BellevilleMXZ Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 Never had one split this bad.... EPI#1......seems like a very thin wrapper, not sure if all these are thin, its the only one I had.
SteveH Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 Wow....that's worse than the gas station Macanudos we used to smoke in College outside in the snow. 2
lafabrica Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 that is quite the split - happened after you took the 2 bands off? epi #1 do have delicate wrappers... 1

Ya but they just slid right off. I think its the temp/RH outside, as the one the brother was smoking(MC), also ended up with a slight split toward the end. In the garage they don't do this .

boilers183 Posted April 3, 2017 Posted April 3, 2017 I've never seen one THAT bad. Did any of it start when you were taking the bands off? 1
zeedubbya Posted April 3, 2017 Posted April 3, 2017 It's likely a humidity issue. I've had it happen several times. Had it happen on thick NC wrappers. Maybe we can get @PigFish or @Fugu to stop by here to explain in scientific terms what happens when a cigar blows up. It's only happened to me when it was hot and humid outside it would seem. 2
gweilgi Posted April 3, 2017 Posted April 3, 2017 Crikey and blimey! Have had something like that happen to me a few times, but this one is a doozy! Usually it becomes such a bother that I either ditch the cigar or remove the wrapper entirely ..... 1

canadianbeaver Posted April 3, 2017 Posted April 3, 2017 Happens now and then end to end. These are handmade things. Even yuckier, a blob of black oil on a finger. Weather, various leaf composure, age and structure. Do your best to enjoy whatever happens. lads. Cheers, CB 2
