East India Trading Co. Royal Challenge
(2.64)
Royal Challenge is a blend of red and golden Virginias with smooth black cavendish with a delightful rum flavor that's enhanced by sweet spices. An all day type of mixture. Royal Challenge is an especially good partner with an early morning cup of coffee.
Notes: Introduced by K. Hansotia & Co. (which makes Gurkha cigars) in 2015.

Bananas. All I tasted is bananas. This is awful. I can’t even finish the bowl and this tin will be given away or thrown in the trash. Negative 5000 rating for me.

Nope....just not there for me. Very little flavor to me throughout the smoke. Not anywhere close to the flavor of Officers Club. To me....it's a loser.
