I understand, for long term aging, that pipe tobacco needs to be stored in a cool dark place for best results. I also understand that you do not want too much humidity. For example, a cigar requires between 65% and 75% relative humidity. Pipe tobacco requires around 40% - 50% relative humidity.
If my cellar is a constant 45%, and a the seal of a tin breaks, unknowingly of course, would the tobacco not be safe. I understand the aging would stop / change, but the tobacco would not dry out... would it?
