Gurkha Micro-Batch - Liga VH-7 Box-Pressed Toro

I am not a very experienced smoker and I will admit that I can't pick up all those little flavors so take this little review from the angle of a true new guy.

This was an amazing smoke. Fairly strong, but a nice way to move up to fuller body smokes. I tasted what I would call a leathery/peppery taste throughout. I was also able to pick up on something that I would say was a dark coffee like taste around the second third or so. I did have to re light at one point for no apparent reason which I found very odd, also had a very flaky light gray ash that would only stay on for about half an inch or so which was quite odd from my experiences. Overall I loved the smoke and can't wait to spark up another one after letting them have a nice rest in the humi for a little bit. Try one.

Thanks for the review. I've experienced more burn issues with Gurkhas than any other cigar.

Though I generally like their flavor, I've found Gurkha's construction quality to be very inconsistent.

Nice review! I have to admit that I like the Gurkha's too although I have not had one of these ones yet. All of the Gurkha's I have had too, have had burn troubles too. Thanks for the review. Roger.
