Can't remember where I picked up the alcohol. But either I think will off-gas faster then the plastic. I'll try a solutino of backing soda and water. Can only smell it when it's been shut over night then opened.

Bob, while the quantities of bleach recommended vary, I've seen the bleaching advice repeated in a number of places, including a few online cigar vendors. Seems it's another one of those dubious "cigar things" that gets parroted often.

The baking soda solution worked for me. That and leaving it sit outside on a nice day with the lid open for about 4 hours.

Now it just smells like cigars.
