Default Gurkha Triad

Anyone know of this cigar? It was gifted to me at work, all I know is that, it is expensive is hell. I don't smoke any gurkhas but this cigar is just interesting to me because it's $100 from what I was told.

Such a comedian, Tom! Lol

I don't know... the price point on this cigar just intrigued me. Not everyday someone hands you a $100 black turd.

Someone that enjoys Gurkha will appreciate more than me. I'll find someone worthy of this turd.

No No Tom read the description this ones different!

Intrigued I googled it (and bored obviously)

The Gurkha Triad Platinum is a medium body Maduro. The finest celebration cigar available.
See the FINEST celebration cigar available!



From the Gurkha website
Quote:
The Triad is so special that only 300 boxes were made of this masterpiece for the World.
It appears there are only 6000 of these cigars produced.

Does that make it good, no but it's limited. Sit on it for a while maybe unload it for some decent coin.

Not about money to me, Bill. I would much rather make someone happy by giving this cigar away then to make a few bucks off it.

No biggie... thanks for the info though.

Only $100? Your co-worker must be a real cheapskate.

Gurkhas aren't near as bad as Reyes products or most Drew Estate products.

Think this is the third thread on different sites that I've seen regarding the Triad in the last couple of days

They are extremely over priced, over hyped, and generally taste like something that fell out of a dogs a$$. That's why they aren't well regarded.

Their price points make me laugh. $100+ a stick? Yeah. If you're paying that kind of cash, that is Cohiba Grand Reserva money there, or a couple Behike's.

At least Reyes products are appropriately priced.
