I was attempting to smoke one of the 5 Vegas Gold Maduros that i got off of the sprint sale taking a draw out of it was like trying to drink out of a straw with a hole in the side of it. after some investigation i peeled back the wrapper a little bit and found this....

(sorry for the shoddy picture quality, it was a free camera...)

it was a hole through the binder, and it looks like mos of the binder had been ripped and squashed over to the side, the hole is about the size of a pencil eraser... has anyone else come across something like this in a cigar before?

    I've had those draw issues, where all I seemed to get is airmit never thought to peel back the wrapper.

    Can't say I'm surprised, nature of a handmade product. Never had that happen though.
