Nub Cameroon 460

I smoked this one on the deck in front of the space heater while paring with a Bud Light. I started with the Nub punch but the draw was extremely tight so I went to the straight cut. It didn't help. The majority of this cigar was not a good experience. The draw was way to tight and I got almost no smoke from it.

When I got to the nub it started to open up a bit and the draw became easier but overall it was too much work. I think this was either over humidified or plugged.

Win some, lose some.

From http://www.milantobacco.com:

The idea for the Nubs came from the theory that a cigar finds its “sweet spot” at the 3 ½- 4 inch point. All “nub” cigars must exist within this window. No “nub” is longer than 4 inches. Further adding to this complex theory, the ring gauges range from 56-66. The result is a range of smokes that have the same amount of tobacco as any Churchill or even Presidente. Unbelievably, they also smoke as long.

The Nub Cameroon Wrapper Cigar: Grown in Cameroon, Africa, this wrapper has a distinct flavor and character. The Cameroon wrapper is thin and toothy, yet it delivers rich notes of cedar and coffee. This Nub medium-bodied cigar is available in 358 and 464T formats.
