Ok its official I have completely overdone it

Seven Down 33 to Go
I was at the local B&M this afternoon enjoying a nice smoke and decided to take a look through the Humidor, only a look mind you as I was expecting a couple of orders to come in so I promised myself I wouldn't spend any more dough. As I was going through the Humi I noticed bloom on some 06 San Cristobal de La Habana La Punta so I figured what the heck I will just pick up a fiver, after all those orders won't be in till next week.

When I got back to the office I found out my Jeep is ready (I had been in a major accident 8 weeks ago) so I booked off early and went to pick up my Jeep. Good thing I did too because if my wife had of seen the 5er I bought plus the two boxes that showed up at the house I would have been sleeping in it. My 50ct went from fully empty to full in 5 minutes (good thing I keep it seasoned and humid)

So its official, I was sliding merrily down the slop and decided to hell with it this is just too slow so I threw myself headlong off the cliff.

Pictures of the carnage.

Great haul!!! I might check the one on the left here, from the picture it looks like it could be facing some mold probs on the head of it. Aside from that everything looks divine! way to go! (and way to stay out of the dog house)

You would think that by the pic, but it brushes off very nicely, in fact they all looked like that when I picked em up. First time I have ever saw bloom.
 
My only question is "Where the hell in Calgary can you smoke at a b&m?". It's too damn cold to sit outside tonight and I don't want to start smoking inside. I might be tempted to pay for the pleasure of warmth via a cigar purchase at a local shop.

Do you have any better pics of those? Id tend to think it was mold due to the fact that they arent too old and it seems to be splotchy vs uniform. Maybe someone else can chime in on this one or you can post a lil better pics on the suspect cigars. Mold will brush right off tho and the sticks will be fine as long as it hasnt went into the foot.
 
I have to say on further inspection I still think it is plume my logic being this.

It is evenly distributed and more crystalline on the cigar, as apposed to mold which will typically more of a lump by lump type thing. Also under a magnifying glass ( I did this after reading your post as the last thing I want is a box full of moldy gars) mold will look furry as it has filaments on the end where the spores will be released. I cropped this picture so it would be as close as I can do with my camera.

Either way I will watch it carefully to insure it isn't mold.

You haven't overdone it until your Cbid purchase makes your make account overdrawn. :r (Speaking from experience!)
