If that were the case, we wouldn't have such iconic pictures.

If I knew what iconic meant, I would be very angry. Or flattered. Or indifferent.

Hi Chutney!
That would be Mr. Lovebiscuit to you.

Well brother, since he is a DB of the highest order, it can slide. Thanks for having my back.

I have not had any issues with plugged Gurkhas and I have smoked rather more than 15.

That said, I have had uneven burn problems on almost every perfecto vitola from Gurkha.

I recall no burn or draw problems with any parejos - no wait, there's a box-pressed toro with green and red in the band, they have boated I think I remember. But the large formats (7.5 inch and up) have smoked very well.

I generally like the flavors Gurkha offers. I think these cigars really have to be bought at auction as the MSRP is just too high.
