I reviewed the Gurkha Grand Reserve -

Strength: Mild - Medium Binder: Dominican Filler: Dominican Wrapper: Connecticut Shade
Often referred by brand as the "Rolls Royce". I don't know about that, but the Grand Reserve that settled my day was just what I needed!
Smooth and creamy with a shot of licorise as I approached mid way! I wasn't expecting to pick up a distinct flavor like that, but the taste was confirmed as I continued to smoke. The cigar was very well constructed; firm but tender on the touch for an easy draw. Grand Reserve's aroma was reminiscent of pure luxury - deep and flavorful. I didn't want it to end, and nubbed it as far as I could!
This cigar gets a ladies nod....
Jesse from CigarJack talked about a cigar I absolutely fell in love with - the Oliva Serie V Figurado.
I was pleased to discover he reviewed this cigar, as his reviews are always so complete - Jesse picks up every nuance of the cigar he reviews. He is a celebrity! I enjoyed this cigar and agree with you here..
"The smoothness definitely isn’t hype, this is by far the smoothest full bodied cigar I’ve smoked. I could smoke these cigars for the next two years and keep finding new flavors in them. The base is definitely coffee and dark chocolate as described on Oliva’s site, and a bit on the earthy side. The cigar started with a bit of pepper and sweetened up as it progressed with a hint of clove."
Patrick S. from Stogie Guys offers the Quick Smoke: Old Henry Robusto

Patrick S. gives a great thumbs up for this house brand from Holt’s blended by master Don Pepin. He discovers the medum to full flavors of chocolate, earth, and leather. "Like most Pepin cigars it is flavorful yet well-balanced."
His verdict, Buy...
