I get ya, 100%. I'm guessing this has more to do with humidity levels than anything else. The moisture always seems to decrease burn integrity. During the heart of summer, I can't recall ever having a cigar that burned well in the final third. They always seem to be soggy, mushy sponges by that point. A dry winter night could theoretically lend itself to the opposite.

You can eliminate all this consternation by doing what I did. Just move to a Caribbean island, where the ambient environ is the same as when the tobacco was planted, grown, harvested, fermented, aged, rolled and stored.....no fuss, no muss.
White shores, and beyond, a far green country under a swift sunrise....
