With cello behind, this is another from the batch. Cello completely yellowed srarkles along stick also looks like powdered sugar in the cello itself. No spider webbings here.

Looks like the GIFT my neighbors

Labrador left for me...

not

And you probably smoked it too.

...tasted better than the rest of your stash. So you followed it around to build up your collection eh?

johnfs ..... so are you a believer in no-cello??? I have been for quite some time. But both of these photos look awesome...... Plume......

You're coming to Florida... WHEN?......

Just about everything in cello, I just always pull one or two out of the plastic, one for the box, and one for the desktop.

For some reason Hondurans seem to plumb at a faster rate(for me) than sticks of other origins. I'll have to take more pics.

Those look like the same HdM maduros that I have from the Dunhill collection. Cello is almost brown.

Mine are covered with crystals and plume, too.

And, boy are they GOOD!

i had something that looks like that on my roses. i sprayed them with water that had cigars soaking in it

for a week

I have been told time and time again.... that if cello is left on for more than 6 months or so.... the cigars build have to sit in their own ammonia..... makes sense why they would turn brown.

And you have sugar on your roses???? SA~WEET!

Cellophane is porous so Im not too sure if they will sit in their own ammonia.

Okay, I'm a believer that it is plume. How long did you let those bad boys age?

Man, that stogie is making me drool all over the keyboard. You should label it as an oink.

This is not the one in the comparasion photos. I didn't like these much when I got them. Flavor improved after a year and half, plumb started at about 2yrs.

Funny, I haven't been able to give them away at the local herfs, after all they're only Hoyos.

This one got nubbed!

cello is not porous ..... I have heard that for years.

Take a smoke out of one... fill it with water..... They do not let "vapor"... "air"..... in or out.....

Not porous... Hop in one and try to breath......

Naked is the key....

Amonia.... is bad and turns cello yellow and smokes nasty.......

First off cigars are aged so that the gases escape, I am a food scientist and I have studied packaging science and cello is NOT a gas barrier.

and if you leave the cello then you will not have wrapper damage.

Cello is not a very good moister barrier either.
