My first Nub

ZAP

Had the Connecticut Nub tonight...some thoughts...

Tough as hell to get started...had a nice middle burn but had to relight to get the whole thing going.

Nice flavor...toasty..

Burned a little uneven

Stronger than I expected...maybe because I haven't eaten much today but this one hit me a little.

Believe it or not the middle third was the best for me...and the final third...the first third was just ok

Smoked it to the nub

Overall it was fine but not one that set my world on fire...

this is actually my favorite NUB. (the connie)

now that I think of it "toasty" does come to mind.

i should pick one of these guys up again.

The connie is verrrry good in my opinion. Try another, maybe the burn problems were a fluke. I also like the Habano and am eager to try the maduro!

I like the connie, have a box of them. I tried a Nub maduro for the first time today, and it was really good. I'll have to smoke another and take some notes as I've had a couple Oliva V's since then. I do remember it was really sweet, some mild spice, medium body. The wrapper was sweet on the tongue from the very start to the end, and the smoke was creamy with maybe a hint of pepper and mocha.

The Connie is my favorite nub.
I like the larger ring sizes better than the smaller ones. (Of course I have a 1/2 box of Conn 354 hanging around, the smallest ring guage)

I split a box of Nub Maduro and I think they need a few more weeks of rest on them before I pull out another one to smoke

I've just had the Habano and the Maduro. Habano is in my top three cigars right now; I'd say it's there with the Oliva V, and the Don Pepin Cuban Classic. The maduro was very good, but I think for the money, I'd rather go with something else, since it's a bit pricey compared to the Habano.

I've been a Connie fan for a while.  It's my breakfast smoke; it and a 4 shot latte'.

I had a box of 354's then got another box of 358's.  Yesterday I got a box of Maduro's.  My NUB-idor is half Maduro and half 358 Connie's and my big humidor hold the 10-15 mixed NUB's that couldn't fit in the smaller dedicated NUB-idor any longer. 

I definitely say try another and hopefully one that's rested a while in a good humidor.  Both are great smokes, burn very well, lots of smoke and overall are very enjoyable.  The Habano and Cameroon are good but just not for me.  I still have some of each I need to smoke so who knows, since they've been resting for a while, they may be even better now.  All are very smooth with great flavor.  On an empty stomach the Cameroon might hurt you though; it did me.  LOL

The Maduro however, is addicting!!  And, depending on where you buy, they are marked way up compared to the others, but no everyone is marking them up like that.  They are a few $$$ more per box but you don't need to be paying anywhere near $5 or more for Maduro's.  It's finding places that have started getting them in finally, or in stock.  My favorite online sources have been good luck.
