Amazing pairing to kick back to after a long day!
I enjoyed this @tequiladonabraham and @gurkhacigars East India Cigar pairing so much last night that I had to make it a repeat night instead of just giving my thoughts on it from last night’s session.
I’ll be honest with y’all, this is a nice clean and delicious pairing!

A nice well balanced flavor of sweet caramel and agave with just the slightest bit of pepper on the back end.
The stick is just a nice medium body smoke with a slight spice to it as well, highly enjoyable!
Perfect combo to kick back and relax to while listening to some @skynyrd– Tuesday’s Gone by a nice fire while watching the clouds role by.
Highly recommend y’all pick up both to add to the bar!
