Gurkha micro batch

The Cank

So These we re on the daily deal about a month ago so I picked them up. I must say they are one of the worst tasting cigars I have ever tried ! I was not pleased. Draw was ok but if I didn't stay on it it would go out and it just had a "dirty" taste to it..... I now have 3 of these left...... I think I will give them away to people that will not know the difference.... thats bad I know

Sucks to hear you didn't enjoy them. Which blend was it? I had the TBP-1 recently and I found it to be quite tasty.

Gurkha Micro-Batch TPB-1 Box-Pressed Lancero. The same ones as you had... hhmmm now this makes me wonder... maybe I had a bad one. I have a few more. I will try another one before I discard it as junk... It just seemed to me that there was not a lot of flavor and the flavors I were getting were kind of dirty tasting. I know that does not explain much... I can't put my finger on in but I really did not care for it.

Mine had about two months rest in the humi, so that could make a difference. I got cedary sweetness with a little bit of spice when I had it.

 

On the other hand, it could just be a case of personal preference. For me, I am not the biggest fan of Pepin cigars since they are so peppery, but other people won't smoke anything else.

 

If you still don't like the TPB-1 after trying another, perhaps I have something I can trade with you.

I never tried the tb1, had 2 of them, the churchill and torp, actually bought boxes. I like them, not the best but good for the price.

I'm not surprised you didn't like the sticks, I haven't had 1 ghurka yet that I liked. I really thinking about getting rid of the rest of the ones I got.

some people just don't like them. But also they probably have the largest list of cigars out there and there has been a good number of them I wasn't impressed with.
