Last night after class i decided to smoke a cruzado while doing some readings, and these are some of the 5 total beetle holes i found in the cigar!
The cruzado was in a 25 count humidor of single NC sticks within my coolerador and after inspecting the rest of my stash i found no other issues. I did find a beetle crawling about the 25 count humi that contained the contaminated cigar, and he has met his maker
I have begun the freezing process with the remaining 20 or so sticks that were in the same humi as the cruzado and will keep an eye on the coolerador as a whole. However, I also have a couple of questions:
Do cellophane wrappers help protect cigars from beetles and/or impede beetle hatching?
After freezing, is it ok to smoke the cigar that had beetle holes in it or will it taste like beetle sh*t?
Thanks guys
