I just bought some of my first packages of tobaccos 7 seas black and I am wondering if I can leave them in the package or have to put them in a jar?

Depends on how much you plan to smoke it, and it's also really just up to you. If you're going to smoke it up within the next month or so, I'd just leave it in the tin.
I typically only jar stuff I don't plan to smoke up somewhat soon, but it's all up to you. I've jarred stuff immediately after opening and finished it within a month.
So I reckon, it's kind of up to you,but if you don't plan to smoke it up within 6 months, the longer the tin is open the more I'd suggest jarring.

I typically go ahead and jar mine. It's just a habit and I dont have to worry about it. But like CCW said, if you're gonna smoke it up within a month then it should be fine. I constantly change up blends from day to day so most end up sitting over a month.
A long time ago I made it a habit to jar up a newly opened tin almost immediately.
After finding a couple of tins that had been opened about 15 months earlier, it just made sense.

Seven Seas Black will be fine in the original tin for at least a few months after opening. It's heavily cased, so it loses its moisture slower than non-aromatics. The unopened tins will be fine for decades as long as you keep them from rusting.
You didn't specify how many packages or if they were tins or pouches. Sealed tins i'd just age until opened, then smoke them up soon or jar them. If these are pouches, I'd smoke out of one pouch and maybe jar the rest, depending on how fast you smoke. Those are just off the cuff answers, but that's my quick response.
I usually don't bother jarring Those tobaccoes in pouches if I'm planning on smoking them by the end of the month,this also depends on how fresh they were the day of purchase.
Since it takes some time before I finish them I bought a few jars as shown in the pic.

I like the idea of jars and keeping several different types of tobacco on hand. For a large jar that does not have a humidification device in the lid (stone, metal disk, etc), how do you keep the humidity up? I ordered a small glass tobacco jar that had a humidity gauge mounted in the wooden lid, had a silicon liner to keep out the air and also a loose stone in the shape of a leaf. I assume I would wet the stone, but I don't think it would be a good idea to place it somewhere in the jar with the loose tobacco. Or am I wrong. Appreciate any tips/tricks on how you keep humidity up in storage jars, etc, that have no humidification device. Thanks in advance
