[QUOTE="DrumsAndBeer, post: 486693, member: 2403"] Question for the veterans who have been cellaring tobacco for a long time. I have been smoking a pipe off and on since I was 18, but it's only been over the last 6-7 years that I have been putting tobacco away for the future. I know that tobacco is best kept sealed air tight in a dry, dark, cool environment, but say if I had the air tight, dry & dark part covered, but my storage temps were less than ideal. I am talking central northern California garage temps that can range from 45-90 degrees through out any given year. I realize the pitfalls vacuumed sealed euro-tins losing their seals with temperature fluctuations and perhaps a couple other issues that could potentially arise, rust with humidity and such, but just how important or detrimental are the recommended 60-70 degree temps to the tobacco itself? I have read that tobacco goes through hell during processing and is stored in a variety of different climates prior to processing. Anyway, I have a spacious cabinet in my garage that would make a fantastic tobacco cellar, if not for the temp changes. Any of you long-term cellar guys store their stash in some other less than ideal place besides under their bed, in the guest room closet (which I don't have), or in a drawer next to their jock-strap & underwear? I'd like to actually be able to hang up a few more shirts & without having to sell of a portion of my stash. :lol!: [/QUOTE]
