I am surprised about all the Gurkha hate... I have had over a dozen of them and have found them to be very consistent and never had one that I didn't like.

And someone here said they took 2 puffs and put it down? Really? Even the best cigars sometimes start out funny.

:td

There's funny, there's rancid, and then there's "If I continue to smoke this I'll probably end up in the hospital / I question the cigars claim that this is made of tobacco."

I'd imagine the two puffer's are in the last category.

Haha, I don't think they are intended to be smoked as cigars, at least not the filler.

Gurkha tripel something or another. It had a sour/metallic taste to it. I guess it was like putting your loose change from your pocket in your mouth:r

Professor Sila ....back in 1997 during the boom. It tasted like nothing, no flavor...well maybe some paper or something.

The White Owl Pineapple that I reviewed here:

Even the Lars Tetens Gorilla Finger and Cremosa Cuba were better than that cigar, or, at least I didn't get chemical burns from the smoke on them.

La Vieja Habana. Terrible. They were like gasoline infused turds.

Once you get past the part about feeling like someone just poured liquid Draino all over your face and tounge, I'd say that the Pineapple White Owl is a decent cigar.

I started smoking cigars about a year ago and really have not had a "worst cigar". Though admittedly have not strayed far from what are generally considered good cigars.

Way back, before I started smoking cigars, I had what must have been hundreds of crappy cigars....though have no idea what they were.... They were the exact reason before last September, regardless of the cigar offered, I probably would have declined due to my previous experiences....


P.S. I was belly laughing at Tom's reviews.... Funniest thing I have read in weeks, maybe longer...

No, not really.

Now, if it were Liquid-Plumr, that's something I could get behind.
