A lot of people like cigars that are bitter. I happen to be one of them, but it depends on the cigar. My business associate craves for a cigar that is bitter.

When I approach my reviews I take the cigar for what it is, more then my person taste. I know not everyone likes mild and not everyone likes full. I even have a friend who hates pepper. So I try to remain neutral.

How can any cigar that starts off with a bitter blast get a 90?

I recently tried the NUB 466 Habano torpedo and it did the same thing. It really came around, but I struggle with ratings approaching the 90s for anything that kicks you in the arse to begin with. Then again, I include Cubans in the scale. I wished I could have begun this cigar after the first 5/8″.

That’s funny Harry considering both guys had shirts on that said staff. And when asked if they worked for the stogie they said yes.

As the owner of The Stogie I looked into the issue with the Handicapped parking.
Our shop and our staff members were not involved in the handicapped parking problem! Apparently one of our customers was trying to save the spot for a handicapped friend that was coming to the event. I will once again apologize to barry because we do not save handicapped or any other spot. It is unfortunate however that someone spreads negativity without knowing the facts. I believe that Rick and Dave from Oliva will be the first to share the type of shop we truly are! In closing the Nub Maduro i find to be one of the best Nubs to date!

ARGH! The audacity of some people. You’re a better man than I for not making a bigger deal about that.

Great review of the NUb Maduro. I can’t wait to get a hold of some of these. I’m bummed there’s no stops of the NUb Live tour in CO.

Thanks again.

Nice review! I hope to grab a couple of these soon to try!

I agree with Tom that you were a bigger man than I would have been by not saying anything that night about it. I just hope somebody realizes how illegal and just plain rude this was and NEVER lets it happen again!
