You probally had a plugged cigar. I don't think that 4% rise in rh would give you that bad of a problem. I've had a few plugs in some good quality sticks and there's not much you can do with those except lay it down and get yourself another one. Some plugs are so bad it's like trying to suck a nail out of a 2X4.

wow interesting I didn't even think about that. I read just the other day that when it's like that to take a straightened paper clip or something similar and shove it through the cigar almost to the cherry to see if it will loosen the draw but I completely forgot about it.

I actually did this last night. I had an Oliva G figurado last night and it had a super tight draw even after a 1/3 of it. So I took a paper clip, straignted it out and it worked great. The draw was better, therefore there was more smoke and I could better enjoy the cigar. Please excuse any spelling mistakes....it is my last day at college so irish car bombs are in order!

Good call maduro - I actually ended up chucking it into the woods later that day without every attempting to relight it. I'm glad there's at least some things I haven't had to learn the hard way.

Man I think I learned everything the hard way. I didn't jump onto forums until I had been smoking a while.
