This might be a dumb question, but Ive been wondering b/c most of my cigars get bitter shortly after lighting. I seem to light the cigars well and the first few puffs have a really great flavor, but then seem to get bitter and don't recover. The RH in my humidor is 70 and Ive even dryboxed for...

After a few minutes into smoking, my mouth starts tasting really bitter. Its like my whole pallet is coated in bitterness and even after trying a few sips of soda to overcome the taste, its still very noticeable. I've even tried "purging", with no dice. What am I doing wrong ?
