Well, I finally got my hands on a Nub and WOW. Do yourself a favor and buy a box upon release.
I was lucky enough to get an unbanded Nub. Ian the Oliva rep was in town and gave some Nubs out. I wasnt there but a friend was and he gave me one that was given to him. This was a hand me down Nub.
I finally couldnt take it anymore and had it last night. What a great cigar. I usually dont like the big ring cigars but this one just felt right. I dont know what it was but it was perfectly balanced if that makes any sense.
Right away this thing tasted great. It reminded me of the Oliva V but better. The ash was of course perfect as you all know from the pictures and I smoked it all the way down to the end with a toothpick until I couldnt handle it burning my lips anymore. The burn was rounding the cap.
I have said it once and I will say it again. BUY A BOX UPON RELEASE. If you end up not liking them I will buy them from you. GREAT cigar.
Now I just have to try the other two. I usually dont like Connecticut wrappers but I have a feeling this one will be different. I am begging for one of each. Connecticut and Cameroon. If anyone has one of either and are willing to part with it....send it to me and I will bomb you back BIG time with 10 cigars from my collection.
Sam.....GREAT cigar and I can't wait until April.
Pictures coming tonight
