I thought this was the case as well. Plus, and I could be wrong, but I seem to remember that for a while they came without the foil due to a sourcing problem. Guess the aliens stole all his foil!

I thought they were wet packed but I could very possibly be incorrect. I would hope that if they were going through the trouble of wrapping them in foil that they would be wet packed but who knows now. time to do some digging.

That's because you're always smoking those Matcans that make you go blind in one eye.

I wish I could find the photo of you at that herf. Sitting there with your eye swollen up and still trying to finish that Matcan cigar.

Is it important to take the foil off when you store them or is it kind of like a tubo?

No need to remove the foil when you store them, think of it like a slightly leaky tubo.
I think Big Maduro's implication was that he was worried that the cigar might be slightly over humidified and wanted to ensure it would smoke properly this weekend, hence removing the foil ahead of time.

I'm with Excel, I do not care for their maduro wrapper.
