如果你是一個雪茄客,那么你需要一個安全的避風港來存放雪茄。一個精良的雪茄盒,可以模仿世界雪茄制造之都的熱帶條件。一個完美的選擇就是丹尼爾·馬歇爾(Daniel Marshall)出品的雪茄保濕盒。也許他看上去很年輕,別人覺得他在這個行業沒有什么經驗,實際上,馬歇爾從事雪茄保濕盒的制造已經有40年了。
1982年他就賣出了第一個雪茄保濕盒。從那時起,他不斷完善工藝,制作出可以使用數十年的雪茄盒。馬歇爾的產品在《雪茄愛好者》雜志社組織的雪茄保濕盒測試中多次接受測試,每次都表現出色。雜志社有一些編輯使用的就是馬歇爾的產品,有的在使用20多年后仍然處于完美的運行狀態。
馬歇爾制作的雪茄盒大部分都是傳統的長方形。這次介紹的百寶箱將工藝提升到一個不同的水平。我們喜歡它的弧形蓋子,不但美觀,而且實用。當你從辦公室回到家,發現真貴的雪茄保濕盒蓋子上居然放著一個小玩意或者什么東西,比如電視機的遙控器,是不是很氣憤。這款雪茄保濕盒的弧形蓋子消除了你的擔心。
雪茄保濕盒采用西班牙雪松木內飾,百寶箱有一種樹瘤飾面可供選擇。這個叫瓦沃納( vavona )的樹是來自歐洲的紅木樹根。這款雪茄盒非常大,大概可以放150支雪茄。零售價是1495美元。它的使用壽命足以讓您傳給兒子或者女兒。

If you smoke cigars, you need a safe haven in which to store them, a good humidor built to mimic the tropical conditions of the cigarmaking capitals of the world. A perfect choice is one of the items made by Daniel Marshall. He looks too young to have been doing this for so long, but Marshall has been making humidors for 40 years. He sold his first in 1982, and since then he has perfected his craft, turning out humidors built to last for decades. Marshall’s products have been put to the test several times in humidor tests organized by Cigar Aficionado, performing at the very top in each battle. Some of our editors own Daniel Marshall humidors that remain in perfect operational condition after more than 20 years of use.
Most of his humidors are crafted in the traditional rectangular shape, but Marshall’s Treasure Chest (pictured) takes his craft to a different level. We love its curved lid not only for its esthetics, but its practicality. Nothing is more infuriating than coming home from the office and finding a knickknack or other foreign object placed atop one of our precious boxes. (“Junior! Isn’t that the remote control sitting on my humidor?”) The curved lid of the Treasure Chest eliminates that temptation.?
With an interior of Spanish cedar, the Treasure Chest is available in the pictured vavona burl finish, a wood that comes from the root of a European redwood tree. And it’s large, which comes in handy, as we always seem to have too many cigars to store in our humidors. The Daniel Marshall Limited Edition Treasure Chest 2021 will hold 150 cigars, retails for $1,495, and should last long enough for you to pass down to a son or daughter.?
