I would say if you can brush it off, its mold. If you can't then I would imagine it's just a small blemish on the wrapper. Since the color of con. wrappers are so light, sometimes a small blemish can stand out.

I have noticed this on a couple of really light shade connecticut wrappers that I attributed to blemishes, but have never had a problem smoking them. But yeah, if it was something you could brush off, I would think mold.

I had a couple of connecticut wrapped cigars that had green spots. Don't worry about it. If it's teal and can be wiped off then it's mold. If it's just a green splotch then it's caused by direct water contact during the curing process (basically a stain).

I have a few connies with just this same ailment.. I agree with Marshall, don't worry if it is a "stain". If it is powdery, and blue/green than it's mold. Not so good.

I've had the same thing before, a very faint green spot on a light conn wrapper. It almost looks like it is underneath the wrapper. Don't worry, it didn't affect the taste of the ones I have seen it on.

i've actually even seen conn.-wrapped cigars that are almost entirely green, and they're still fine. I think that a light green cast is even a normal trait of one or two certain brands of cigars, but i could be wrong.

Candela wrappers are a light green, it is caused by a technique in fermenting that halts the color change process.
