Default Nub Plus....Are you kidding me?

Got an email today from cigar.com touting the newest in cigar technology from Oliva, the Nub Plus cigar. Take the Nub Habano, add an inch to the length and voila!!!, the newest Nub. I can't see this as anything new or exciting and no way would I call a 5 inch cigar a Nub. What are your thoughts?

I guess a 5" nub is all what your prospective is.

Sounds like a new craze, the Nub Robusto. Could be an earth shattering concept. (sarcasm)

I wish they'd be more open minded. Not everyone likes jawbreakers like I do. And try a new blend.

It should get a new, but similar, name.

I suggest "The Flub".

Maybe they can figure a way to put a whole tobacco plant in one cigar, and call it "The Shrub".

what would you call a NUB on Viagra. Cause thats what, I'd call it. Isn't it defeating the whole NUB purpose.

A NUB on Viagra would have to be called "A CHUB".

I have to agree that adding another anything to the length truly defeats the original purpose of this cigar.
