Outgassing: Ramon Bueso: Genesis, The Project cigars

It's not humidity/air vapor as the hygrometer is steady. I'm thinking that the tobacco in the cigars was incompletely fermented and that they are throwing off gas as this fermentation completes. I've read that newly harvested tobacco goes through a phase of outgassing nitrogen? Can't remember the gas. I don't think there is anything wrong with the cigars, and that given time, they will pass out of this phase, and that I should wait to smoke them until they do.

My question is if this is normal, for some cigars, incompletely fermented, to do this.
