Ruined humidor?
Hi board- I recently bought my first humidor only to have my room mates put a few of their flavored cigars in it after I finished the seasoning process. They had no idea what it would do, but the humidor now smells vaguely of peach. Is the humidor ruined, or is there a way to 'reset' it (for lack of a better word)? The cigars couldn't have been in there for more than 24 hours or so. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi, new guy.
I don't feel that you have a problem. It's not like they threw in a urinal cake or mothballs. That vague chemical smell that sort of smells like peaches will dissipate over a bit of time. If you're really concerned about it or it doesn't go away, put your cigars in a ziploc for a few days, and put a plate with some baking soda in your humi. Should be fine in a few days. Granted, you may be hypersensitive, and you may detect faint traces of it on your smokes. |

De nada.
Once again, welcome to the place. Visit the smoking post, and start a thread introducing yourself, if you would. |

Welcome!
Brian gave you good advice regarding the humidor and on visiting the Smoking Post!
