Is This Mould?

Hey guys,

I got some RyJ Short Churchills this week and there were some green marks on one of my sticks. I read all the posts about mould and my feeling is it's not mould but just wanted a second opinion. It doesn't seem to wipe or rub off, and it's not fuzzy.

Could be just a weird discoloration?

Thanks
Corona Lover

It's not mold, it won't rub off and its nothing to worry about. It is a discoloration.

Yeah, I think it has something to do with the processing/fermenting that is done in the factory. Nothing to worry about.

Hey Corona Lover,

I had that same colouring on a few Cohiba Siglo VI's. Its not mold so nothing to worry about.

Thanks for the confirmation guys. I thought it was nothing... but better safe than sorry!
I've got my tiny 25 count newbie humidor full of things I want to sample. I love it that some of the more popular ISOMs are available in packs of 3 or 5. It makes it easy to order from dealers that don't do single sticks.

Cheers,
