Flavor profile
Creamy · Earthy · Roast
The Nub Connecticut 358 is the wider sibling in the mellow Connecticut corner of Oliva's Nub line. At 3.75 inches by a hefty 58 ring gauge, it packs even more cool-burning tobacco into the short, stout Nub shape, delivering big, smooth flavor in a small format.
What it tastes like
A smooth Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper covers Nicaraguan long-leaf filler. The large ring gauge keeps things cool and creamy, giving a buttery profile with almond, cedar, and a light coffee note. It's mild-to-medium, gentle, and easy, with a typical smoke time of around 50 minutes.
Who it's for
This is an excellent beginner cigar and a relaxing short smoke for anyone who likes a mild Connecticut. To understand the wrapper style, see our Maduro vs Connecticut comparison, and the cigar strength guide explains the mild body.
Track it in your humidor with the Casa DNC app. For a medium step up with a Habano wrapper, try the Nub Habano 460.
