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."

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 ...

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.
