Gurkha Mil Spec

I was straightening out my humidors, I have about 600 cigars in various containers, because everything was mixed up, and I found a Gurkha Mil Spec. I don’t like most Gurkhas but smoked this to get rid of it and really really liked it. I’ve searched but can’t find any anywhere and believe they must not make them anymore. I’m now thinking they may make the same cigar under a different name. Do any of you know which Gurkha is closest to that one?

Patrick Lake Zuric II, every place I’ve looked they’re out of stock.
I would hop on that! Gurkhas are almost never on sale.
Here ya go.

Tempting, very tempting...
No, they’re out of stock there too. Hoping someone can lead me to something similar.
@Rhamlin has loads of gurkhas.
CI has them for 66 bucks/10
Your search may be a lost cause. Not because you won't find any, but because you will find them and be disappointed. I'm forever falling for one stick or another, only to be disappointed by inconsistent "enjoyment" of the same cigar. Sometimes "it" happens when I'm trying a cigar for the first time. That's the worst time for "it" to happen. "It" means the experience of a cigar smoking excellently, and the subsequent desire for more. But the next one disappoints, and also the next one. And by now I'm convinced I'm dealing with luck, magic or voodoo and I'll never be able to buy more of "it".
^^^ GREAT post, Bob. I thought the same thing but couldn't find the words; the "it" is a perfect way to describe what OP is after, and what we often succumb to. In golf, we use the phrase "that'll bring you back" after a great shot to mean "you'll keep playing the game because of that great shot, even if you only hit a great shot one out of 100... similar thinking with the OP's Gurkha. Hope springs eternal, but rarely can we recreate that magic. There's too much variability in cigars, from year to year, from box to box, and even from stick to stick within a box sometimes, to guarantee the same love we had with that one stick. And don't forget the age the "it-stick" had; you may find the Mil-Spec, but will it have the age on it?
Lastly, there are sooooo many great cigars being made today to get wrapped up in chasing one stick from the past.
And do we really trust Gurkha’s attention to blend details.....?
This is the correct answer.
That much? For a Gurkha? Damn.

That's a great deal, MSRP is $19 each.
And to think I caught **** over looking for camachos 😂😂😂
