I know some of you enjoy cigars - share!

Here's one I haven't enjoyed in quite some time. This has easily had at least a year in my humidor, and being a Connecticut, it wasn't going to be a flavor bomb in the first place. It smokes almost too loose, which I attribute to the time, but this turned into one of the nicer smoking experiences I've had in a while.

Didn't require a single relight or touch up, still flavorful, nice and smooth, and the size turned out to be the perfect thing for me. I'm in the middle of calibrating some things with my 3D printer, and this allowed me plenty of leeway to tinker with that, come back, and pick this up again without any issues. I was digging through some smokes, and until I stumbled upon this one, I was going to be choosing between a Flor de Oliva or a Diesel that I'll try to show later on.

All in all, while Nubs tend to look like "short smokes", I promise that they're anything but - UNLESS - you hot-box it like you're smoking a cigarette. These really do relate closely to larger sized smokes around the same ring gauge. I think this one is a 4x54, which should be similar to a Robusto. The time on this was right around an hour+ and was a worthy smoke for the evening. For those who wish to try it, I'd wholeheartedly recommend this for a morning coffee smoke as well. Most Connecticuts do quite well in that setting, and this is no exception.
