    Yeah. That happens sometimes. Were you smoking outside? was it muggy? I've been trying to figure out what causes that to happen. Some people think its just poor bunching of the leaves. I've also heard that it can be caused by a stem inside or predominant vein on the wrapper. Don't really know.

    Can be a number of reasons, poor quality control etc but the most prominent reason I've come across is either the rH was too high or that the cigars rH was vastly different than the environment the cigar was being smoked in. As an example I've had a number of cigars that did that too me while I was either smoking under a canopy in a rain storm or smoking a cigar while hot tubbing. Just my two cents.

    Had this happen with a couple MOW seconds. Chalked it up to construction, hence why they were seconds.
