Ammonia Smell Hurt Other Cigars?


Recommended Posts

I just got a box of Monte 2s from Jan. '08 production that seem to be giving off a strong ammonia smell. If I put them in my desktop humidor with my other cigars, will the ammonia smell leach into the other cigars and taint the flavor?

I'm no expert, but I don't think it will be a problem. It sounds like they are still "off gassing" -

which I do find a bit curious, given aged tobaccos and hopefully proper fermentation.

If possible, I would keep them in their box, and let them do their thing.

Others may be able to give you more concrete advice.
