The nub line of cigars from oliva are excellent smokes. Small in length but large in ring gauge, and packed very tight with tobacco makes for a very long slow burning cigar. You may think that this is a quickie but you will be surprised. I last reviewed the Connecticut and the same praise I gave also applies to the habano.
The habano is a darker version of the Connecticut which is more up my alley. You will still find hints of cedar but with more of a nutty chocolate flavor. There is a maduro nub coming out soon and I wish I would have grabbed the pre-release version that they were offering with the box but decided against it (I’m poor damnit!).
I once bought a box of these (contains an odd 24 which is not normal for most cigars) and smoked them within a months time. This cigar offers a nice draw, slow burn, thick smoke, full flavored taste, and is a good cigar for just relaxing with a beer (wait, aren’t all cigars?).
I give the nub line of cigars from oliva a 9/10 and the habano a 9/10.
