The Nub Sampler 8-stick box is a curated collection of short, fat cigars from Oliva’s Nub line, designed to showcase the unique flavor profiles across different wrappers. Each cigar is crafted to deliver the “sweet spot” of flavor right from the first puff, thanks to its stubby format and larger ring gauge.

Key Features

• Format: Each cigar is about 4 inches long with a hefty 58–60 ring gauge.

• Concept: The Nub line was created to capture the most flavorful part of a cigar immediately, without needing to smoke through several inches first.

• Sampler Variety: The 8-stick box typically includes two cigars each of four popular Nub blends:

  • Nub Cameroon – Medium-bodied, spicy-sweet with cedar and coffee notes.

  • Nub Connecticut – Mild to medium, creamy, smooth, with hints of nuts and cream.

  • Nub Habano – Medium to full-bodied, earthy, peppery, with cocoa undertones.

  • Nub Maduro – Rich, full-bodied, with chocolate, espresso, and dark fruit sweetness.

Smoking Experience

• Duration: Despite their short length, the large ring gauge makes each Nub last about 45–60 minutes.

• Strength Range: From mild (Connecticut) to full-bodied (Maduro), offering something for every palate.

• Construction: Consistently praised for excellent burn and draw.

Packaging

• Box Count: 8 cigars (2 of each blend).
