Temperature does matter, a warm humidor (>80F) can cause the cigar beetle larva to hatch.

AMUNITION!!!!!! (j/k)

Another vote for mold, plume will look like fine white hairs that encompass the entire cigar.

I have been purchasing cigars from "cigar place" for years, and have had absolutely no problems whatsoever.

"Sweetened tobacco" usually is a cover up for an inferior product. I would start with mild Dominican Republic cigars and move up as your taste improves. JMHO

I have been ordering cigars online for years from "Cigar Place", and they have never let me down. Their customer service is very good, and when I had a problem with a box, they sent me a return label, sent me a new box plus 5 extra cigars for my trouble.

My guess would be that they are rolled by several rollers with different tobaccos and are boxed after coming down a chute, opposed to one roller with one batch of tobacco rolling the entire box.

  Would that be like harvesting tobacco while singing the theme to Spongebob and making fart sounds with your hand and armpit? Why yes it would (lol).

Immaturely harvested tobacco will also do this.

"plume" is usually fine white hairs that cover the entire cigar, and they are certainly not "blotches" or irregular shaped, also some "sun spots" on the wrapper can be mistaken for mold.

I would wipe the inside panels of the humidor with a damp rag moistened in distilled water, and repeat the process every few hours. If you are using the correct cedar, it should soak in, in a reasonable amount of time. You may consider adding a few drops of "PG" to the water (a debatable topic)...

San Cristobal "del sol"

Diamond Crown and Ashton immediately come to mind.

Yes it is, hello everyone, it is nice to be here and post on such a knowledgeable board.

The Oliva serie V is a great start.
