An easy, pleasant and flavoursome, no fuss smoke for outdoors. Just light and go.

Great cigar. Caremal flavours through the mouth with a peppery taste through the nose. Great even burn and lasted about an hour. Felt relaxed and calm throughout. Good even burn. Highly recommend.

I agree with the other comments. Good construction. Smooth draw. Leather and nutty tasting notes. Medium strength.
RYJ Wide Churchill preferred though.

In almost 25 years of smoking cigars this is the first review I've left, because this cigar is something truly special. In general I only really love certain Cubans, but have been 'working' hard to get a good knowledge of new world cigars. I've been fortunate enough to smoke a very large number of very high end new world cigars at trade show, many impeccably built, blended and presented, but to my personal taste not even close to as enjoyable as a good Cuban. I've been buying and smoking a fair few new world cigars recently to expand my horizons a bit, including this one.
This is the first and so far only new world cigar I've absolutely loved. I've liked some, tolerated some, and hated more than a few. However this Gurkha stick is by far the best non-cuban I've ever smoked, and in fact one of the best cigars I've ever smoked.
This cigar was simply outstanding and (to me) way better than a whole lot of Cuban cigars. Totally balanced, Nicaraguan flavour comes through without the peppery, earthy harshness often present in Nicaraguan tobacco, a s

These it my smaller pipes fine, and definitely help with grip and protecting the pipe from scratches and teeth-marks. For a while I simply assumed they were too small to use on a lot of my pipes which have the very wide fishtail-type of mouthpiece. But I was wrong, they DO fit, it just takes a great deal of effort to stretch them over the end. Also don't make the mistake I did, and remove your mouthpiece from the pipe before you start wrestling with it, as I ended up damaging the wood of my pipe stem through the force I was applying! 4 stars - because they ARE universal, but I just wish they were a little larger and easier to fit onto larger mouthpieces.
