[QUOTE="Slide, post: 288556, member: 2101"] Air is snuff's enemy, not age. It doesn't necessarily improve with age, like pipe tobacco, except if you get factory fresh snuff. That seems to take a little while to mature into what it is meant to be. Properly stored snuff will last for decades. That would be stored and rarely opened. ( exceptions to every rule - some Molens snuff should be used faster than that) I use a 3 tier storage system. Bulks go into a system of 3 size of mason jars. 16 oz - 200 grams, 8 oz - 100 grams and 4 oz - 50 grams. My snuff box is filled from the 4 oz jar. If I bought a 500 gram bulk I would store it in one 16 oz, two 8 oz and two 4 oz jars. After the two 4 oz jars are emptied I transfer the contents of an 8 oz jar to the two 4 oz jars. By basically opening the 4 oz jar only when I fill my snuff box it has no scent degradation over time. I picked up that system from Ermtony. I think he has been snuffing longer than I have been alive. [/QUOTE]
