Question about "wet" cigars

Would a "wet" or over humidified cigar have a chemical or metallic taste to it?

When I buy cigars from my local shop they all have this taste but mild.

I bought a few cigars and put them in my empty humidor and I put some pg mix in the lid mounted device b/c I had not added any in a long time. The cigars have been in there for a week. I had one today and it had that chemical/metal taste but very strong.

EDIT: I just took one out and it has split. I always thought they would split from being too dry; like a dry leaf will. Am I wrong and they are swelling from too much moisture?

I do not have a humidity meter yet. I need to get one and get everything sorted out before I order some of those evil cigars from overseas.

Thanks for any info.
