Default More Misinformation

Sometimes I wonder where this kind of information comes from! From "Cigar Advisor" weekly email:

(our Cigar Tip of the Week)
Ammonia Odor in Humidor
Ever open up your cigar humidor and get a whiff of what smells like ammonia? According to one of my best sources, this is a result of the tobacco having not been fully-fermented before the cigar was rolled. Unfortunately, home aging will have little to no effect on reducing the odor. Once the tobaccos have been rolled into the cigar they pretty much retain whatever ammonia is left in them. That said, it doesn't necessarily mean the cigar will taste bad, but a cigar made with properly fermented tobaccos should not give off an ammonia-like aroma.

Let the beatings begin.
