Spanish Cedar

The type of wood that is used to make most cigar boxes and humidors. Spanish cedar is a marketing name for cedrela, a tree that belongs to the mahogany family. It grows throughout the tropics and is not a true cedar. It’s quite different from red or aromatic cedar, which should never be used in humidors or cigar boxes.
