Gurkha hatin

Doble Maduro -- inconsistent in flavor and construction. First one I smoked was good, the next 3 in a row tasted funny and were rolled poorly.

Nepalese Warrior -- same story. Smoked 1 that was good, and a couple more that tasted completely different from the first one and also burned horribly.

Expedition -- same story. Every cigar tasted different.

Connecticut Reserve -- smoked through a 5 pack, they were OK but I've tasted better mild CT wrap cigars that cost a buck and change.

Centurian -- I actually smoked 3 or 4 of these and liked them. But not enough to get any more.

Do you see a pattern?

Poor consistency in blending
