We could have had it for $21.50 an inch.

I know two real live people who have smoked that $40 soaked in cognac gurkha thing, and both told me it was unsmokable.

Imagine getting a short ways into a $161 gar and having to stub it out .


Actually, a friend of mine won one of these cigars in a poker tournament sponsored by Gurkha. He was shocked at how it smoked considering its cost. Said it was pretty plain, and the thing smelled like blueberries when it was lit...
