What are your thoughts of the Winston Churchill's? I have wanted to try them for sometime now.

Thanks,

Have have yet to try a Nub. Are they worth the money? I keep passing on them because for the price of a Nub I can buy a cigar twice the size.

IMHO, Not at all. The Nub seems to be a love hate stick. Either people absolutely love them or hate them. I am on the hate side and I have never met an Oliva product that I did not like.

Ryan, I've smoked the NUB Habano 4x60 and its a nice little smoke. I gave the head a "punch" cut instead of using the guillotine. Its a smooth smoke and can last a long time. You never know until you smoke one. Enjoy

To me the Nubs taste great but I can't stand the huge RG.

troutbreath · 04-09-2009, 05:54 AM

Nubs are a love/hate. I really like the Cammy. Good flavor, and they do last a surprisingly long time. But, the huge RG is tough. That, and the short length put the end of the cigar right in your face once you light it.

I don't turn them away, but I haven't gone out of my way to get them, either. I guess it's time for you to give them a try!

s15driftking · 04-09-2009, 07:34 AM

i love nubs... so does my GF...

But really, the Nub habano is great!

the lancero V is a great tasting smoke, but the ones that i have smoked got really popcorny with about 2" to go. I have been told that it is because i am a slow smoker and that the V lancero needs to be almost hot boxed.

we will see with the next time i smoke one

My box of Flor de Cesar Black Labels from bnb cigars came today. They threw in three singles and a tshirt which I thought was pretty cool. I'm glad they sent a couple of the Red Labels. They have an interesting flavor and a wrapper from Pennsylvania.

Here's the review I did of them: http://www.cigarasylum.com/vb/showth...ght=Flor+Cesar
