Beetle hole?

[IK852]

Hi Guys,

 

It’s my first post here on the forum! Hope everyone is doing great!

 

I received a box on Montecristo number 2 about a week ago. I just have time to check every single stick last night. On one cigar, there’s a hole on it.

 

Is it a beetle hole?

 

 

Thanks!

Nope, all the ones I’ve seen are a perfect circle, I’ve had a few little holes or pokes like this no beetles

Could be the beginning of a beetle feast. Not 100% sure. I would take the stick out of the box and keep it elsewhere just to be safe. The picture above in a post from another member is most definitely.

15 years ago, I discovered a cigar with a bore hole through the stick and the yellow cellophane encasing it.  I keep cigars in a cabinet humidor usually in their boxes.  Upon discovery of the hole, I never found further evidence of that insect in spite of a general tear down.  The damage occurred elsewhere?

Looks ok to me but search around for some threads on freezing cigars.

Wrapper looks pushed down rather than eaten. I would say no.

It doesn't look like a perfect beetle hole. Then again, It could just be a half arsed beetle having a bad day 

It looks to be a nick in the wrapper.
