Re: Gurkha hatin
 

you know, i've heard this statement alot. i believe that gurkhas are not worth their MSRP prices. i would pay in the 6-8 dollar range for them...

then again... most gurkhas can be had for 3 bucks a CBID

Re: Gurkha hatin
 

I think alot of the "hate" comes from the shameless marketing. I will say this though...my second love when I was introduced to cigars was the Gurkha Legend. I'm not sure if I would still like em...haven't smoked a Gurkha in over 2 years but at the time I really liked em.

Re: Gurkha hatin
 

I find them inconsistant and lousy.
I have a bunch of Gurkhas and I'm putting a little time on them. That might help, but I doubt it. It's hard to fix something that's totally screwed up from the git-go.
I get the feeling from Gurkha that they're far and away more interested in selling a brand than a good cigar.

Re: Gurkha hatin
 

I can actually agree with that. If I had to choose between a Hansotia product and a Reyes product, I would go with a Gurkha. :hn

You know, I hadn't really stopped to consider this thread before today. I read through the first 2 pages, and decided I wasn't going to read any more.

BUT... I did manage to work up an opinion on the subject in what I read.

1) What's the point of the question?
2) While I enjoy reading reviews of cigars, not everything others love, will I love. Nor, by the same token, will others find all the things I love something they enjoy.

I love fishing, my wife hates it - but she loves to eat what I catch. A pretty good combination if you ask me.

So my opinion boils down to this. Smoke what you enjoy, and enjoy it! You can only please your palate, do it with whatever suits your tastes.

your opinion is one of 1000 similar opinions in every gurkha discussion thread.
