I might be going against the crowds, but the Nub series does nothing for me. It was worth a try out of curiosity but I did not find them to be a better or more flavorful cigar then a regular robusto, torpedo, petit corona, etc.
However, taste is highly subjective . . .
I had some Cameroons this weekend and they were pretty tasty – I mostly am into these for the time savings vs re-burning cheaper cigars!
Everyone has their own tastes, so Nubs aren’t for everyone–and neither are Cohibas, Padrons, or Fuentes.
I enjoy the entire Nub line to some degree. The Habano is powerful and flavorful; the Cameroon is a really good medium-bodied smoke, although not in the “great” category; the Connecticut is quite simply one of the most flavorful and complex mild cigars on the market, putting big names like Montecristo (not the Cuban variety) and Davidoff to shame for half the price. Again, just one man’s opinion.
I’ve had all three and for me the Cameroon is the best of the bunch. The Habano and Connecticut were good, but nothing special. To me the Cameroon can stand on it’s own against most big name Cameroons on the market.
