Plume happens when the oils of the cigar crystallize on the wrapper and it is a good indication that the cigars have been kept in proper conditions. However, some cigars plume fairly easily after a few years and others never will. It does not affect taste.

The only cigars I have that have any indication of plume are some special release Pepin Blue Label lanceros from '07. I have other lanceros in the same box that have no indication of plume.
