I have some Class Regent torps from 2006 that I enjoy every now and then.
A class "A" NC or CC, no...but quit smokable for a change of pace when they have napped for a bit.

I think everyone knows they are way way overpriced. That being said, with patience you can get sticks like the titan for ~$5-6 and that at price, I think the titan is a fine cigar and I like it. I have never smoked a Gurkha though worth much more then $6... I think when you judge you need to consider the price most of us would pay for one, not the MSRP. I have not bought any for a while though (at least not for myself) and I recently traded the majority of them away, so they are definitely out of my regular rotation, but I might pull a titan tonight to honor this thread

My brother is a huge Gurkha fan, me - not so much, but I haven't tried a lot of them either. To each their own.

There are too many Gurkhas, but there's bound to be
one or two you'll like.

I like the Ancient Warriors and the Nepalese Warriors,
from time to time. I stock the AWs, but just get the
Nep. Warriors from cbid, when I want a fiver around.
Haven't found any Gurkha worth over $5.

The Royal Brigade and Centurion perfectos are OK, too.
Nothing to write home about, but a nice change of pace.
