Nub Cameroon 466+

This is a a decent smoke with good flavor and very good construction. It just wasn't great for the price. It's very smooth with some nuts, cedar and a touch of leather in there. It's just not that impressive.

i tried these on a whim and because they had a decent rating from this site. Overall, not a bad smoke and I was impressed by the construction ... perhaps one of the best constructed cigars that I've tried and long lasting considering its stature. Flavor was pretty un-even for me, going from a mellow smooth flavor to ash in the mouth. The shorty isn't my style and it was a little fatter than I normally like, but other than that, a really decent smoke.

Bought a box of these back in mid May, and was pleasantly surprised, for such a short cigar, the ratio of filler to length; causes the cigar to last for around an hour and a half on average. With notes of cedar, nuts, caramel, and a touch or two of leather. The ash develops in ringed layers much like an ISOM, and is unparalleled in solidity. I've got my final five aging in a tray in one of my humidors.

Having established the Cameroons as my favorite nubs, I saved the special size for last and was very disappointed. In line with not being able to judge a book by it's cover, this had very appealing looks. But it had an easy draw that should have produced more smoke and required constant touch ups. Flavor was not up to the Cameroon 460, which remains the only nub I've bought more of.

Very uneven construction, poor burn, so-so flavor. I've learned to like the Nub concept but I'll stick to the Habanos which for some reason are better in every way.
