I'm not going to try to impress you with my un-refined pallet, or inability to write poeticly so here goes. I procured 3 of these recently and sold 2 of them, keeping one for myself. I've enjoyed every Gurkah I've ever smoked, but this was different. My review on this is great taste, full smoke, good draw and it kicked my butt. I've smoked several of the vintage shaggy foot, but the pre-embargo tobacco is noticable in both flavor and strength. I loved it and am now a little sad I sold the other 2. I do enjoy sharing the wealth though. If you have a chance to smoke one or come across any, be sure to grab a couple. That's that.

In that I am the one who procured the other two, upon receipt, I will allow them some "welcome home time" in the humi (as I have no idea what impact USPS or UPS may have had on them fropm a storage perspective) a few days and I will by next week, post a review.
