I didn't want to say anything until I was selected but I can now announce that I am a member of the Gurkha Cigars Tasters Club.
About 2 months ago I came across a thread in the Cigarbid.com forum about Gurkha looking for people to review honest feedback on their cigars. I applied with a sample review and a link to the OCCS website and I guess they were happy with what I can offer. I was adamant that because I would be getting free samples, it would not necessarily deserve a positive review. I will be providing honest feedback on the cigars I receive.
From what I understand there are approximately 100 of us around the country. We will each be getting 2 cigars a month to review so once I start receiving them, expect several one cigar "tasting notes" on this blog. They will not be a full review (unless I purchase an additional 4 and then review) mind you, only tasting notes. Also, if there are any Gurkha events locally, I will be attending them.
I just wanted to give you all a heads up.

Wow! That’s pretty exciting news, man—congratulations!! Totally bad ass.
ReplyDeleteI’m very much looking forward to reading about what they send you.
Thanks for sending Gurkha a link to our group’s website when you applied. I’d like to think this may have helped you get in…
