i just find it humerous that almost with 99% of these cases of threads being started that it almost always winds up being mold/dust. i've honestly never seen a case of someone finding something from a b&m that really had plume on it. btw, after looking at it it looks like it's never been wiped down and it's really impurities from the humidification (probably minerals) building onto the cigar. as everyone else stated the rule is that if it's on the band, it isn't plume.
it's the rule, not the exception
