Has anyone else noticed there seems to be some sloppy application of glue on the bands? There is nothing worse than getting down to the last few inches of a very enjoyable cigar, going to remove the band..only to have the wrapper tear where the glue go on it. I HATE that. Im also having some issues with the wrapper starting to unroll on me after clipping the cap. Anyone else experiencing this or maybe I've gotten some bad batches/poorly cared for cigars? My other cigars of different brands stored in the same tupperdor haven't shown any of the unrolling/cracking issues so I was just curious. Thanks!

I haven't noticed that any more with Perdomo than I have with any other brand. On the contrary, I think Perdomos are less likely to tear given how large of a band they generally have. For me, it's easier to peel the band off given that I have more to grab on to. I'll have to pay attention to this the next time I have a Perdomo.

Other than having to re-lite a cigar, having the band stick to the leaf due to crappy aplication really upsets me. Very fustrating :angerhead

I have seen that on occasion with Champagne's . Connies are generally thinner than other leaves and tend to do this more readily. Honestly, one of the hardest bands to get off - Tats. that little brown band sometimes has glue a third of the way around the cigar...
Now that I think about it there are lots more - Toranos & CAOs, Padron regular lines and AVOs also come to mind.

x2. The paper is so damn thin, and the glue job is so well done that I can never peel the damn thing off...lol
