I was at my local B&M the other day...
The owner's husband grabbed an NC Macanudo in a silver tubo. When he unleashed that bastid, I recoiled in horror. It was COVERED with blotchy, mottled patches of some fuzzy lookin, off white ( almost grey ) colored............. something.
He called it "plume." Said it was the sign of a good cigar, lit up and puffed away happily.
I gotta tell ya, kids.... After VERY respectfully asking if I could take a look at this "finely aged cigar COVERED in plume", I can only guess Mr. Larry will have NO fear of infection for the next month or so because I have a feeling he had a NICE, LARGE shot of penicillin administered via stogie.
