I didn't like any of them, should I vote for the "least worst"?

It's not listed in the poll, but I'm a fan of the Nub Cameroon 358 and 460. They are rich and flavorful without much if any pepper/spice and without the blandness of the Connecticut. Squarely medium body but full of flavor. Anything longer than 4" might veer into pepper and harshness, so the sizes offered seem to really fit the idea of the whole cigar being the "sweet spot".

I agree with shopkins82, I like the Cameroon best, but of your list I would go with the Habano 460

I've nothing of value to add, as I've never had a Cain Nub.....but, I've tried a number of different Nubs and never desired a second one of any blend.....same for all Cains except for the F-lancero.....so, I guess if there were a Cain F Nub Lancero, I might try it.

Default Re: What Cain Nub by Oliva had the best flavor profile for you?

IMHO - I don't think that the Cain blends work well in the Nub sizes. I like most of the Cain line in the more standard cigar sizes (Corona, Robusto, Toro, etc.), with the ‘F’ being my favorite. I have not enjoyed any of the Cain blends that I have tried in the Nub sizes.

I do like to smoke the original Nub line though.
