I seek Retribution!

Actually, I already have Retribution...Gurkha Retribution. The tin description says it's "a luxury blend of Turkish, Latakia and matured Virginia. It was recently gifted to me. It's a bit understated, but it seems sweet, a bit salty with moderate smoke production. It's heavy on the Virginia for sure and pretty light on the Latakia. Surprisingly,  no one seems to have reviewed it either on tobacco reciews or elsewhere. Any thoughts about this blend?

Yeeesh, Jim. Ya had me goin' there for a minute. 

"I seek retribution ," struck me as so..... I dunno.... Old Testamentally threatening.

But, I get it now.   ;-)  <smiley face>

Sounds like a great title for a low budget Dolph Lundgren action film. You had me fooled Jim, I was all set to read a rousing movie review.

Interesting....

Only review I've seen so far is at P&C.   https://www.pipesandcigars.com/p/gurkha-retribution-pipe-tobacco/1509226/

Not even reviewed at TobaccoReviews. I'm amazed. Nor at LuxuryTobaccoReviews. No reviews on Google either.

I know Gurkha cigars (and apparently, so did slick Willy and Monica) but this stuff is new to me.  It's turning out to be a darn nice blend 3-4 bowls in. 

 @motie2 and @ghostsof pompeii ...I got you to take a peek at my post though!  It's my new ploy to get other posters to do the same.  Sort of an advertising trick, I guess.
