Smoked my first Nub the other night. Cameroon. I thought it was great beginning to end. Could've used a roach clip to finish it off b/c my fingers were burning and I didn't want to put it down. Took a picture of it standing on its ashes but can't seem to put the pic on hereI i remember seeing posts w/ pictures of the Nubs like this some time ago. Can anyone point me to those posts and pics?

    I smoked my first nub the other night as well. I was impressed!!!! I will have to invest in a box for the Humi. It started perfect and ended perfect as well.

    I'm the Juggernaut, B*tch! nice avatar.

    The Nub Camaroon is a great smoke. It is my favorite of the three original Nub releases. This reminded me that I am out of the cammys and I need to pick up a few more. I have a few maddys resting right now that I hope to try soon.

    The cammies are my favotire Nub, expecially the 466T. I have a few of each size cammie at home. The Maduro is my second favorite followed by the connie then Habano. I'm not a huge fan of the Habano.

    I've only had the Habano torp. I liked it a lot. I use a stainless Snap On pick tool and shove it through the base as it get's down to the fingers. kinda like the old toothpick trick, sans the wood taste

    I love the Maduro, it's got to be my favorite. I also like the Cammie very much, but not quite as much as the maduro. I'd have to say that i think the habano and connie are good as well, but not for the price. If i found them for less than 4 bucks i'd buy them again.

    that's the stickler for me. The price. 6-9 bucks for these nubs make me really seek other blends. If I could get a box of maduros for 70 bucks or so I'd pick it up, but not at the prices I see most of the time.

    My local B&M has some decent prices on the nubs, but like I said the habano and connie aren't worth much more than 4 IMHO. They had the maduro for $6.50, but they guy gave them to me for $6 even per stick. Great shop.

    The NUB Cameroon 460 was one of the first two cigars I smoked.
    I knew nothing about cigars so I finished it in 20mins... It was the one that got me hooked.

    I'd suggest the Nording Torpedo if you want a short smoke in a large ring gauge thats damn good. All the Nordings are damn good IMO.

    eh, that's not bad. I saw a box of maduros for like 140 that's like 6.50 a stick. Maybe I just want a bit more for 7 bucks, then again I am not really a bargain smoker most of the time.... :::::shakes head:::::
