Re: NUB purchase
It's a decent smoke. I had the CT today and it took me a little over an hour to smoke it. I like the Habano better then the others.

I agree with you. The Habano, Cameroon and CT in that order. For me, anyway.

I smoked a Conny, and it was a nice morning smoke. Decent price point for a cigar that takes almost an hour (even for the 354).
But I smoked the Habano yesterday, and I must say I was surprised! It had a ton of flavor and was a pretty full bodied cigar. Now don't get me wrong, it's not a Serie R, JDN Antano, or anything of that nature. But I found the strength to be on par with the Oliva Serie V (It is my understanding that they share the same wrapper, although Oliva isn't publicizing that).

I had several customers grabbing them 'cause they "were looking for a good 30 minute smoke." When I told them to plan on about an hour or more, they just laughed, grabbed one and headed to the smoking lounge. An hour later I asked them how the 30 minute cigar was going. 90 minutes after torching them, they both bought a handful and headed out the door happy.

Re: NUB purchase
That's funny as most people don't believe they take that long to smoke. They say "it's too short to take over an hour"
I agree I like the Habano the best.
