I like how in the end he pretty much says shut up unless you know what your talking about. Great educational read.

What a great read. I learned several things form that post.

I'd like to add my thank you to the pile. It means a lot for someone like Steve (who definitely knows his stuff...just spend ten minutes talking to the guy!) to sit down and compose such a thorough and thoughtful response to this sort of issue.

Well done, and thanks for posting this up!

to me, if the wrapper rubs pigment without moisture or excessive with minimal moisture, i want nothing to do with the cigar no matter what method is used in obtaining the specific color.

Very interesting. I've been wondering about this since I got some color transfer off an Ashton maduro. The Fuentes don't seem like maudromatic people.

Back before I started making an effort to keep the head dry I'd routinely get at least a little brown gunk on my lips, even off non-maduro cigars.

Had the color transfer thing happen to me with a Graycliff 1666 that was a freebie on an order I made one time. It was bad.

Great read indeed....thanks for sharing. Steve (and JDrew for that matter), are both first class. The fact he took the time to respond to something like this further substantiates that. And.....AND.....they make damn fine smokes to boot!!

Hey guys... I simply found this while googling something earlier in the day. It is posted on another forum so I didn't want to posts links here. If you really need it I have no problem shooting it over, but you won't see anything mind-blowing... just what I posted really. And... I didn't write the entire post claiming to be Steve... :)
