I received my Montecristo punch not long ago and noticed it was much larger than the one on my cheap lighter. Not a bad thing, but wouldn't work on small gauge sticks. It worked quite well on a 50 ring not long ago, but this time it seemed to have torn the wrapper a bit. Oh well, right? Later I noticed this:



This had been over humidified at about 73%, but at 70% for about a week. Not sure if I was just a bit of a barbarian or it if the moisture made any difference, but the gauge of the punch is a bit big I'd venture to say (being a bit naive here). Maybe I'm just not quite refined enough yet...

It did smoke well and I ingested no tobacco so it's all cosmetic. And I'm more for function than form I guess unless we are talking Backwoods (yes I've smoked them a few times, but I don't usually talk about that anymore!).
