Damn mold!

So I jumped on this Joes' special last week for some Romeo y Julieta Reserve Maduro. After diner last night I went to fire one up, figuring I'd let the rest rest for a while longer. The one I pulled out had some small white mold colonies growing on and around the foot. I brushed it off easily enough, clipped the foot, and it smoked fine. When I finished, I grabbed them all out and started checking for more mold.

56k warning for full-rez versions.






I'll shoot them an email in awhile (I'm off to enjoy a smoke), and ask about an exchange or refund. I've wiped the ones with mold down, clipped them, and zipped them up in a baggie. Should I just toss them, or what? Guess my first time could have been a lot worse!
 
You seemed to have handled everything the right way. I'd keep them separate from all other smokes, and mark them for immediate death by fire. Brush off any mold, should be fine.

As for CI, they usually make good, I haven't had a problem with C-Bid and I am under the impression they are the same company, essentially. Good luck, and that sucks!!!
 
Oh common, that is mold. I'm surprised they are giving you some trouble. How old are those sticks, how could they possibly even think it is plume?
