Wait, did I just start the very first Gurkha Bashing thread on Cigar Bums?

:p;):D We need a better emoji package :D
Be nice to Gurkha,just cause the name sounds like a chicken gagging,and IMHO they taste that way too.
I dunno... some of their more recent stuff isn't bad. I rather enjoyed the ghost. I tend to avoid the mass produced online ones though "beast, titan, beauty, widow maker, etc..." just because of construction issues and my personal taste.
I just threw out a large assortment of Ghurkas as well as some "fumas" and other assorted junk I make the mistake of winning at cbid when I started out. About 40 sticks total. They'd been taking up an entire tupperdor. Got a shipment of decent stuff in, didn't want to buy more tupperware, so I tossed 'em. It was a load off my mind.
what type of Fumas,,I've some PDR Fumas that I really enjoy.Nice subtle flavor.
^^^ Those exact ones.
I've heard you have to be careful which Gurkha you choose. The ones available in B&M are "true" Gurkha and probably better than those found online which are labels that Gurkha has sold.
That being said, after smoking a couple online versions (Beauty and Beast) I haven't even tried any others.
^^^ Too much work. I'm not going to purchase from a company that makes my life more difficult. Plus, at this point Gurkha is a laughingstock to me. I'm not going to smoke a stick that's the butt of jokes.
I've only had the online Gurkhas,,,wasn't impressed so I'll save my money for better sticks.Wish you and I had got together earlier Ropey,we could have worked something out on those Fumas.
