Burn Problem with a Cigar from CI

In another thread I read about cigars purchased from CI, saying that on arrival they are wet. The cigar in question was a Cuba Libre One bought from them. As is my custom, following the rule of 3s, I put the cigars down for 3 days. When I smoked one, a curious burn problem occurred. This cigar more or less stopped its movement toward the head, emitting little smoke, and an inch or so above this arrest, the wrapper grew crinkly. But I still got a reasonable amount of smoke.

Is this an indication of a wet cigar as has been said of cigars bought from CI? How do you tell if a cigar is too wet?
