Could You Have Stopped This? Vegas Shooting Analysis with Attorneys on Retainer

[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Nub

Posted: 8/7/2009 7:35:49 PM EDT

Has anyone had good experiences with these? I bought and tried three.

Cameroon: Good, but it burst on me 1/2 way through.

Connecticut: Great the whole way through.

Habano: Awful! I did not even finish it. It had an awful burn, draw was fair at best, and the taste made me want to kick myself in the balls. It was so bad I threw it out.

So I am only 1/3on these, but the local tobacconist seems to love them... Any input is appreciated.

Cheers

Don't like the Nub at all.

The Cameroon is decent. I hate the Connecticut and the Habano.

I really love the Maduro's the best

I also had burn problems with the Habano. The Camaroon and Maduro are good, medium flavor smokes that last a long time for the size. They were a good deal, but I noticed they went up a lot recently. Now, for the money, I'll buy other sticks.

I'm not a big fan of the nubs but will take one if it's offered to me.

I tried a Connecticut and it was pretty good for my untrained pallet. It made me a little green though.

Thanks for the input all around. It seems that I am not the only one with issues with these, so that is good and bad.

I tried the NUB Connecticut and smoket it till I couldn't hold it any longer. Great smoke. Haven't tried the others yet.

The Habano is the only one worth a damn IMO...always burned great, strong flavor with copious amounts of nicotine!

The cameroon and connecticut were worthless but I may give a maduro a whirl if I run into one at a shop.

Not a fan of these, ring gauge is too big for me to enjoy. Only one I've tried is the torp habano and that was just ok, nothing to write home about.

Hmmmm,

I kinda like the Habano & the cameroon I had wasn't bad either.

I enjoyed all but the maduro.
I have not had any problems with bad burn or splitting.
I grab a few of them whenever I can get a good price on them.

I've loved every Nub I've smoked. The cameroon is my pick if I had to choose one, but I like the Connecticut wrapper, as well, if I'm in the mood for a milder smoke. I've had some minor burn problems, but nothing that couldn't be tamed.

I had one of their CT's a year ago, I was not a big fan but if given one would smoke it. Not something I would seek out however.

Smoked the cameroon for about 5 minutes before I threw it out. Connecticut sucked too.

Connecticut was way too Connecticutty, and the Cameroon just straight tasted like dog shit. Sorry guys haha.

did not like any of the nubs at all , and for the money will stick with The Edge

I've tried every Nub except the Connecticut, and my favorite is the Maduro. I bought a 5-pack of the Maduros to add to my box, and will probably pick up a case next time. It's a cigar that I'll smoke regularly.

I tried three of the Habano no burn problems. I did not care for the flavor. It was a good cigar just not my cup of tea.

the habano is the only ones that I like , not tried the maduro yet though . a nub habano with a good rootbeer is one of my favorite combos for relaxing

Im a huge fan of the maduro I have only had an issue with the burn on 1 out of an entire box so I think thats preatty good odds on a box. But nub are a great cigar imop
