I prefer the taste of aged tobacco :)

Well aren't YOU "Mr. Particular"...?!

Hey, speaking of funny tasting cigars... I thought it was cute when my
favorite family-owned tobacco shop in Reno was using an AROMATIC cedar
sauna as their walk-in humidor -- it was a bit pungent to stand in, but
didn't seem to hurt the cigars much, and struck me as a clever way to
get a big wooden room pre-built on the cheap.

...But now I'm starting to see this trick used all over, and I'm
wondering: does *NO ONE* understand the difference between Cedar as in
"Cedar chest" and Spanish Cedar (which is really Mahogany, anyway!)?!?!

I hope this doesn't become an actual industry fad. Pretty soon, we'll
start seeing humidors "made from 100% genuine cedar!"

Gak!

I suppose if you like your cigars with "hints of grandma's panties"... :)
