Managed to tear the wrapper a little bit today grabbing something else out of my overstuffed humidor. Been sitting on it for a little bit so I thought, “Sure, what the hell.”

Mahalo @option240 for this Lincoln Log!

Had a Gurkha Beauty because I didn't know any better. Made it halfway through and said F it. Lesson learned
The original release of these(15 or 20 years ago) were actually really nice. They weren't worth what they cost but good none the less. The ones being sold today at 75% below MSRP lol....aren't even good yard gars.
This is a prime example of why Gurkha has a bad reputation.

It was one of two sticks that have rested long enough in my humi to smoke in the cold...should have gone with the Oliva instead! Thing tasted like chemical treated lumber wrapped in dried out leather!:hungover:Kept hoping it would change for the better but noooope

Agreed. That and it's a different cigar in the B&M from what you can order
