Why would you fill it with crushed apple juice? Still is great looking though.

I've always been curious to the results of regular cedar. Can you elaborate gulfspray?

American or "aromatic cedar" is extremely aromatic and penetrating. Ever pull a sweater out of a cedar chest and slip it on? Spanish cedar is a more mild and less penetrating scent. It is also less sappy than aromatic cedar. I have not had any personal experience with cigars aged in aromatic cedar, but I have read in various magazines that it will ruin a cigar in no time. Apparently they start tasting like the cedar smells, masking all other flavors and tastes that the cigar might have previously had.
