This is a modifed recipe that I found online for Cigar City's Humidor Series which are several types of beers that are aged on Cedar. The cedar brings out the grapefruit/piney taste of the hops and is very subtle. As per Cigar City the type of cedar used is spanish cedar which is from South America and is part of the mahogony family..not American Cedar. Also, be sure to add untreated cedar. I was going to add it to the secondary and taste it after 2 weeks to see how much came out into the beer.
