Is this mold? Can I still smoke this?

I wiped some off already using my finger...not sure if this is mold...doesn't look like one I've ever seen, but it's surely not something that comes with the cigar...please help photo 20150401_112438_zpsob8iccpu.jpg photo 20150401_112431_zps8swz5qr9.jpg photo 20150401_112419_zpssmmxmlx1.jpg

    So is it mold, or not?

    no it doesn't appear to be. just wrapper imperfections. what cigar is it?

    Most looks like some pectin or glue. Roller was over zealous.

    I'd smoke it
    Is that like tapping? As in, I'd tap that.

    Same scale. Much easier to get rid of a bad cigar though

    I'm not sure. You say you already been wiping it before pics? You got a magnifying glass? See if it looks like some of the examples in that other thread referenced.

    What does mold do to you when smoked? Is it a hallucinogen? Does it taste better or worse than smoked beetle larvae?

    "Did you just spit on my-" Nevermind. hahaha... reminds me of that new-ish show on FXX... You're the worst, I think it's called.

    If it's a value stick like a cinco or something I'd toss it. If it was something tasty / something I've never had, I'd blaze it.

    It doesn't look bad to me, a little "rustic" looking but i have smoked cigars similar in appearance without any negative outcome.

    Looks a lot like glue coming off... but that last pic makes it look a little fuzzy. Either way, I'd smoke it.
