Met Sam and had a Nub

[gunbuyer76]

I had the opportunity to meet Sam and smoke a Nub Hbano this evening at a shop south of Pittsburgh. First off, I was skeptical, I mean a short fat cigar that was supposed to smoke for a long time? Well the Nub answered my questions. The Nub Habano 460 I smoked was an amazing cigar, It lasted 82 minutes (about 55-60 longer than I expected, and I tend to power herf) The Nub had a lot of nuances in the flavor, Leather Spice, and coffee notes(might be from the expresso vodka) and a base flavor somewhat close to an Oliva series V, Similar Habano wrappers are where this comes from I think. But the smoke was a medium full bodied, with great flavor. This is a great cigar, but more importantly Sam is a good guy I enjoyed shooting the s*&^ with him for a few hours, his knowledge goes beyond the Nub and Oliva lines, into different brands, and he has an excellent knowledge of the growing and harvesting of tobacco as well. I can't repeat anything I said there, man code, but he opened my eyes into the business even more. Thanks Sam

Sam is busier than a one legged man in an ass kicking contest and still has time to shoot the sh!@ with fellow B/SOTL. What a guy!

Sam Chads a good guy we've herfed a few times, and his wife is very easy on the eyes, well his wifes pic is, I'd never look at his wife with him around

Gunny, you have slept at my house. I think that may account for more than herfing a few times....granted the cat didn't make it easy for you....

You can look at Lindsay all you want, just don't touch....

[gunbuyer76]
