Surely it's chemistry not physics? Or even biology? [emoji16][emoji39]
Well, yes and no. The two fields overlap. Have you never heard of "physical chemistry?"
Put anther way, according to our old friend Google - physics and chemistry may overlap when the system under study involves matter commonly encountered on earth, composed of electrons and nuclei made of protons and neutrons. On the other hand, chemistry is not concerned with other forms of matter such as quarks, mu and tau leptons and dark matter, which do not participate in the transformation of one kind of substance into another, and which we do not observe under typical terrestrial conditions.

But if what you say is true, how do you account for this, senor stevietheknowitall? Certainly you can't change the laws of physics, so either they are holding on to them longer before release or they've discovered a way to apply the wrapper without introducing moisture, which triggers the fermentation.
Hmmmmm....?

I recall Mitch saying that the Cubans are holding onto leaf for longer before rolling them.
I agree re: Cohiba. They're bloody awful if they're young. I bought a fresh box of Siglo 6 and they were cack when new. No smell of ammonia but tasted quite crap. Three years old now and they've improved a lot but still got lots to go.....

we call taht quantum chemistry. and as much as the chemist doesn't dabble into quarks, leptons, and neutrinos, a decent amount of quantum physics knowledge is required to for full abstract thought in chemistry. especially when working with new theses and there's no cookbook recipe like in Organic chemistry courses.
