Nub Cigars

**The Korean** · 03-23-2010, 04:02 PM

Like many, I got my hands on some various Nubs when they were introduced, of maybe the dozen I got intially, I think there are still 6-8 still in my cooler. While to me they are not disgusting, when they sit with different company in my trays, I always seem to go for the others. For me they just don't do the trick (and I do think NUBS are a trick), especially for the price. Many more sticks out there for the same range that are more complex and less of a gimick. I'm not a gimick kind of smoker. I like the tried and test, they must fit in somewhere. Welcome

I had picked up a sampler of nubs, guess I fell for the gimmick. They were ok, but I will second (or third?) what others have said about their price point. That being said, my wife thought I liked them and bought me more. They sit in my humidor and they seem to be what friends grab when we're having a smoke.

I agree with most of you. I do like the smoke (honestly), but the price is up there.

I actually bought the Habano 466's for $3.75 a stick from JoeCigar on Friday. My local cigar shop normally sells the 466's (specifically) at $7.00 a stick and that is unreal. The max I pay for any nub is around $4.75. Past that, I visit the other brands.

I'm definitely not an aficionado and that is why I am here. To learn.

Nub's are no value for the $$. The concept is ridiculous, imo.

If you think you have been flamed in this thread, I think you're gonna need a little thicker skin.

I hope you enjoy your stay, or not.

Well Paddy, I'm worried, and have an appointment with the Dr. tomorrow.

Besides, I have always thought I was rather pleasant to most newb's.

Actually you never confirmed with my receptionist so we already filled your appt for tomorrow with someone else. I can fit you in Thursday if that works for you.
