Beech Wood or Cedar


Recommended Posts

FoH,

I've ordered my new 238 liter thermo electric humidor today and I am very excited. The Humidor includes Beech wood trays but Cedar is an option. The Spanish cedar is about 50 dollars a tray more than the beech wood.. any opinions or words of wisdom?

Beech wood can have a faint but very distinctive smell. In the long-term it might affect your cigars. So, unless this is a variety that comes rather “neutral” – which I guess you can’t check in advance – I’d invest the extra coin and go for cedro. Also poorer insect-repellent and hygro-regulatory properties comp to cedro.

I'm with the rest of the gang....Spanish cedar, don't make the mistake of not investing properly due to funds.....save a little bit more and do it right for your own piece of mind
