Gentlemen, I have a dilemma....an illegal alien has fiendishly stowed away in one of my stogies by somehow passing itself off as a tobacco leaf during the rolling process and thereby bypassing UK immigration on it's way into the country hidden in the middle of a seemingly ordinary HdM Epicure 2. Upon closer inspection the dastardly fiend appears to be a piece of card that would have been used to make a Montecristo box and could otherwise have made it into the country entirely on its own merits, so one wonders quite why it went to all the trouble.....but my dilemma lies not in the future of the stowaway but in the fate of the poor unsuspecting Epi 2. This is where you, my learned colleagues, come in.
Should I:
A) Smoke it as it is and savour the burning paper fumes (not my preferred option).
B) Try and pull the offending item out with a pair of tweezers, not knowing how deep it is embedded.
C) Keep making cuts off the end of the cigar until I reach a point where it's free of foreign matter.
D) Take the whole thing apart out of sheer curiosity.
E) Chuck it in the bin.
The fate of this otherwise fine cigar is in your hands.
Answers on a postcard please....

. So with great trepidation and not a little emotion, I touched the flame to its slightly imperfect flesh, drew the smoke in and guess what?............................................. ..delicious, just like it's 24 recently departed siblings!!
