All Cigar Discussion>A.F. Hemmingway Question
LT Rich 07:11 AM 09-09-2009
Well I am back in the Stan again, and I noticed a trend developing from last deployment; all of my hemmingway's crack as I smoke them when I am in Afghanistan. I keep the cigars in a tupador, so humidity should be fine. I think the craking is due to the extreme humidity differences from the humi to the desert. Has anyone else had this problem, and does anyone have any solutions?

Thanks,

LT :-)

Pretty common with these! The wrappers are delicate anyway. I live in a dry climate and this happens often. Try dry boxing for a day or two! This will allow the cigar to acclimate!:-)

Typical of a cameroon wrapper. They flake like crazy in dry weather.

Jason decided to buy those anejos I was selling, so I'm gonna hook him up with a tupperdor, some 60% beads, and some smokes for his buddies.
That should solve the desert problem. :-)
I had a box of blowing up La Coronadas that couldn't handle the weather this summer. I wish I'd have thrown the box in a bag with a hygro to see just how wet they are. It took a month or two for them to dry out and settle down, now they're fine.
Delicious, too. :-)

Cameroon wrappers are generally more brittle.
