the last cigar you nubbed.......

[El Presidente]

You know....that cigar that was soooooo good that your fingertips were burning as you tried to get the last little bit of life out of it....one more draw before the finger pain made you put it in the ashtray...and they you still tried again

Had this yesterday with an 07 Partagas Short. Perfection..still taste it now.

What was the last cigar you nubbed to a blister because it was so damn good

Rob...a topic that has touched the core of my heart! Where do I start? The last 5 I've had I've nubbed...

In chronological order:

1) '14 Bolivar Belicosos Finos

2) '14 Quai d'Orsay Corona Claros

3) '14 Ramon Allones Gigantes

4) '11 Ramon Allones Superiores

5) '13 Por Larranaga Panetelas

I've refined my method for storing my cigars for maximum enjoyment. I store my 'go to' cigars in a cool, dark place at 62 rh. (Long-term cigars I rest at 65 to 69 rh, then I move them to my 'go to' storage when ready to smoke.) By keeping my cigars this dry I find they burn well with maximum volume of smoke, and I find with good draws of smoke I get maximum flavour. To prevent bitterness, tar build-up and overheating, especially in the last third, I slow down just past halfway. The challenge for me is to not have to re-light.

I find by doing these things I can get maximum 'mileage' in flavour from my cigars and hence why I nub them often.

The Partagas D4 I just smoked.

[AndrewNR]

One I had two days ago.. First cigar I'd had in awhile.. Beautiful. Was from a sampler too..

[anjimj]

MOU 14 Cohiba Espy. Just a classy cigar all the way to the nub! Wonder what it will be like in 5-7 years!

I had a Nov 14 RASS with an ordinary appearance and a forgettable box code a few weeks ago that was simply life changing. No RASS before that ever came close and I will probably smoke 2000 more RASS of varying ages trying to replicate that experience in vain. The most interesting thing about this cigar was the nub. As it burnt away into almost nothing I picked up a distinct flavor of molten flesh...

[FalseCast]

Actually, it was a '13 HU no.2. One of those cigars you hope for every time you spark one.

[Ginseng]

Tonight's RyJ Cazdores 2011. Reliable rich and meaty Cuban goodness.

07 punch rs11 these have yet to fail and then another night dug deep and found and 09 mag 46 that was just superb from the first draw I knew it was put away the iPad and go on the journey this cigar was going to lead me on and it was just gorgeous.

[santela]
