Current Featured Cigars - July 2025
Our 9-member Cigar Rating Panel smokes over 200 cigars a week, rating each for proper construction, appearance, aroma, smoke volume and flavor profile. We smoke a lot of bitter, harsh, improperly aged and poorly constructed cigars so you don’t have to! Less than 5% of those considered ever make it to you.

The Gurkha legend kicks off with British colonial soldiers in India who, inspired by the fearless Gurkha warriors of Nepal, started rolling cigars using local tobacco—some of it even grown in the Portuguese colony of Goa. These smokes became a favorite among expats, but as the empire faded, so did the cigars… slipping into myth. Fast-forward to today, and the Gurkha brand keeps that mystique alive in full force. The Gurkha Centurian in your...
