So far 5 of the 10 (of the 35 pack) all have tunneling issues.

My humidor is set to 72% and none of my other brand sticks have issues.

I'm starting to think that the Diesel sticks in this Motherload pack were rolled terribly. Even when I squeeze the sticks they feel like they cheaped out on the filler.

Anyone else have issues with this pack?

Haven't tried that set specifically, but some of the smokes in it. Usually no real burn issues. I believe 72% is a little high. Try a few in lower humidity for a few weeks, or maybe dry box a few for a few days. See if that helps

Haven’t ever bought that bundle but my initial thought is your RH is too high.

Might wanna try to dry box one for a few days and/or lower your RH to 69% or lower for 3 to 4 weeks.

Edit: SOB beat me to it. [frypan]

Well, I doubt the RH is too high because my other cigars have no issues.

Then it’s pretty obvious. You bought a load of craptastic cigars. Life is too short to smoke chitty cigars.

YMMV of course.

You ever heard of dry boxing Maduros?

The wrappers on those cigars is heartier than a Connecticut wrapper, which would be the ONLY suitable wrapper for 72%rh .

So you’re wrong, and you buy crappy cigars.

72% is too high. Go for mid 60s and let the cigars rest for a few months.

TO HUMID! Smoke better after a few days at LOW humidity. Diesel cigars ALWAYS PERFORM FINE. You need to do better![crybaby]
