My cousin invited me to pick up this modestly sized dead trunk from her house. Really, really heavy but spilts very easily and then the splits smell vaguely like some kind of minty candy. I guess it could be the wood or the fungus since the sapwood has broken down a bit as shown in pic. Bark comes off in thin strips like cedar but it seems way denser than cedar and smells nothing like it. Any ideas?
