Everything you need to know
Black Lacquer
Spanish Cedar
The J.Hoover combines a glossy black lacquered finish with gold accents and an interior architecture made entirely of Spanish cedar. Its front glass door reveals the organization of the collection without needing to open it. Its 3 cedar drawers—accessible independently—allow for organizing up to 80 cigars by brand, size, or aging stage. The analog hygrometer, integrated into the front of the central drawer, is readable from the outside without any manipulation. Humidifier and 3 dividers included—ready for use upon receipt. Compact size: 24 × 24 × 24 cm.
J.Hoover — black & cedar architecture
Three Spanish cedar drawers — each level is a micro-environment
The entire interior structure of the J.Hoover is made of Spanish cedar (Cedrela odorata)—walls, bottom, top tray, and the 3 drawers themselves. This choice goes beyond mere aesthetics: Spanish cedar possesses natural hygroscopic properties that allow it to absorb excess humidity and release it when the air dries out—a passive regulator that works continuously in each drawer.
Its aromatic terpenes gradually migrate into the stored cigars, enriching their organoleptic complexity over the long term. The cedar also provides protection against tobacco beetles (Lasioderma serricorne). By structuring the collection across 3 distinct levels, each drawer constitutes an independent storage micro-environment—useful for separating different aromatic profiles or stages of aging.
Why choose the J.Hoover
Black lacquer & cedar — the contrast that defines the J.Hoover
The J.Hoover deliberately plays on the contrast between its exterior and interior. Outside: the glossy black lacquer, sober and assertive, with gold hinges and details that make a discreet statement on a desk or living room furniture. Inside: the natural blonde Spanish cedar, visible as soon as the glass door is viewed—warmth of natural wood in direct opposition to the black lacquer.
This contrast is not just aesthetic. The front glass door reveals the 3 organized drawer levels, the analog hygrometer on the front, and the collection itself—a humidor meant to be placed on a desk to be viewed as much as used. Cubic format 24 × 24 × 24 cm: compact in volume, generous in capacity.

J.Hoover dual access: the humidor features access via the front glass door for the 3 drawers, and access via the top lid for the upper compartment. This top compartment houses the humidifier and can also be used for cigars currently being smoked or accessories (cigar cutter, matches). The glass door remains the primary access point to preserve accumulated humidity.
Mandatory seasoning for new cedar: the J.Hoover features 3 drawers and a top tray made of cedar—a larger surface area of new wood than most compact humidors. Without 24 to 48 hours of prior seasoning, the interior would absorb moisture from your cigars during the first loading. This unique step is crucial for long-term storage quality.

Preserve humidity — resist opening: every time the glass door is opened, some of the humidity accumulated inside escapes. The analog hygrometer on the front and the glass door are specifically designed to limit openings to what is strictly necessary. Consult the hygrometer and admire your collection from the outside—open only to take a cigar or refill the humidifier.
