    very common for vintage (aged) cigars to develop an extremely light, pure white dusting of mold. Not harmful at all, and signifies a mellowing of the tobacco. Green, however, signals decay and bad cigars. Proper humidity control is vital.

    All of my '88s and '93s have this, as do my "aging" boxes of LGCs. I usually wipe the mold off when I give a cigar to a friend. Doesn't bother me anymore.

    If you'd like a try at one, email me, I'll send you a few stogies.

    Plume is what it's called.....lets say it's the grey hair of cigars. If you don't want them send them here I'll disposed of them for you

    In my book a cigar with plume that consists of white dusting stated earlier is like aged Scotch, better with time and the flavor characteristics change usually for the better.

    The last one I thoroughly enjoyed was a Padron 1964 Principe, along with a selection of fine rums at a local rum bar. They looked at me funny when I asked for a mojito made with Zaya rum, but once the bartender tried one himself, he saw the light. Combined with the Padron, it made for a fine evening with some old friends out on the patio.
    The Padron 1964 (Naturals) are my all time favorite, but they sure have gone up in price when you can find them.

    Spoken like a true addict, err, I mean connoisseur!

    I tried for the life of me to remember it was "plume," but it just wouldn't come to me!

    And no, you can't have them. I was merely offering a stick or two to someone who's never had.

    Just finished an Alec Bradley American Sun Grown. Very good medium bodied cigar for around $5. Highly recommended.
