Cherry Wood

[ciggy]

Can an old china cabinet made from Cherry be used as a storage cabinet. I know someone who has this and wants to sell. It's beautiful but not Mahagony...Solid dark cherry. Could this be used without effecting cigars?

I don't see why not. As long as you have a good seal and the proper humidification you should be all set.

Post a pic.

you could always line it in cedar and turn it into a true humidor....

Cherry is a hardwood that should be fine for storing cigars. That being said - most people do choose to line with Spanish Cedar.

The critical factor is the seal. Do the doors/lid seal tight enough to keep your collection @ 65-70 RH without losing the moisture to the atmosphere.

If the door/lid doesn't seal so well - make sure you figure out in advance how to fix the seal.

Also - if you go that route - how about some pics ---

Good Luck

Is there any way you can move this to the Ask Ron Thread so there's not a double post? Thanks!
