I almost did. This is an Esteban Carreras 12 Year.... I have no clue what that is in there. I am bringing it into the B&M as is and will snap off more pics as I take it apart.
LOL...I found some string in a Trinidad once...red and blue and wait.......it was an ISOM! Pulled them out, cut a little more to double check, and it was a great smoke lol
Several months ago, while enjoying a La Herencia Oscuro I felt something tickling my lip as I took a draw. As I inspected the cap I noticed what looked like a hair sticking out of the filler leaves. As I pulled gently, out slid a red hair about 6" long. As I looked at it I wondered how many hairs we all have smoked. Have you ever had a stick that you know should be great, but it just tasted terrible...?

I try not to dwell too much on the gross things I eaten, drank, touched, breathed, swum around in, and otherwise come into contact with without knowledge. Dirt and bugs find a way.

Almost looks like twine (maybe) --- if so, I'd bet it got missed when they were undoing the bunches after the curing/fermentation process.
