How Tightly Should Tobacco Be Packed in Jars For Long Term Storage?
The title says it all. I have 64 Oz. of tobacco to jar up. My meager experience is every ounce of weight fills roughly 4 oz. of space reasonably tightly. Less than I'd pack the pipe, but not loose by any stretch. My McClelland stash has arrived... Most of it'll go into quart canning jars, but...- phreon

My McClelland Haul / Who Is the Best Producer of Virginias Now?
I'm very much a pipe smoking neophyte. Having tried samples where I can, I began to see a recurring theme - McClelland tobaccos. I hadn't been on the site in a while, so I missed the rumors, but a friend shared the news about their closing. Having the tax return in hand, I managed to find my...- phreon

What Do You Do With Tobaccos You Don't Particularly Care For (But Don't Hate)?
Do you store them away for a future try? Smoke them to get rid of them? Throw them into a campfire? Give them away? Pitch them? Offer them to Michipeshiu during backcountry canoeing trips? I'm curious what you fine folks do with the red-headed step child tobaccos you come into possession of...- phreon

Sudden Sour Taste?
I've been trying out different tobacco samples. I got to one that I know didn't get great reviews, but hey, why not try it? "McClelland McTruffle". It started ok, but about half way through, the flavor started getting weak and I started noticing a sour taste. I couldn't tell where it was...- phreon

The Newer Smoker and Nicotine?
I've been pipe smoking infrequently for about 5 years or so. Before that, I'd infrequently smoke a cheap cigar or Backwood while camping, at a bonfire, on a nice fall hike, etc., mostly randomly. I've never smoked regularly, never touched a cigarette. I've been slowly increasing, but still, I...- phreon

A few quick questions about storing multiple samples.
I've been using bail-top jars for storing my tobacco. However, I have a bunch of 1 oz. samples coming which begs the question, "What is a good way to store these"? I don't mean cellaring of course, but I have enough on the way (I went a bit nuts) that it'll take some time to rotate through them...- phreon

Tinderbox Reserve 1928 - Is there anything even close to it?
When I first started pipe smoking and stumbled through tobaccos almost at random, I was lucky enough to come across and order a tin of Tinderbox Reserve 1928. I've been smoking more lately, trying to branch out, try new things, but I keep coming back to 1928. It smells great in the tin with...- phreon
