Montecristo petite No2 - Green marks on wrapper

[superflycigarguy]

Hey folks,

I’m new to cigars and just had a bunch of Montecristo cigars delivered from a reputable UK seller.

On of the cigars, a petite No2 has a couple of quite prominent green marks on the wrapper of the cigar. Is this normal or something to be concerned over?



Thanks in advance for your advice!

secondary fermentation,not an issue.
given time it will go away.
sure indication it is the real deal.
also shows that Cuba is hurting for wrapper .
you may see it again down the road from this box....... mee row...

Hmm... Isn't more of a curing issue? The green won't go away in time...

Water spots

You'll see them on CCS from time to time. It's not mold it's not going to hurt you. Smoke it.

Yeah it won’t, still have some 2014 stuff still has the random green water spots on them.

Doesn’t affect the smokes tho, imo.

I've never seen one go away water spots are there forever. I've never had it affect a smoke. It's not mold it's not fermentation. It's water spots!!!!

Same here, never seen it fade or go away completely.

I've seen it get a little lighter but Anytime I see water spots I know darn well it's real. When water is on a green leaf it reflects the sun. Hence the green spot.

I’d still take a cc with water spots over any opus
