AbuAmelia Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Shipments arrived today! Only a few more are left from my order and I'm all set.... For a few. I inspected everything, and so far so good. I do have a question though. I inspected a box of Partagas Shorty, and they looked ok and smelled fantastic, however, there is some wrapper markings that I have not seen on others. Is this normal to have green spots on them? Doesn't look like Mold because it doesn't come off. I've posted some pictures below. Lastly, I also received my Xikar Travel case for my trip to the Bahamas tomorrow and want to ask of there is a way to break open the puck so I can put my HF beads in there? Any suggestions?

mk05 Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Perfectly fine, angels kiss as they are called. As for beads, use a silk stalking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used a screwdriver and opened the puck! Happy about that too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skyfall Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Like others have said, merely water spots, nothing to be alarmed about. Most of the time the water spot is on the leaf while still growing or early on in aging. No biggie! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cigar Surgeon Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 To build on what has already been said: Water spots can appear a few different ways. Often they appear as a lighter color than the wrapper. In this case the green you see is portions of the leaf where it never fermented, so you're seeing the original leaf color.
