I smoked my first Nub Maduro Tubo tonight. It was a part of the bomb that a buddy laid in my lap the first time we met up to herf. It was amazing.

Yeah Mac they put them in tubes and jacked up the price. I like some nubs but you can't smoke a tube, so it's a marketing ploy.

I love the look of the tubes, I look at them every time I go to my B&M. I just can't justify the premium for the packaging, though. The Cains come in them too. Maybe I can justify just grabbing one of each so I have the tubes.

Whoa! Wow! Actually they are cedar lined and the ones I bought were only like maybe $.40 more. So not jacked up, maybe your B&M you go to did. I know some just don't like nub, but geez seems a little harsh! I love nub and oliva products and would have paid $2.00 more for these, cause I like the look of them, but I bought them more for humi art that anything.

Thanks Fordman for your thoughts

I've been meaning to try some NUBS. I like the short smokes, as I'm still a beginner, and long smokes tend to bore me before I hit the band.

Sorry I'm just a little bitter after the whole Sam Leccia debacle. But the only Nub I like are the Cain F and habano nubs. I'm usually a sucker for packaging but not this time.

Yeah I hear you on that whole deal, I am staying out of the middle of that! I did go look my B&M sells the for exactly $.45 more for the Tubos.

It does use a lot of fuel, but it holds a lot too. i dont really have to fill it up that often. I love the punch on it also.

Don't be fulled by the size, these are long smoke an hour to an hour and 1/2 at the minimum

Really? I have to fill mine up on a daily basis, but yeah I LOVE that punch, but since getting a cutter from Shilala (I hope that's right) I haven't been punching. MUCHAS GRACIS SCOTT!!
