Spanish Cedar is also known as Cigar-box Cedar, as this was one of its traditional uses. The wood's natural aroma repels insects, and the high resin count makes it very weather and rot resistant. Due to its low density, the lumber is quite lightweight. Source from certified sources that grow high quality sustainable Spanish Cedar. Special attention is paid during our kiln drying process to eliminate warpage and weeping. Due to the unique nature of wood products, no two pieces of wood have the same grain or color. We match each piece as close as possible, but cannot guarantee perfect boards.
