wrappers
Options
why are the wrappers on my cigars splitting after i light them . my humidity is between 65-70% at all times. i rarely smoke them under 6mos. in my humidor. i'm thinking my hygrometer is wrong, plus this is happening only to the light colored wrappers .

I know from experience that some wrappers are certainly more delicate than others. But in your case, since it only happens when you light them, I'd be inclined to say it sounds like a humidity issue. Do you use a digital hygrometer or an analog one? If digital, have you calibrated it recently? And, if analog, why haven't you gone digital? All the cool kids go digital.

I have experienced the same problem if I smoke a cigar to quickly, it will heat up and crack in the middle, it could be that or the humidity problem joe mentioned. any other suggestions ?

I can't think of anything to add to what you guys have already said. Well, not anything helpful, anyway.

Darn little, kas. Had a storm. That's about it. Sittin' here listening to Letterman. I'm thinking about scratching myself, later.
How 'bout you? What's up with the big shoulders? -
sometimes its the humidity difference between the cigar and the air. is it very dry out where you are? or overly humid?

Where are you cutting your cigar? If you cut below the cap it can start to unwrap.
