Taboo's too wet?
Had a Taboo Habano Sun Grown last night, and I found it was VERY wet. It didn't burn right, and I found every part of the cigar to be very damp. Do they need some curing time in the humi? Has anyone else experienced this?

Maybe try dry boxing before smoking another?

They have a moisture meter on C-bid, to tell the RH inside the cigar. But I thought it was more of a gimick. Try tossing one in a ziplock with your hygro and see what the RH is.

I was treated to one by a brother. I don't have anymore, yet I was curious to see if anyone else had this issue.

Re: Taboo's too wet?
I got taboo bombed a few months ago. The twists were very wet, so I've put the others down for longer term aging. Should know something in a couple of months, Jimmy.

Re: Taboo's too wet?
On a previous cyber herf about 4 of us were smoking the twists no problems at all.... before looking at the cigar for fault, look to the storing method.... Most likely, over humidified. This being said, I've smoked about 4 twists, my RH is roughly 66-67% and the temp is pretty much 67-69F. If you'd like to try another, pm me your address, I have a few coming my way.

Re: Taboo's too wet?
The Exotic 11 blends I got in a sampler seemed to smoke wet. The SF OB's seemed to smoke a bit better. I smoked my last SF OB this am and, after 3 months in the cooler at 65%, this robusto smoked the best of any of them so far. I think dry boxing for a bit might work out very well.
Man, I really like the SF OB's. I got the toro, torp and robustos in the sampler and they were all darned good smokes. They really ruin my cigar cost average, though  WyoBob
