Re: Green spots on cigar

I see green spots frequently and even though I have very few of the forbidden ones (maybe 50 or so) they seem to have on average more green spots than the NCs.

How was I supposed to know it was water spots?? I've never seen them before. Besides if questions didn't get answered more than once this place would be dead. Sorry if I didn't use the search function properly

Don't sweat it. Posting a pic was good so that we could all see exactly what you were talking about.

There is a specific forum here for cigar questions as well with lots of good info.

Re: Green spots on cigar

Its all good, if u would have searched for green spots you would have found numerous threads on the subject. But like I said dont take offense to what I said, just use the search function for any questions before posting. The reason I bring this up is because numerous threads containing the same questions only take up more space. No biggie, but there is alot to be found with search. Glad you didnt take anything to heart as some guys do and look forward to seeing u more on the board.

Re: Green spots on cigar

Its odd, but I have only noticed these green water spots on Perdomo's. They still taste great, as all Perdomos do!!!

No problem. I will definitely try to use the search more in the future.

Re: Green spots on cigar

Nice to know those are harmless (but ugly) waterspots.

Looks scary though

Re: Green spots on cigar

As another note - those green spots are a lot more common than most of you think. I have a habit of cutting open cigars and run across it all the time in the fillers and binders. Matters not Cuban or Non-Cuban.

I also don't think it's just "water spots" - I think it's more just the way the leaf cured - insufficient air flow, low heat, etc etc - I mean remember that the leaf was green to start with.
