According to Famous this is plume and safe to smoke
I received a bad batch of cigars and FSS rep tries to tell me how this is plume and not mold, and only blue mold is unsafe. Funny thing is they would let me return them for a refund, but wouldn't let me return them for replacements like I wanted. ....LOL ![]() ![]() sorry for the blurry pics ![]() ![]() |

Typical case of mold (spotchy here and there with radiating hair-looking structures). Plume is uniform across the whole cigar and looks alot like a fine dust. Wipe those off and enjoy.

White mold generally wipes right off whith no adverse effects, as long as it isn't in the foot.

I've smoked a lot of lightly molded cigars after wiping them clean. You can kill the mold in the fridge and if the cigars don't get too warm it wont come back, at least in our climate.

I don't know what I would do if I had cigars with mold on them. Just seems weird to smoke them. But if you all say it doesn't hurt it, then I will consider keeping it if I ever come across any with mold.

I avoid moldy cigars altogether. Some say wiping them off is ok when it's on the outer wrapper only, but I prefer not to take any risk. A cigar isn't worth me getting sick at all.

MoneyCollector, the number one cause of mold is high humidity. What percentage do you keep in your humidor(s)?
In warmer climates two things happen: 1. Warmer air plus high humidity is asking for mold. 2. Your gauge might indicate 70% humidity but due to warmer air, it might actually be higher than that. Safe humidor humidity numbers are 65% to 68% while keeping it cool in there!
