Smoked the Hab last night. Great balanced cigar with plenty of flavor. Construction, burn, and draw were all nearly perfect. Although short, this was a good 40 minute smoke.. ...nubbed the nub.

somehow i get the feeling these will burn very hot and leave a harsh after taste. maybe this isn't true because of the thickness but still i gotta imagine its a hotter smoke than a churchill

I have smoked some. Nice cigar, burn for a good while to.

Lots of flavor/smoke. Truth be told they were not "hot" until the nub, no pun intended.

So my question is would you rather have the full size Olivia or the Nub?

Interestingly, with the exception of the first few puffs, it was pretty constant throughout flavor wise. The strength did change-up though. I do not buy the "sweet spot" theory myself. But this was a good cigar.

I know you directed this to Guado, but I will chime in. I tend to lean toward smaller smokes. I rarely have time for a Churchill so I would go with the Nub. Plus this (the Habano line) had a better and fuller flavor than a standard line Oliva.

I will post my opinion on the Cameroon in the next week or so...

Had a cam. today. It had the same flavor all the way through. Also it wasn't an hour smoke, more like 35 min. or so. To me, it really seemed like an average Cam. cigar that was cut in half. Nothing special. I'm going to try the Conn. in a day or two and the Habano is back ordered so I'll try one later.

All in all, nothing special. Sweet spot? Nope, like I said, it is a cigar cut in half.
