Almost All companies Draw test Cigars.

However, NO company draw tests EVERY cigar. It would be near impossible.

Factory Supervisors take a sample of cigars per roller. If a roller has cigars that do not pass the draw test, a larger sample of his/her cigars are then draw tested.

It is done to get a cross section of quality from each roller.

ALSO, every cigar that IS draw tested, is NEVER sold. the cap gets destroyed from the machine, so it is only a way to ensure Rollers are rolling properly.

9 out of 10 draw problems are a result of humidity issues. I understand that you stated you cigars have been well kept. Maybe double check your homographer, or use two for accuracy.

I highly doubt that all of the plugged cigars that you have encountered are a result from poor construction.
