I recently purchased two of GH&Co's tobaccos – Kendal Kentucky and Dark Bird's Eye.
As a newbie puffer this was my first experience with shag cut tobacco and I'd never seen tobacco cut this fine. It was almost as fine as sewing thread.
More particularly, both tobaccos weren't just moist, they were soaking wet like they'd had a long bath in what I presume was PG.
I have cellared both tobaccos and have not yet smoked either.
What I have wondered is should I uncellar these tobaccos and dry them out well before I put them back in mason jars because they are going to be soaking wet whenever I open them and I also wonder if tobacco this wet wouldn't invite mould.
These tobaccos are so wet that I think you'd waste a can of butane trying to light them.
I read the reviews of both at TobaccoReviews.com and no one has mentioned how wet the tobacco was so I'm a bit confused. Did I get a batch that escaped quality control?
Any advice would be appreciated.
