A bad cigar. If you can really call it a cigar.
Jul 09, 2018
Recently tried no less than four of these Raptor Robustos. They all had knots that prevented a good draw, even after kneading them a bit in attempts to release the knots. I would not even give the rest of the bundle I purchased for not wanting to insult the receivers of my "gift".....

Erratic
May 15, 2018
I just finished enjoying the last of my bundle. If the whole bundle, or even half for that matter, smoked the way this last one did it could quite possibly be my daily smoke. Unfortunately they did not all smoke the same. Some were ok, some disappointing, some very enjoyable. The differences were erratic enough that I don't see myself purchasing these again.

This is a nice, mild cigar. Hints of white pepper. Well-constructed -- as you can expect from Ghurka. Great for those times when you want a quick smoke. I will buy again. I often go to my humidor thinking about something else and change my mind when I see these.

Good smoke when you don't have much time
Nov 05, 2017
When you don't have much time but want a tasty smoke, the Raptor Rubusto is a nice one to have on hand. I have encountered very few defects, canoeing, etc. I tends to burn evenly (knock on wood).

First time with a Gurkha
Apr 17, 2017
Have always wanted to try a "Gurkha", these had a special deal. So I gave them a shot. Not what I was expecting. Flavors seemed off and keep getting a mouth full of tobacco during my smoke. I have used a punch and a "V" notch cutter. If you are tempted by the special offer of the knife, don't bother.

Ghurka Good Buy
Mar 23, 2017
The Ghurka Raptor is decent smoke at a very good price point. There were no flaws to report only that the flavors are not robust - they're more subtle, but present. I found the cigars smoked much better when housed for a couple weeks in a properly humidified box. Not unusual for any cigar. Would I recommend them: Yes. Would I purchase them again: I already have!
