I can imagine that cork would absorb moisture very well, but as far a flavor?...
These are good points, and here are my concerns more extrapolated:
A) We all know that Spanish Cedar holds a relative humidity point of 70% - that's why it's so popular for humidors in the first place. Cork, on the other hand... so it will absorb humidity - to what point? Will it also release it? I don't know the answer to this.
Spanish Cedar smells amazing, and this is another thing that we typically count on when opening our humidors, as well as imparting some essence to our sticks. Is cork going to have the same effect? This I strongly doubt.
Is it an antique humidor? I was reading on the CA website that they used cork to line some during the 20's and 30's. I don't know about performance. But it would be cool to have one.
