Hello, I consider myself an experienced cigar smoker and I have a large collection of good quality cigars. I have a 150 cigar Spanish cedar humidor with heartfelt beads keeping my humidity solid at 65rh and a temperature which fluctuates between 72 - 80 farenheit throughout the day. I am sure my humidity is correct as I have 3 digital hygros that were salt tested and all read 65rh on a consistent basis. Lately a large portion of my cigars are very bitter from start to finish. These are cigars I have smoked in the past that were not bitter when I bought them. Just as a for instance I have smoked two hemingway short stories over the last two days and both were bitter from start to finish, I have smoked this exact cigar many times before and never had this experience. My cigars are kept in their original cellophane and i do not see any mold or beetle holes/dust. I am at my wits end and really hope that you can provide me with some insight as to why this is happening to my precious smokes. Please help!!
