    Default Gurkha Cigars

    I recently won a couple of Gurkha's on Cbid. I'm now curious as to the other cigars that Gurkha makes, from looking online and through the CI catalog, it seams like they make a lot of different brands under the Gurkha label. From what I gather, Gurkha makes:
    Boer
    Centurian Double X
    Class Regent
    Doble Maduro
    Expedition Series
    Genghis Khan
    Grand Envoy
    Grand Master
    Legend
    Master's Select
    Platinum
    Grand Reserve
    Regent Nepalese Warrior
    Vintage Series

    Ok, am I missing any from Gurkha? I have decided to try to try them all. Also, has any one else had any of these and can offer their insights on them? (Strong, medium, mild, full flavored, over-priced dog rocket, etc.)

    I have been eyeballing these for quite sometime, but never seem to be lucky enough to win them. I am curious to hear the responses that will be posted....Thanks for asking the question...

    I've had the Master's select (nothing to write home about) and the legend. The legend was a torpedo which I enjoyed the flavor and strength but it had constant burn problems which took away from the enjoyment.

    I've smoked the Doble Maduro, and the Nepalese Warrior. I really enjoyed both of them.
    The Doble Maduro has a tendency towards a flaky wrapper, but it has not been to a degree that has detracted from the enjoyment at all. Full flavor, medium strength.
    The Nepalese Warrior is also full flavor, medium strength.
    Both of these have, as of late, found a recurring role in my rotation.

    I have had the Legend, Double Maduro, Regent, Master Select, and Anchient Warrior. I really enjoyed the Legend, Regent and Anchient Warrior. The Double maduro, while not a bad cigar did not really do it for me. I thought it was a bit dry so that may have been the problem. The Master Select was good but not something I look to get again.

    Also a not on the Ancient Warrior . . . the ones on CBid are completely different that the ones you would get from your local shop. I have heard the CBid are not that great whereas the other is very good.
