They were supposed to be "Mild". They are NOT. The "Draw" is a physical effort. They burn "Unevenly". They are NOT up to Thompson standards I've know for over 30 years.

I’m new to cigars so keep that in mind. I really like these. Very mild. Never had to relight. Plenty of flavor for me. Flavor stayed consistent throughout. I’m planning to buy more. I used the Thompson selection tool to find these. Might use it again to find something new.

this was my first experience with a Gurkha product and I was very pleased. Out of the wrapper, it smelled good and looked like a very expensive cigar, the wrapper was smooth and the fillers seemed evenly packed inside. The draw was easy with plenty of smoke coming through. I burned down very evenly too. The flavor profile was very mild to my taste. I would recommend to anyone who likes a real smooth, mild Connecticut cigar.

I'm not typically a fan of Ghurka cigars but these are very good. Will order more in the future. Would recommend them to anyone who wanted a good cigar that is not over powering. Good consistent draw, white smoke, subdued flavor, and long lasting. Every single one of them only had to be lighted once and burned evenly from start to finish. Ghurka has definitely hit a home run with these!

These came nicely packed, aesthetically they looked very nice. First impressions were good. Opened one up, cut it, toasted it and fired it up. The first inch or so was decent, nice draw, ok burn and not bad flavor. From there things changed. The flavor of this cigar for me is not very good once you get in to it. It starts to get bitter with in 10 to 15 minutes of lighting it. The pack is inconsistent, one stick will draw loose, the next one you have to run a poker through it. My biggest complaint is the band. I have smoked 8 of the 16 and EVERY one has had excessive glue on the band ripping the wrapper and a few times the binder with it when removing. I am curious, is this a Thompson Cigar only offering? I have decided to give these away when casual smokers ask for a cigar. I can't recommend them for purchase.

Just received a box of these cigars. One cigar had an obvious wrapper defect. It was buried in the bottom layer. I believe this was intentional. Since I have many choices as to what cigars to buy, and from whom I buy them, I will not buy these again, and I will not be buying cigars from Thompson any longer. They did offer me a $10 gift card for my trouble, but I feel the problem reflects quality control problems greater than $10 can correct.

This is an excellent mild smoke. From the very beginning it lured me in with its beautiful golden wrapper, and the taste is excellent. Possibly the best mild I've ever smokes. Super creamy with notes of oak, vanilla, and a toasty tobacco core. The quality you get for the price of these sticks is amazing. I don't know if there's a better deal to be found in the cigar world. These are going in my normal rotation, and I'm not even a regular smoker of mild bodied cigars.

The Masterclass is visually appealing as a result of its veiny appearance and ornate label. You feel as though you're in for a treat just from the just the look and feel of this stick. It emits an ample amount of smoke that provides an aromatic smell that cigar lovers will savor during each draw. The stick provides a creamy flavor that will pair well with your favorite cup of Joe during the first half, but transitions to a dark roast towards the end. Good construction and near perfect draw with a straight cut. I rated it with only 4 stars (I actually would have rated it lower had the rating system provided a more granular scale) because the stick presents a bit of bitterness and harshness during the latter half. All in all a recommendable stick that can be enjoyed by all levels of cigar enthusiasts to the nub.
