha Beast?

RBeckom

The Beast is A bit more complex and fuller bodied. I prefer to smoke A Beast after A good meal.

They are the same...C.com just got a REALLY good deal and is passing it on to us!

I think they got a deal on some overstock or something, so they can afford to sell them at that price. No boxes as well makes a big difference with Gurkha pricing LOL.

This is the biggest thing with that! I had a convo with Tim once and he said that the Titan's aircraft aluminum box is what made up a big chuck of the price of that box

I had the Beast the other day and really enjoyed it. It was very complex. Probably the only Gurkha that didn't taste like every other Gurkha. The Titan was decent, but not nearly as complex.

According to Gurkha's website, the Titan is supposed to be the stronger one. I have some that have been aging about 3 years. I had a *** load but I traded away a bunch. Same with the Beast. I had a bunch and traded then away. I got them around the same time as the Titans.

This is exciting to read, I just ordered the Gurkha Titan Guerrilla Warfare and Gurkha Factum Cigars with humidor! They come on Tuesday.

Yeah I am seriously considering getting another 10 or 20 just to have and let them rest for a long time. One of my favorite smokes. I just wish the centurian was the same 10 pack deal.

Gurkha is taking a new approach as far as this. The new releases for this year are geared towards B&M's and they lose the crazy packaging. It started last year with Ninja and Viper. I am taking a watch and see what happens approach. The new Cellar Age is a fantastic cigar.

I actually just discovered the Titan. I received 2 in a daily deal with the 10 count herf. I just wanted the case, so I didn't even look at what cigars it came with! But I lit this one up and was impressed! Lots of thick smoke and great smooth flavor, kinda cedary. After trying the one I have left I may have to jump on a 10 pack. I never ever thought I'd buy any Gurkhas ever!

The Titan and the Beast are some of gurkha's best cigars. Throw in their beauty as well.

When you have a Gurkha Titan the band says Titan. I believe the ones cigar.com are selling at the greatly reduced price are seconds. The bands say Titan II. Same great taste and well worth the price but i strongly believe they are seconds.

Gurkhas are highly marked up! How many have you ever seen sold for the msrp?? I've never seen it... So is all the Gurkhas out there seconds?? No! The only brand that goes for such money is really davidoff and that's because from davidoff there is not much of a mark up by the retailer there for they are expensive no matter what! I feel Gurkhas pricing is just to hype them up and make you feel like you got a great deal. I've had many cheaper sticks that we're way better then any gurhka IMO.

Have you got them? I'm wondering since Titan 2 is a different blend. I wasn't aware that there were Titan 2nd's and I know that a while back Ccom had a great deal on Titans and they were the regular titans. I don't know.
