kuzi16:he is a sales man. ill give them that but he does make some good stuff. iduno. they sound like a bunch old guys that are a bit set in their ways. not that there is anything wrong with that, but gurkha is a newer cigar and it may appeal to some newer tastes. when you have an established taste profile that you look for you tend to want to smoke that. Davidoff and Padron both produce cigars that are very classic in nature. its no surprise that someone that has been smoking all their long lives would like cigars along those lines. when you look at us young folk who have limited exposer to cuban cigars, we would probably tend to like a different style/flavor profile than those who were raised on cubans. on a semi-related note: i was raised on Cincinnati style chilli (mmmm five way) and very few people i know that live outside of that town like it. i bet its kinda like that with cigars too.

tpgoat:I have only had a couple of the RP cigars, and I wasen't super impressed. I had a 1992 vintage box pressed most recently, and found the flavor a lttle overwhelming. Not bad, just to much for me at the time. I hear lots of good things about them and am still willing to give them another try. Any suggestions?
madurofan:P.S. Northerners can't make chili! Just like you can't make BBQ, well actually no one outside of NC and Southern VA knows how to make real pork BBQ. Can I get an Amen!

Any suggestions?If the 92 was overwhelming I'd say you prefer a more mild-medium bodied cigar and should DEFINETLY stay away from RP The Edge and Sun Grown. Look at his Signature Series, Conneticut and Gold. They're all on the milder side. Also IMO the Olde Worlde Reserve and the Decade have a very Gurkha flavor profile.P.S. I have a 10 pack of Gurkha Triple Ligero's coming my way. I haven't been this excited about a Gurkha since, well ..... EVER! Anyone had one of these?
