Nub Sungrown cigars are a tasty solar-powered treat that’s never too much to handle. This brand exemplifies not biting off more than you can chew, really. They’ve captured the essence of the cigar experience in a short format you can enjoy on a break and then move on. It doesn’t require a huge commitment like a Churchill cigar might. Instead, you can often smoke a Nub Sungrown in half an hour before it threatens your fingertips with a spicy little fire kiss.
Nub Sungrown cigars typically feature tobacco from Nicaragua quite heavily, although they aren’t exclusively using that region’s leaf. The main reason is that the company behind the brand, Oliva Cigar, has extensive operations there. It’s that same place that birthed the Oliva Serie V Melanio, which won Cigar Aficionado Cigar of the Year in 2014.
The big distinction with this line of stogies is that the wrappers aren’t grown under any cover. Instead, they’re grown in full direct sunlight. This pushes the tobacco to grow strong and flavorful. This type of tobacco is often used as a long-filler, but certain blends like Nub bring it into the spotlight as a wrapper.
It’s a smoke with just enough personality to keep things interesting from start to finish.
