I like all the nubs too. I like their maduros. I like the habanos as well. It's like smoking a smoky sunshine. Haha. That's the nuance I get.

The nubs are great. Cameroon and maduro are my favorites. If I had to choose only one manufacturer to buy from, Oliva would be at the top of my list.

Welcome back Chris. It's been a few months. -
Too many nub type shapes out for me now. Smaller stick, fine....fat a$$ ring guages they can keep. Anything over a 52 is a waste....anything 48 or under is a treasure
-
Speaking of ring guages,........I'm not a hater. LOL They all have a place in my Humi.

Don't want to be the guy to jump on the big ring bandwagon, but I do tend to like the larger ring sizes. Maybe I smoke too fast, but I like the burn and smoke from a 54-60 ring size. I enjoy all varieties, but I am not complaining about the big ring buzz these days.

Im actually glad to hear this Sherm, because so many here like the smaller ones I thought it was the "part time smokers" who kept this craze going. Now that I know some "real cigar men" like em, I feel a little better, lol.rsherman24:Don't want to be the guy to jump on the big ring bandwagon, but I do tend to like the larger ring sizes.

I was never really a big fan of the NUBs...not that I don't like them...I just choose to get other sticks. Though I bought my dad a connecticut NUB for christmas...heck...3-4 years ago? And it's still sitting in my humidor!

I had some NUB Habano Perfectos that started with construction flaws (unwrapping mostly) but after several months in the humi they settled down and were great smokes.
-
Yup nubs are the first cigar I have chosen as a go too. Love the Cameroon, as well as the double maduro. Have not has a bad one yet that it for sure

When these first hit the mainstream they were very popular because of the size and who made them and I like so many others wanted to try every one of them. Realizing that the cigars were young I kind of gave them a passing grade but not something I'd buy soon there after. I bought 2 of the 5 paks and smoked the second 5 pak about 6 months later and what a change of profile..esp. the maduro and habano. I'm a big advocate of resting cigars to let them mature and ferment a bit longer...to get past that first sick period where the ammonia is still present. After 6 months I thought so much of the blend I bought a box of my favorites...Maduro and Habano and keep buying then and will only smoke them with 6 months of rest and longer. My favorite resting time is at 9 month...very smooth and potent at the same time.
