Size: (6" x 50) Toro
Wrapper: Natural
Strength: Medium
Personal Rating: 4

Smooth, creamy, and surprising... this is how I would describe this cigar. As always Gurkha has delivered another masterpiece in their cigar lines. There is some spicy to it and it's pretty strong even though I rated it "Medium". ...
Size: Toro (6.0? x 50)
Wrapper: Nicaraguan Corojo
Strength: Medium to Full

Honestly for the price I was expecting more. I happen to try one of these because a friend was gracious enough to buy me one. For me, it became very bland very quickly. It started off spicy ...

Romeo y Julieta – Bully
Published Sunday, January 18, 2009 By underthegun. Under Cigars, Romeo y Julieta Tags: Cigars, Romeo y Julieta
As always Romeo y Julieta cigars are top shelf material. The Bully is one of my favorite stogies by this legendary company. They're strong, they burn slow, and have a taste that did knock my socks off. Of course I was wearing house slippers at the time ;)
All in all ...

And just a quick side note, they go ...
Though it's a milder cigar, considering it's by Gurkha, this is one amazing cigar that strengthens as you smoke it. It has a very creamy smoke and that great taste you can expect from Gurkha cigars.
The first time I smoked one of these I had just finished a nice steak ...
