[QUOTE="Puff Daddy, post: 190487, member: 3"] I started out buying a bunch of everything and now, after several years, I have it narrowed down to a handful of favorites. First off I have enough tins and jars full of this and that to smoke for several years, not counting the stuff I'm intentionally cellaring. My daily consumption is two small bowls on average. Most of my pipes are group 3 and 4. A pound of tobacco goes a long way. The stuff I'm intentionally cellaring I hope to build to a supply that will last me 30 years, until I'm about 80. If I attain that level of stock soon, before the stuff become impossible to get or too cost prohibitive to buy, then I'm probably going to be holding out hope that it is still smokeable that far down the road. If I'm still kickin beyond 80 and I've smoked it all up I guess I'll do like the old man PB used to know who'd stuff fallen oak leaves in a mangled old pipe and not give a damn. What I'm presently cellaring in bulk: GH & co Brown Pigtail GH & co Curly Cut Regular GH & co Coniston Cut Plug unscented SG FVF SG Medium Virginia Uhle's 00 Uhle's Perfection Plug I'd like to add a few more pounds each of Uhle's 00 and SG Medium Virginia, the others I think I'm good on now. There are a few other blends that I have a pound or two put away here and there, but the above list is my core and what I wouln't want to be without. [/QUOTE]
