I had one of these in 460 and wasn't a torpedo. Not sure if it's a radically different blend. It was good, but very mild. Definitely needed a good drink or a good buddy to make it a bit more interesting.
Good review as always, Bryan. You helped me decide to pass on this brand. I figured the "sweet spot" was pure marketing. My theory is that the "sweet spot" effect is the result of a build-up over time of various intrinsic elements that only comes from a full-sized vitola. Length is requisite to develop the sweet spot and that is IF a sweet spot even emerges. I do think NUB's look great and the label design is one of the best, IMO.
Very nice still photos at the beginning and great video quality. Very nice format.
Interesting, my experience with thick ring gauge cigars is that they burn cooler than thinner rings because the extra ash protects the cherry of the coal. The exception to this might be loose construction...
Good points about the "sweet spot" theory. "Just a short, large ring gauge cigar." That has been my experience too.
BTW, ring gauge is measured in 64ths of an inch with a 64 ring gauge cigar being 1-inch.

I wasn't a huge fan of the Nub Connecticut when I smoked one, I really loved the Nub Camaroon, though.

it seems like you enjoy medium to full bodied cigars more I was wondering if you could review the nub maduro

I was wondering when you'd do one of these for review. Really nothing special there. The habano or maduro ones are better
