Funny burn question

[redneck_toy]

I have this happen on a somewhat regular basis. The cigar will get hard right behind the cherry and block the draw, sometimes completely. I then have to squeeze behind the cherry to break up the blockage to get a draw. It usually happens to an otherwise great feeling cigar, slight give to a squeeze, no wrapper splitting like an overly wet smoke. Is this a humidification issue? It almost feels like the tobacco crystallizes the way sugar does when it's heated. Does tobacco have a large amount of sugar content? What are your thoughts?
Edit: I've had numerous smokes do this, but today, it's happening to a Tatuaje 7th Capa Especial. Not sure if that matters, just giving more info.
Great cigar, btw. My first...

A little more info, this one refuses to stay lit for very long

I could be wrong but sounds like tar to me, might be smokin a little fast you can always purge when you start to feel things constricting.

Sounds like a PEBCAC error (Problem Exists Between Cigar And Chair).

Seriously though, I've noticed this phenomenon with some of my sticks as well; frustrating to re-light all the time.

As for sugar content it depends on where the tobacco is grown and how it is processed as to the sugar that remains

I've gone through this a few times. It is usually during the summer when it is really humid so I wrote it off to the outside weather.
I've also had it happen from a certain B&M if I smoke them soon after buying, so I think they have humidification issues.

It's pretty much the same for me, I thought it was humidity/moisture/fast smoking.
