Unless your box is very very humid that is not mold. Mold will usually appear sproradically in spots where there is higher humidity. Unless these cigars were sitting directly under a freshly filled humidification source, I'm guessing plume. It probably looks more white like mold because of the flash. I'm guessing in person these are just slightly dusty looking.

BTW, VSGs are hands down one of the fastest and most consistently pluming sticks out there in my experience.
