BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE
Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.
mold?

Try it and see what they look like. If they look good, smoke it.

Really? You can just wipe it off and call it good? How do you know it's not inside it too?

In reality you can't, however the odds of you inhaling spores from the head of the cigar while smoking are low provided you don't see evidence of mold growth after cutting the cigar. The idea of "if it's in the foot" is a fallacy because the greatest risk is spores in the head of the cigar
As they all said definitely mold. And I agree with jerrod if you don't see mold in the head or foot smoke it. Iv had a cigar or two with some mold and couldn't tell a difference. Might what to ask mister biologist but if I remember bio in HS white mold isn't very dangerous to ingest as long as you don't have mold allergies. If you do I'd probably play it safe and toss it.
Don't listen to him!! He's just trying to create a patient zero to study!
just make sure you unroll it and check the inside.....right?
Whoops
Thanks for the responses!
Well I wiped off the mold (seemed dusty not fuzzy and came off easily) and I'm dry boxing the stick.
I guess if I don't see mold at the foot or in the head when I cut the cap then I'll light 'er up and enjoy.
Won't have a chance to smoke til probably Sat. I dryboxed the stick last night. You guys think it'll be ok in the box til Sat morning or is that much time in a dry box going to dry it out too much?

It should be fine in the box until Saturday. Changing the rH of a cigar takes weeks, not days. Unless you microwave it, then it could take seconds.
