Treated box in coolerdor?

[mbirds]

Hey guys. I have a box (Gispert) that has the outside treated with laquer or something, and it has a faint odor. Is it a bad idea to put it inside my coolerdor, can it impart a chemical smell or flavor?

If you're that worried then I wouldn't chance it and may'be find another box. But it really depends on how "faint" it is?

I've had the same problem with some 5 Vegas A boxes with some fairly strong smelling lacquer. I took the cigars out, put them in the humi. Then about a month later, after the cigar box aired out I put it in.

Yeah, I guess I won't chance it unless it dissipates. It's too bad, I need boxes for the coolerdor and I keep getting these laquered ones. The Sancho Panza one is VERY strong and will never go in there.

What size cedar boxes do you need? How many of each?
LMK and I will see what I can come up with.
