Im sorry but a lot of these posts sound like sheep to the reviewer. Smoke the damn thing before you bash it. I’m convinced TGT didn’t like it but some of these posts are drinkin the kool aid. Think for yourself, question authority.

I tried this PURO for the first time. I have to say that this is a cigar with a sure kick and the draw is BEAUTIFUL. Now as we all know (those who have had them) this bad boy is a deff enjoyed with a sweet whiskey, like Jack Red… The Nico keeps you perked up and the note of the whiskey makes it really pop…

This cigar need to be smoked with a glass of strong wine or if you are a straight vodka drinker (stoli is perfect) then you can balance the strength of this stick. otherwise way too strong…

I know more than a handful of folks who have experienced these cigars and loved them. The prelight draw, aroma, flavor, smell and finish have all been considered favorable. So much so, that we’ve all gone on group purchases. Now I don’t know if you consider $198.00 a high price to pay for 33 Churchills (about $6.00 a stick), but we all felt they were worth the price. For those who haven’t tried them , I would personnaly recommend them, but that’s based on my own palate.
Although I have enjoyed and disliked a wide array of cigars, (many enjoyed by the same group of friends who all enjoyed the Warlords) I have learned that surroundings, food, various beverages, and the age of the cigars as well as other factors, will affect the taste. The single most important fact is the individual’s palate. One man’s sugar is another man’s sh**. I, much like Doug, have had a host of Gurkha cigars and I’ve liked them all.
I’d recommend finding a group of guys who wouldn’t mind going in on a box (the most cost effective way to go) , throw the cigars in your humidors and let them age for a bit. I just shared a couple that I’ve had for over 14 months and it was an enjoyable experience for both of us. So much so that we’re considering another box purchase (this time just two of us).

I have liked every warlord that I have smoked. I have never had any troubles with smoking them and they have always been an exceptionally smooth smoke. They are expensive unless you order them by the box. The only Gurkha cigar that I have not liked is the Master Select and I have smoked all of them.

I will never buy another Warlord. Before I even had the damn thing lit, the wrapper had cracked. After smoking about ten minutes I threw it away as the complete wrapper had fallen off. What trash.
