Well, I'll probably never know the difference since I highly doubt a cabinet is in my future unless I will the Lotto.

I cannot imagine that, since there are many boxes inside my coolers and all my cigars are in boxes or trays, all of which are made of spanish cedar that I would possibly need more cedar to properly age my cigars. Shit, when I open the damn things they smell strongly of tobacco and............wood.

No doubt that the wood helps with RH control imho, but beyond that, I'm skeptical of its actual benefit to aging.
