So I can NOW honestly say I REALLY enjoy pipe smoking. I've been smoking an equal amount of aromatics, virginias and english. I found out that prior to my discovering this, pipe tobacco used to be much cheaper. Before April 09, a 50g tin of FVF was $5 :shock: So I can only say I wish I had found this sooner. So Ive been buying my favorite blends in large quantities and putting them away for just in case. If I buy something that comes in bulk I put it in a clean mason jar, close tightly and put it in a cardboard box in the top shelf of my closet.
While I'm not as much concerned about aging as I am about just having it around for backup, is this a good way(cardboard box in closet) and place to store it?
I bought a few lbs of Christmas cookie and a tin of Capt Black. I heard aros don't do well with aging, but since Im just storing and don't expect it to get better, will I LOSE any of the flavor by storing aromatics for long periods of time?
Fortunatley, while stocking up some of the blends I heard age well.
I bought 16oz of FVF but unfortunatley, it didn't come in a tin. I used mason jars, put the lid on, put the wax paper over the lid, closed it tight, then put the jar in a zip lock. Will this help?
I bought a few tins of other stuff. Should I store these in zip locks as well?
Anyone else have advice on storing tobacco?
