A few days ago I had the 'pleasure' to smoke the Cain Maduro nub 460 that recently became available on the Dutch market and now I smoked the torpedo version of this Cain Maduro nub, the 464T. This cigar has a price of € 7.50 in The Netherlands.
![]() The cigar looks cool, short and fat with a dark, shiny and oily wrapper that has a few thin veins running over it. The construction feels good and the cigar has a strong barnyard smell. The predraw is good ald leaves a peppery tobacco flavor on my palate. ![]() I taste a bitter coffee flavor with earthy flavors. The flavors are full and I also taste a little bit of chocolate. The bitter coffee flavor disappears quickly. The earth flavor remains with a little bit of chocolate. After three quarters of an inch I also taste pepper, the cigar becomes a bit spicy. ![]() The pepper disappears, again I taste the earthy flavor but this time I taste a bit more chocolate. The aftertaste is a bit spicy. The flavors don't develop at all, and I dislike what I taste. I think that there is at least another 10 to 15 minutes left of the cigar when I toss it, but I just couldn't handle it anymore. ![]() I smoked this cigar for an hour and five minutes before I tossed it, and with what I know now, that was an hour too late. The draw is good, but the burn is crooked. I got a lot of smoke, which is a bit on the thin side. The light colored ash is firm. This cigar is full bodied and full flavored. ![]() Would I buy this cigar again? Never again Appearance: 8 / 10 Construction: 8 / 10 Draw: 8 / 10 Burn: 6 / 10 Smoke & ash: 7 / 10 Aroma first part: 6 / 10 Aroma second part: 6 / 10 Aroma third part: 6 / 10

I liked it, I wish I had bought a box of the maduro ones instead of the habano, which did actually suck, save for about 5 out of the whole 24 that were in the box. So from what I read, this was typical Cain/nub quality. They can make a good smoke, they are rolled at the Oliva factory so some quality is bound to rub off, but you still get ones that smoke like this most of the time.
it was at this point I stopped reading aloud :P haha |
