I recently picked up enjoying a pipe. I have been averaging 4 smokes a week. I have picked up about 10 tins of tobacco, which at this pace, should last me quite a while.
I am buying multiples to start building a small cellar and I’ve learned that mason jars or vacuum bags can be great for long term storage. Variety is the spice of life, but I am hesitant to open multiple tins because I don’t want them to degrade in quality during the time it takes me to work through the active tins.
Should I move all the active tins to mason jars to maintain their quality? I’m hesitant to do this because I love looking at and opening the tins, but I don’t want to ruin tobacco as that can get expensive. Or will the tobacco maintain its quality for an extended period of time in an active tin? If so, how long on average? ( I know there are several variables to this question)
