That's some might fine plume there, it is. :r

Re: Ever Wondered Plume Or Mold
 

is that smokable at this point?

Re: Ever Wondered Plume Or Mold
 

I went into a store in TN that had near all of the stock molded over. Woman asked why I didn't want to purchase anything and didn't understand when I told her...

Re: Ever Wondered Plume Or Mold
 

blue cheese! :)

Re: Ever Wondered Plume Or Mold
 

Even the band looks like it's plumed out (down towards the bottom)!;)

Re: Ever Wondered Plume Or Mold
 

I would wipe it down, let it dry out for a day or so in a dry humi or on my counter and light up and enjoy.

Re: Ever Wondered Plume Or Mold
 

it must be made from the tobacco if its growing on it, so smoke it.

Re: Ever Wondered Plume Or Mold
 

I think this is called "Christmas Tree"? ;)

Re: Ever Wondered Plume Or Mold
 

Was the band removed at one point? (does not look like it lines up correctly)

Maybe it's a fake... (mold and all) :r

Re: Ever Wondered Plume Or Mold
 

If this was cheese you were aging you would have a treasure!

Re: Ever Wondered Plume Or Mold
 

Furry little bugger. :ss

Re: Ever Wondered Plume Or Mold
 

PERSONALLY I would not smoke that. But like they said, wipe it down and smoke it if you feel like
"Hey it's an OPUSX and dammit, I am going to smoke it." It's your cigar. And if you are overweight,
I personally have found the black variety better than dieting for producing weight loss, lack of appetite
and a lil liquid down south.

The alignment problem is because it's been trimmed. AFAIK, they do that to all the bands that go on the lanceros, as they would wrap all the way back around to the face (front) if they didn't.

ADDENDUM: Here's the untrimmed band:

You can see how, even after trimming off an end, it still wraps back around to cover the "Op" in "Opus X" on the opposite side. That's why looks so strange, the under flap of the band is taller and rounded, while the over flap is shorter and straight. The straight lines across the bottom of the band still line up perfectly though.

Ask Russkin about smoking moldy Opus. He had a death cough for weeks

Re: Ever Wondered Plume Or Mold
 

A small amount of mold is no biggie to wipe off, then smoke the cigar. That is a LOT of mold and I wouldn't smoke it. Some mold can be rather harmful so, I would shy away from a concentration that high. I mean, it looks like a sheep ready for the shears for pete's sake.
