I have one of each wrapper coming that should be here next week (Hopefully ) and I'm looking forward to giving them all a proper voyage to Valhalla (That's where cigars go.....right?!?)

I've heard good things about all of them, but even more so for the Habano wrapper

Definitely try the Connecticut Nub 460. I'm not a big fan of US Connecticut cigars, but the connie. nub is surprisingly good.
The habano is nothing special IMHO.

Just another reason why I love this hobby! Everybody has different tastes which keeps things interesting!

Hopefully I'll enjoy at least one of the 3 different wrappers!

I actually am not a fan of their line but the Habanos Nub was actually a good smoke.

I had a Cameroon a couple of weeks ago. Definitely a good cigar, but I was disappointed in the complexity. It stayed the same through most of the smoke, and had a very uninspiring flavor profile. It was smooth and a decent cigar -- I just expected more from it I guess.
It was very spicy, I thought, especially at the beginning.
Sadly, it got quite bitter in the last 1/3, but that may have been me drawing on it too often.

I'd smoke one again as it wasn't bad, but I might another wrapper first.

i had the same issue with it becoming bitter also.

i was gifted one of each and the con was the best to me. the habano was good but the con just seemed better.

Definitely keeps things interesting that's for sure. Don't get me wrong on the Habanos though. They are nice smokes and somewhat Serie V-esque. It was the only one out of the line-up I bought a box of on launch day. I also have never touched it yet. The Conn. Nub was the only one that really stood out to me since I don't usually like Connecticuts.
Definitely try the entire line! There's also going to be a Nub Maduro I heard.

I was not a huge fan of the cameroon or the habano, but the conn really surprised me. Quite a nice mild, smooth, rich smoke. I was a fan, although due to the size I don't regularly keep them around.

I've tried all three, and the Cammy is my favorite. Tasty, but none of them are easy to smoke -- that's a lot of ring gauge.
