Plume is a powdery white dust found on cigars which have been perfectly aged, it will then release oils from the filler, binder and wrapper. These oils crystalise on the wrapper creating the white dust which shows perfect aging. Plume can take a long time to form and some cigars will never get plume. this might be what the "mold" was google some photos it looks the exact same in my opinion
