Cedar trays to keep your humidor tidy

Cigar humidors are the best choice for cigar enthusiasts to store their premium cigars in the best possible conditions. At Humidores Wacota, in addition to offering a wide range of humidor models, we also provide devices to help ensure optimal cigar storage. Among these accessories are cedar trays for loose cigars and cradles for humidors.

Cedar wood trays for cigar humidors help keep the humidor organised. They allow cigars to be arranged by size, vitola, tobacco company, cigar strength, tasting notes, aromas, and flavours. Moreover, these trays are removable from the humidor. This means they can be taken out to get a better view of the cigars, allowing you to choose one to enjoy without having to keep the humidor open for too long, which could cause a loss of humidity.

Specifically, the cedar wood trays we manufacture at Humidores Wacota are made of solid cedar wood. As we have explained on numerous occasions, cedar is the best wood for preserving cigars. In fact, it is the material we use to line the interior of all our humidors.

Functional and elegant cedar trays

From our 40 plus years of experience, we have found with confidence that cedar wood, which is a tropical wood, helps to maintain the ideal humidity for the preservation of cigars. In addition, the type of cedar we use (known as bossé cedar) extends the life of the humidor: as it has very little resin, it does not appear over time in the humidor (or on the trays).

Furthermore, cigar trays add elegance to the cigar cellars and humidors, making them not only a functional element, but also a decorative one. It’s an elegant way to offer guests a cigar without having to bring the humidor (especially for large models that are difficult to move). Just take out the beautiful cedar tray with the cigars you want to offer to your friends and show them off!

The trays we manufacture at Humidores Wacota are equipped with vertical dividers. This allows compartments to be created with the desired dimensions and arranged in the way that best suits each smoker’s needs and the type of cigars they wish to store in them.Additionally, we make holes or elongated slits at the base to ensure proper moisture circulation through them, allowing it to reach all the cigars.

Custom Tray Manufacturing

In addition to standard trays for our models, at Humidores Wacota, we offer a customised cedar tray manufacturing service. All our trays are made of solid cedar and have a height of 5 centimetres, allowing two rows of cigars to be placed. This ensures even humidity distribution across all cigars without excessive weight pressing down on the lower ones. If the trays were taller, accommodating more cigars, the humidity would struggle to reach the lower cigars, affecting their preservation. Additionally, stacking too many cigars on top of one another could damage the ones at the bottom.

We invite you to discover our collection of cigar humidifiers.

Regarding the other tray dimensions, customers can choose according to their preferences. They can determine both the length and depth of the tray in increments of 5 centimetres. Cigar enthusiasts can select tray sizes based on their specific needs, whether for longer or shorter cigars, thinner or thicker ring gauges, as well as according to the size of their humidor.

To further adapt cigar trays to each smoker’s needs, we manufacture the vertical dividers with slots. This allows customers to move and position them as desired to create compartments that suit their cigar sizes.

Cedar trays can be ordered at the same time as the humidor for cigars is manufactured. However, it is also possible to place an order for cigar humidifier cradles after the humidifier has already been purchased, depending on the need for one or more trays. Even months or years later, as a cigar enthusiast expands their collection and acquires a wider variety of cigars, they may find it beneficial to add trays for better organisation. Whenever that moment comes, we will be delighted to craft the trays they require.
