I smelled Eddie's box or maybe it was Christians and it wasn't as predominant. It's probably a hit or miss thing. Not really worried, just impatient!

I'm kinda leery of the odor getting into the other cigars, that's why I Isolated them into their own humidor. After smelling what they did to the humidor I think it was the right thing. It appears that the cedar is doing a decent job of absorbing the odor, maybe if I keep rotating the desktops they're in (after airing the humidors out of course) the smell will dissipate. Thanks for your help bro, I am so looking forward to firing one up! :thumbsup:
What is the humidity like in your house? If it isn't too bad (very high or very low) you could probably let them sit out for a few hours. Having them in a small humidor (25 or 50 count) probably slows the process down since the vapors will fill up the space faster than a coolerdor.

Sounds like it is time to upgrade to a coolerdor, hahaha :rolling:

Space would be helpful, I'll be keeping my eyes peeled for the next 60+ RH day to give em a good airing out.

Thanks everyone for your input.

Picked up two at a local b&m. They had a 2 per customer limit. They had two remaining so I just called and asked them to hold them for me in the event that someone here was in search of them. First one to pm gets the prize.

Still available.

Wait, you smelled my box without asking me first? I thought we were friends. I might have to rethink our relationship Mike.:eyepoke:
