    I'm never quite sure whether the name of this thread is a declarative, an interrogative, or an imperative.
    for me... declaritive.... maybe imperative.










    YOU!!!! LOVE THE GURKHAS! NOW!

    so ive actually been thinking of bringing back the RP vs Gurkha thread.

    instead ill kinda do this here.

    in my cigar catalog post of the Padron 4000 i noted that i think Nicaraguan and Honduran tobacco though often compared, have a very distinct taste and that they are no where near the same in my mind.

    I like Honduran tobacco better.

    Ive noticed that Rocky Patel tends to use a lot more Nicaraguan tobacco and blend in a style that makes even his non Nicaraguan cigars taste Nicaraguanesque (yes i made that word up)
    Gurkha tends to do the same thing but with Honduran tobacco. since i like Honduran tobacco more it only makes sense that i would like Gurkha cigars more.

    Interesting thought, you may be on to something there. If that's the case, and I see no reason why it wouldn't be, that would explain my fence-sitting position between RP and Gurkha, as I don't have a clear-cut preference between Honduran and Nicaraguan tobacco...although I do love me some Nico puros.

    well you know, I actually ordered 2 of almost all of the gurkhas, but then before I checked out the 5 pack came up, I grabbed that, and got rid of the 2 beasts, I saved 6 bucks and instead of getting 2, get 5. Awesome deal if you ask me. oh and your welcome.. =)

    haha, yeah when I saw your post I figured it was something to jump on. Even though I've been trying to limit my cigar purchases, this was a little too good to pass up. I only ordered one cigar to get the Gurkha offer, so at least I'm not dropping $100 or more.

    yeah, that's a good rule, something I've been a little bad on lately.

    I just ordered and the first time i went to check out i made it past the Beast without adding. But then I added more to the order and couldn't make it past them the second time. Needless to say I have 5 Beast on the way. I think I need a humi just for Gurkha's

    You don't need all 5 of those Beasts, ebit... and I've never tried one. So it makes sense that we should work a shipless trade, since we're in the same city :)

    I've been eying those for a while. I'd like to give them a go. Thanks for the mini-view.
