Why fuss with experimentation, smoking blindly through the "rule of thirds" in an attempt to find the "sweet spot" of an endless sea of future ash??? Why go through this trouble when you can have a cigar that smokes in said "sweet spot" from start to finish?

This is NUb by Studio Tobac, the most innovative branch of the legendary Oliva Cigar Company (of Oliva Serie V fame). NUb debuted in 2008, becoming one of the first cigars to capitalize on the growing style of large-ring-gauge formats. But Studio Tobac didn't stop there, the company then found the cigar's most flavorful portion and cut the length to only highlight this section—meaning every smoking session is truly "nub worthy."

NUb Maduro offers a dark and hearty blend of Nicaraguan filler/binder tobaccos, wrapped in an oily Brazilian Maduro wrapper. This blend is brimming with in-your-face flavor, showing notes of chocolate, black pepper, dark-roast coffee, and charred oak.
