Okay...I have CRS Syndrome and did one of those
things...I had a small humi (20-30 count) that I wasn't using because I have three much larger humi's so I put it up on top of my armoire to get it out of the way...then I bought about a dozen pipe tobacco samples from C&D (1 oz. samples) that came in plastic ziplocs...because I had no room to store the ziplocs I pulled down the humi and threw them in there figuring I'd taste them all in the next few days and figure what I wanted to store in a better place and which I didn't like, and pass those I didn't like on to someone else to try...I knew the humi wasn't a good place to store the stuff but I figured a few days wouldn't make a difference...and then I forgot about the humi with the samples because I'd put it back on top of my armoire and it sorta got lost amongst all the empty cedar cigar boxes...for 2 years...then I just happened to notice it the other day and pulled it down and discovered I still had 4 ziplocs worth of samples in it that I never tried and pulled them out to rehydrate them, BUT, the humidor now smelled like a blend of pipe tobaccos...arggghhhh...any ideas from any of you cigar or pipe experts on how to get the pipe tobacco smell out of the humidor so it can again be used for cigars, or just pitch it and chalk it up as a loss? Damn CRS...
