How can you tell if it's Spanish cedar?
Hey all:
I have been lurking here for some time but I've recently registered so I can get some advice (hopefully). I recently bought a humidor using eBay (I know, I know) and I think I got a dud. :smiley21: The cedar aroma is overpowering my smokes!
I have other humidors and when I open them I get just a hint of cedar smell. The new humidor smells like a cedar chest designed to protect clothes from moths! My cigars taste like cedar :smiley19: and I'm thinking that the cedar in the humidor is not Spanish cedar as was advertised.
My question is, how can I be sure? How do you tell the difference between Spanish cedar and regular cedar? I need some authoritative advice in order to square this with the vendor and either get a decent humidor or get my $ back.
Any advice?
Thanks,
Michael
