Is it odd?

1) I had a cigar that from initial draw was way to tight so I just threw it back into the humi for months (1-2). Totally fixed any draw issues it had.

1.5) Maybe if I precut all my cigars, I'll never have draw issues.

2) I was curious if, besides shaving seconds away from me enjoying the cigar, that maybe the flavor changes somehow with having no end cap.

c) You're all a bunch of pecka heads!!

Do you have an idea on why that may be?

Stop buying cigars with trees wrapped inside and you will be fine

I do the same thing. If it's a cheapie, or if the draw worsens during smoking, I will use the draw tool. Otherwise, it just goes back in for a month or two. I generally smoke those ones myself though, instead of handing them out.

I don't know "why" either, but I have had the same experience that Bao did.

Nah, I have as much to learn as anybody and more to learn than some.

Well the popular belief is that if you have a "plugged" cigar you keep it in a dry box to help with any "plugs". But in this thread I looked at the issue of a wetter cigar might be able to produce less "plugs".

Whether your single experiment proves that point, I doubt it. But it does lend to the notion of a higher RH is not a bad thing like many have said before.
