NUB Connecticut
Nub Connecticut cigars are short, beefy smokes thick with much more flavor than you would think from a sweet and creamy Connecticut wrapped smoke, and a great draw to boot. That is thanks to Oliva’s signature Nicaraguan tobaccos, which can last for better than one hour in this format.
The Nub Connecticut is a smooth and creamy cigar that offers a rich, mellow smoking experience in a convenient, shorter format. Crafted with a mild Connecticut Shade wrapper, this cigar delivers a balanced and smooth profile with notes of cream, cedar, and a hint of sweetness. The Nub Connecticut is designed for those who appreciate a refined smoke but don’t have the time for a longer cigar. Despite its compact size, it offers a satisfying, full-flavored experience, making it perfect for those seeking a quick yet quality smoke. With its consistent burn and creamy texture, the Nub Connecticut is an ideal choice for both seasoned smokers and newcomers alike, offering a delightful smoking experience from start to finish.
