Fragile wrappers
Is it me, or are Connecticut wrappers the most fragile?
Almost every cigar with one i smoke cracks while cutting and/or while smoking, no matter how gently I handle them Not a big deal 99% of the time, just something that I have noticed Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

Love me some cameroon - AJF New World Cameroon selection is a great stick.
Fuente uses a lot of it too. Yes, in my experience too - connecticut wrappers are the most delicate. I don't smoke at 65% except in the winter. In the summer, 72 or higher so the cigar does not explode when I draw georgia's summer steam room through it...

Another Cameroon fan here. Agree that they can be delicate as well as Connecticut. I've been storing my cigars a little damper these days, 70 - 75% then dry boxing them for a while prior to smoking. Seems to work well.
