Looks like a puncture wound to me .. at the same time the size looks consistent with a beatle. May need some more pictures. Get a white piece of paper and tap the cigar over it. If there is fine tobacco dust or beatle poop you have a problem Houston.

Looks like something impacted your cigar. Now maybe with a closer shot we could determine how round the hole is, and so better guess whether a beetle also just happened to have bored out at that spot.

FYI, beetle holes are going to be almost perfectly round and look hollow, almost like the cigar was stabbed with a sharp pencil tip through the wrapper and binder. The beetle burrows right through to the filler. And fairly large, usually at least 1-2mm in diameter.

Beatle damage?

Edit. Short answer: No. 
if you’re really worried though, here’s a good test. Hold the cigar over a white piece of paper, foot down. Flick the side of the cigar. If a whole bunch of tiny particulate gunk falls out, it’s beetle poop. Freeze em for a few days and stop worrying. 
Well no poop.....thanks for the knowledge

This looks identical to a Don Alejandro that I received about a month ago. Some cigars were shipped to me in an empty cigar box, the box's little nail wasn't straight and ended making a hole in e cigar when the box was closed. Pretty sure it could be what happened to you.

Yes, it definitely looks the same, if you received it as a single, It looks like the person who shipped it didn't see it or didn't care. IMHO it is hard not to see if it is a single. It doesn't look like beetle damage at all and anyway, you would really have bad bad luck if the beetle damage happened during shipping!
