I know a few people have already experienced this but has anyone ever seen this many in one cigar? I pulled them all out of a Brickhouse Corona Gorda. It was smoking alright until the beginning of the last third when it went out completely. I looked at the ash and it was rock hard and pure black. I decided to take the cigar apart and found all of these inside of it. All of the pieces were really hard.

That seems like a lot of stems, but since I have only dissected a few cigars, who knows how many cigars I've smoked that looked like that on the inside.

I would definitely contact Arturo Fuente and tell them that you are seriously disappointed. They better give you a refund or more

That's a fuente? I'm really surprised. Is this model made by apprentice rollers? I've never seen something like that in a hand rolled cigar.

I pulled 5-6 out of the back of an OWR corojo last week.

I have been finding a few in the latest batch of VSGs I had but nothing like that especially from one cigar. Crazy

I would email Bobby and Eric Newman they are awesome. I hope they take care of it.

Brickhouse is not made by Fuente... Just a FYI.

I had this happen to me with a Graycliff Blue label, but it was only 1 stem...

Ah... you are correct. It is made by J.C. Newman

I've wondered about some that I have quit on. Have to dissect the next one. That is an insane amount of stem.

I haven't seen that much before, but my buddy pulled out some pretty hefty stems from a Arturo Fuente Gran Reserva the other day. Must be a common thing.

I've only had this happen to me maybe once or twice before with different cigars but it was never this many in one cigar. I wasn't going to really do anything about it but I might now. Do you have their contact info?

Not that many, but pulled 3 branches out of a Nosotros about 2 weeks ago...

It happens, thankfully not that often :-)

I smoked a Padron 40th a couple of years ago that had two stems in it. Needless to say I was a bit upset considering the price point of these cigars. I sent an e-mail to Padron voicing my displeasure and never received a response from the company.

Wow I was going to post this same thread yesterday with a Rocky Patel Cigar, forgot which one...wait no Vintage 1990 and it had many HALF as many but I was still wondering "wtf?".

That seems a bit excessive. I wouldn't be too happy to find that in any hand rolled cigar.
