Yes, Woody, a lb would be the next step in TAD. Think of a tobacco that you really like that has a VA base, buy in bulk, jar it, and wait for the magic of a full aging cycle, 5 yrs. Of course you may not want to age it all- maybe put back half of it.

Another way to say this is to buy two tins instead of one, one to smoke and one to age.

Currently at about 115 pounds, most is in the 3 to 5 year range. This is a retirement cellar, it'd be a lot easier to plan if I knew just how many years I've got left Wink

I've stashed about 50 tins ,,,a wide variety, some I'm afraid I won't care for down the road as my tastes are changing,,,

I've packed away about 5 pounds of bulk, all Virginias,,

Very piddlin compared to even the most modest of hoarders here, Embarassed

My cellar comes in just short of the 40 lb. mark once I jar the 9 lb. bulk order I placed today. I have 200+ tins and the rest is bulk packed in mason jars.

Interesting topic. It's fun to see the different lengths pipesters go to to feel secure. drool

Approaching 40 lbs mostly tins, less than 10 lbs in bulk so far. Although I have smoked a pipe for almost 40 years, this cellaring thing is new to me, only got started in about 2006.

Apparently (and this is news to me) over 11 lbs, not counting what's in jars and baggies (which might bring it closer to 20 lbs):

With the proposed new tax hike on top of the recent one I decided it's time to go ahead and add some bulks to my cellar. I purchased a 5 lb bag of MacBaren's VA #1 and a 5 lb bag of McClellands 2015 and got them "canned" this past weekend bringing my cellar to 40 pounds and 8 ounces. I'm heading over to Statesville this weekend so will add some more from JRs (if the wife hasn't cancelled the CC yet). Buy it while you can, guys, it's just going up from here until they ban it altogether Shocked .
