    White Powdery Stuff?

    Bought some cigars while in Cozumel and found some sort of white stuff that wipes off easily. Is this mold?

    It is mold for sure. Most will wipe and smoke...some say it is OK. My mold training for work will NOT let me do it. My suggestion is if you do intend to wipe and smoke, at least wipe with a high proof alcohol.

    It's cocaine. Rub it on your gums and see if they go numb
    Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

    Sadly, mold. Unless @Emperor Zurg is right and you got that cigar at La Casa Del Sinaloa.

    I'm keeping them stored separately. Is this a must?

    I keep everyone separate. Did it come in a cardboard box? I hate cardboard boxes.

    They did come in a cardboard box.

    Would this have been too high of a relative humidity?

    Probably. I've had problems with CCs in Cardboard boxes before. Maybe just me but I feel like they can be mold magnets.
