    And where's the maduro at. I know they have some pretty good maduro wrappers. Just try a a G robusto maduro or a G Special G maduro.

    I highly doubt the cigar being in its sweet spot right off the bat. Maybe it hits it sooner than a typical shape due to the amount of tobacco actually being smoked yet not burning down the stick to far. If anyone has one sitting at home or can get one and has a small scale you can figure out how much tobacco is in it compared to other style smokes. Just weigh the Nub than weigh a few other sizes. Which ever is closest is your match.

    According to the CI site the 4" x 60 is equivalent to a6.75" x 50 churchill. I'd love to try a couple of the 460 Connecticut.

    Take a look at the CI nub info here.

    Apparently simple math isn't CIs strong suit. The Nub has about 85% the volume of a Churchill.

    Also, it only has approximately 75% of the surface area making it require less expensive wrapper leaf.

    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.
