    Have you guys tried these particular Gurkhas, yet (Cask Blend, Cellar Reserve, Yakuza)?  I'll be the first to admit Gurkha can be hit or miss, but these 3 blends are bullseyes. Also the weekly deal this week (Decadent Dozen V) is part of March Madness. Pretty nice lineup in my humble yada yada.

    Had the cellar reserve 18 last week. While it burned great and had no construction issues, I wouldn't buy it. The flavor was decent till the last 3rd. Just much better sticks out there for the price.

    I stockpile La Palina, tats, Viaje, crowned heads, romacraft, and a few others. I have been really enjoying Ezra Zion lately also. Love the Caldwell eastern standard (need to restock). I also keep some connies for the mornings. I also enjoy the my father stuff (who doesn't) and AF. Black Label Trading makes some really good stuff as well. I know so,e of these brands you guys don't carry but the boutiques are hot right now and I think you guys are missing out.

    Whether the above statement is correct or not, I think we can assume that most members here were underwhelmed to see not one, but three Gurkha options on the March Madness deals.

    Too many of us have been burnt by the brand to convert now.

    Just my $0.02

    Each day of Daily Cigar Deals for March Madness has a brand theme. Friday was Drew Estate and Diesel.  Today is Man O' War and Gurkha.  Tomorrow will be...

    "need to restock" usually means low or has available space - I thought?

    $8 apiece for either of those sticks is a steal.

    I'll say. This forum is dangerous; hopefully I can sneak it past my wife who thinks one _can_ have too many cigars.

    If you'd like, I can buy them for you and sneak them in with your coffee shipments.  o:)

    All 3 look good. Wish I had the extra fundage.

    Remember when they had the 5 pack of Reconquistas and the 5 of Ovals? I think I still got 2 of each.

    The picture got changed a little early. That's today's deal on #3.

    Number two and three look good to me today. I can do without the maduro in number one, but love the FDLA.

    Bit on the DPG Blue /  New World yesterday, almost but not quite regretted it today.
