Just a pic of my modest cellar after almost two month of smoking. Even though I am only a couple months in, I know for a fact that I love it!

Hey travelergypsy - nice stash you have there! I'm a fellow newbie to the pipe smoking community, and I've fallen for the piping pleasures as well. I'm hoping to build my tobacco cellar over time, and I've already got a head start by visiting as many local tobacco stores and pipe shops as time and budget will allow. So far I've enjoyed it immensely. I admire your tin collection already lol. What's lurking in your mason jars???
Right on! My "cellar" used to fit in a shoe box and now it takes up a couple of drawers. I have a few pictures showing the progression. Good times.
I'd be happy to help anyone who's struggling under the weight of their excess pipe tobacco. Totally benevolent motives here..
The left is English blends (mostly C&D) The middle is Virginias, and the far right is Aros. (I started out with Aros, hence the predominant Aro theme, but I have since moved on to mostly Virginias with the occasional English to mix it up. For the time being, my Aros are going to get lonely, and cellar for a while. Hopefully they shall improve.)
I'd say you have a great start. I've started out heavily preferring Virginias and English blends.
If that's the case, that might help explain why I can only ever taste chemicals. I can taste some of the intended flavors, but overall, it's nust chemicals.
Good job! Looks like you're off to a great start. Before ya know it your whole closet and dresser will be full of tins and jars and you'll consider adding an extra storage room in your house so you can keep your tobacco climate controlled. It's not enough, it will never be enough, you'll need more, just to breathe, to feel alive!!!!! Ahhhhhh yes, welcome to this completely sane hobby of ours. ; )
