What is your personal favorite Nub cigar? I haven't gotten a chance to try them yet and have my reservations, so any input would be greatly appreciated. Have a good one!

    I'm not much of a Nub fan, but I liked the Connecticut the best.

    I'm waiting on the Nub Maduro to be available, but as of right now, I love the Nub Cammy.

    And I, myself, prefer the Nub Habano. So there you have it, we all like different nubs! it goes to show that there is something for everyone!

    Nub Conneticut is my favorite - nice short finish, very smooth and lots of thick smoke. Nub Cameroon is a close second though

    The Cameroon 464BPT is my fave by far. I only smoke the torpedos, as I'm not a real big fan of the extra large ring gauge cigars and the torpedo makes it feel a little smaller.

    My favorite also, but the BPT is 466 not 464.

    Not a fan, too bland for me. I do like the 5 Vegas Miami Knuckle for a similar concept smoke.

    I'm a fan of all of the Nubs. My favorite is the Habano though.

    Sweet. The Cammie is still my favorite but the maduro will probably take second place from the Habano as soon as I smoke another one. The thing is though, after the Cameroon its 1000ths of a point that seperate them for me. I just like nubs.

    Maduro, hands down. I don't even really like the other Nubs, but I would definately buy more of the Maduros.

    i like maduro cigars in general.
    i still think the best nub is the Connecticut. the maduro is good, but it isnt great. maybe its still too fresh. I have another one in my humi that ill smoke in a bit.

    I agree with Kuzi on both points. Nub Conn is the best IMHO.
    Maduro was too fresh, a little rough and I smoked it without any resting time.
    All that = Not a very good smoke....
    Some of the flavors were good, but it was a little harsh, appeared to be hastily rolled and had burn issues most of the way including a wrapper split about half way.

    Nub Connecticut was my favorite and it's not moved on the "favor" scale, but the Maduro created a new position at the top.  I have boxes of each  and although the first 2 Maduro's were fresh off the truck, out of the box at the local B&M (and expensive) and the 3rd, last night, was fresh out of my first box, they were really, really good with no major issues that I expected since they were so fresh.

    Connies will still be my favorite companion to my morning 4 shot latte' and the occational evening smoke when I'm in the mood for one, but the Maduro will be a go to most of the time out side of the morning hours.

    As with any cigar, the are much better after resting.  I've had 1-2 bad ones, bad burn, bad taste but I'd expect that every now and then, otherwise they're really quality smokes.

    I'll say this, the best way to ruin a cigar, and some people do it and never even realize they did it, is to eat or drink the wrong thing.  Don't believe me, eat a handful of salted peanuts in the shell right in the middle of smoking any cigar. Ya, you'll know where the word "****" came from.  Don't ask me how I know.  Surprise [:O]

    I love the Maduro torpedo. I think it was 464 but I am not sure.
