Bdawg says:  This is the third blend of Gurkha's Cellar Reserve line.  And it is my favorite.

The wrapper is reddish brown and well constructed.  The draw has just the right amount of resistance, producing a gray ash.  The flavor starts with a smooth, sweet, Indian spice, and then finishes a little stronger with cedar and black pepper.  The burn is slow, but just slightly uneven.
