Any particular cigar that you had in mind? I have always had a great burn with an Oliva Connecticut and an La Perla Cobra.

I rarely have a burn problem with any cigar. I love my Aristocrat cabinet humidor.

Another challenge is to put cigar bands on that come off easily.

I swear, if home builders use the same glue as cigar makers, there would be no damage to houses during storms.

^ this

I hate tearing my wrapper when I take the label off so I usually wait until it burns down to the edge so the glue softens. Perdomo is the worst because the bands are so darned big. Oh, Obsidian labels come off really hard too.
