    Default Perdomo Lot 23 construction issues

    I had one of these this morning and I knew I was going to really like it as soon as I lit it.
    But, the cap cracked a little when I cut it. Not too big a deal. About halfway, I took off the band very carefully, but the wrapper started to unravel. I fixed it with my always present emergency flour/water glue and it was fine after that. I nubbed it, but it was pretty ragged by then.
    In spite of all the extra labor, I still liked this one enough I wouldn't mind buying a few.
    Has anyone else smoked these? And was this one the exception or the rule. One bad one I can live with, but a that's too much work on a regular basis.

    Thanks to my benefactor for including this one. I had tried a different Perdomo and didn't think much of it. I probably wouldn't have gotten around to ever trying this one based on that.

    I've smoked them. I don't recall chronic wrapper issues. I believe the maduro version is a Nicaraguan puro.

    I think I'll try a few more. A couple of the Maduro, too. If I don't experience any problems and I like them as well as the first, I might buy a box. They're resonably priced.
    I expect the one I smoked had been in a humidor for awhile, so that might have some bearing on my decision.

    I've smoked a few in my day. No issues That I can recall.

    I smoked a few boxes and only found one cigar to have wrapper problems.

    Good enough for me. Probably I got a little heavy handed with it, though I was trying to be careful.
    Thanks all.

    I've smoked through a box and haven't had any issues with them before.
    Yay! Cigars!
