It actually felt more dried out. My humi is back up to 70, more info to come...
EDIT - After smoking another Monte #4 at 70%, I can see a difference but it is not as significant as the inconsistency in the cigar. I can tell the #4 is very inconsistent. When they are on, like the #2, they are some of the best cigars, period. But as far as my experience goes the "on" ones are few and far between. Out of 5, one was outstanding, while the other four were good. I was surprised about the #4, I expected more of a milder, woody character. Man, these are some little firecrackers at six months. I think maybe some age will tone them down and give them extra character, maybe not. I'd like to have 5 more with at least a year of age. Back to the topic, I liked the #4's better at 70% because they did not seem as dry and harsh. They were more mellow, but still full bodied. But inconsistency in the line is the main flaw as the two at 70% I did smoke were not the same monsters.
