HUGE Gurkha fan here as well. I have a great, original Gurkha tin plate hanging in my basement. I just bought some Legend Anniversaro sticks and agree, some burn issues but a solid cigar. My fav so far is the Regent, absolutely perfect stick IMHO. I have not tried the others you mention but hopefully will do soon :skew:

I would be interested to know how you paid for these sticks and where did you get them?

will do, they should be here by Saturday, Monday at the latest

I did have two of he Gurkha Legends. Nt bad, the first had an uneven burn and the second started to as well but I caught it early. I LOVE the size/shape and it has some really nice spice on the backend of it. I will let the rst sit for a month or so and see how they taste later this summer

Looking forward to my first MAster Select

BTW - the Regent is my absolute FAV Gurkha line
