Why Did It Burst?

Could be from smoking in cold wx, if that was the case. Outside cold and dry, inside warm, moist, expanding = split.

It was fairly warm today. At the moment (10:30 PM) it's 68* and 84% humidity. I didn't notice high humidity but it was certainly in the low 70's.

So that leads to a moist cigar. I've had it for about a week. Maybe it was kept at a high humidity. The small cigars I've bought and smoked at the same time have been fine though, but then they also weren't 50 ring.
