Horray Me!!!

SmokinApe · 01-03-2009, 09:26 AM

I've been selected to review 8 cigars for Cigar Magazine's Summer 2009 issue... But there is always a catch, the article is called "The Many Faces of Gurkha."

MikeyC · 01-03-2009, 09:28 AM

Talk about good news/bad news!

No good deed goes unpunished!

md4958 · 01-03-2009, 09:30 AM

could have been worse... The title could have been "Flavored White Owls, a retrospective"

SmokinApe · 01-03-2009, 09:32 AM

lol, I really don't mind... I've smoked lots of them and hope to gain something from the experience... Tho I would have preferred "A Profile of Pepin Pepper Power."

We might just have to do that... I am kidding, I actually like a few Gurkha's, the Nepalese Warrior for example... I just haven't smoked one in a while

...

icehog3 · 01-03-2009, 10:37 AM

Congrats?

blugill · 01-03-2009, 10:38 AM

I enjoy the Nepalese Warrior quite a bit!

i got a deep six sampler off the devil site, not my cup of tea

Sr Mike · 01-03-2009, 11:01 AM

Cool, I will be on the lookout for the article. I can get passed the stories and the dress boxes and enjoy their cigars. I also only buy them when I can get a good deal.
