    Not to be too blunt, but even the addition of Spanish cedar is pretty useless in a tupper. It's historically been used for humidors because it retains moisture well. But when you have a Boveda in an airtight container, there's really no reason to use them. I don't buy that it "ages" cigars better. A controlled environment is the only thing that will do that. THe most important thing is to make sure that tupper gets filled up quick. You can use empty milk jugs or other tupperware to take up space until you have it at least 75% full. That will mean less air to humidify and less of a shock when you open it up.
    I’m really glad you said something. When I smelled them, I noticed the odor was way too strong. I purposely didn’t fill the tupp because I wanted to do a little more research on it so thank you for confirming a suspicion.
