I started to get to the center of the PLPC bunch from our host. What I discovered is that a number of the cigars have a gold dust, most likely from the gold used on the labels. On some of the cigars, it's quite a generous sprinkling. Is this a common occurrence with PLPCs or is it what I should expect from PSP ?

Noticed this before thought it was plume then realised it was from the labels was excited for a while

I have seen this in many threads before regarding PL gold bands and the finish leaving "dust" on the wrappers. No big deal.

The gold dust you see is on many cigar brands. 

When they print the bands they use a metallic pigment that sometimes flakes off and sticks to the cigars, it’s harmless, I’ve been a printing press operator for 27 years and have seen this happen on anything with metallic ink.
