Nub Cigars

[JJKJR]

FNA, I guess I missed the boat with Nubs but after last night, my thoughts are a bit different. I'm surprised by the times you gave me. That cigar really only lasted 20 minutes. So am I reading that the cigar called a "Nub" is marketed in name only by Oliva with other companies making a shorter style cigar, just not called a Nub?

Yup. Nub is an offshoot of Oliva/ST with 7 regular production blends(Connecticut, Cameroon, Habano, Maduro, Cain F, Cain Maduro, Cain Habano), as well as a few more limited blends(Nub Dub, Cain Daytona, USA, etc)

The size caught on, so other companies are trying to catch on to it. I wouldn't really read into the smoking times posted though, everyone smokes at a different rate, and for the most part those numbers seemed pretty elongated for the Nub and severely shortened for the "normal" sizes(I smoke fast and still get at least 90 mins out of a churchill)
