Gurkha Double Maduro ~ Toro

You sure that's not a torplanceafigurbusto?

So, I was digging around looking for the Gurkhas from a sampler pack I bought a while back. I found a couple with similar cedar sleeves; however, neither looks like the one you reviewed. Gurkha makes so many shapes and styles that I can't keep track. *sigh*

Anyway, nice review. Let me know if you want to try a couple of these sample sticks I have.

Luckily for you, some soul did try to keep track ...

Holy Moses, Craig! It's worse than I thought...
Thanks for the link.

Had one of these tonight, from that same mazo, so they've got a good 1.5 to 2 years on them.

It wasn't nearly as good as I described on the review. Maybe age isn't doing these guys any justice. It was a solid "meh" to me now. Perhaps my tastes have changed, or it was a bum stick, or my taster is off tonight.

Down in the last 3rd, only for a short period, did I get any discernable chocolate notes, or pretty much anything besides a blandish oil taste.
