these are REPOSODO COON., HABANO ? Never had this problem before. They are kept in same humi as 4 other brands no problem with any other ???. Thanks AJ.
Just trying some logic here. I am assuming it will not stay lit. Just because I would like to know all facts what is your RH set at.
Now, since you say 4 other brands are not having any issues and these are, assuming all cigars have been in the humi long enough to assume all have stabilized, I would rule out RH problems unless it is a situation to where these are put in the humi in such a way that they are not able to gain the RH as well as the others or gaining to much of the RH in comparison to the other cigars. Rotation, Rotation, Rotation.
Now, here is the thing, "Dry" things including cigars burn very well when dry. They tend to burn hotter and faster with a mucked up irritatingly strong and unpleasant taste and smell when to dry.
To much RH these cigars should taste bitter, even though the taste is still present at the beginning of a smoke but they are extremely hard to lite, very soft and you could very well endup with mold issues.
With all that said, If you do rotate your cigars, knowing all cigars in the humi are receiving the same amount of RH and these are the only ones having this issue then I would most likely assume it is the brand of cigars. That would be the only logical option left.
