mctinner1: indeed, it's not even close to some cellar I've seen. Just much more than I'd expected to get our of the drawers they'd been kept in 
kparker: they filled one large box (there's more than the camera could capture, plus of course the pipes themselves).

I have about 10 unopened tins. All the rest of my tobacco is bulk. Some of that is pre-blended, and most of it is bulk mixing tobaccos.
The more costly and processed of the blending tobaccos is Periqe and Latakia.
If and when I bring in more tobacco I will always see to it that I have some of these components on hand because they are integral players in most any blend I like and I think they will be safe in their packaging for a long time because they're either smoked or fermented and less likely (I think) to become something other than what they were when I got them, and without any extraordinary precautions.

Some excellent blends in there! Try hiding them away and not checking for a couple years, it'll be fun to rediscover what you have stashed away =)
Nice looking cellar. Have you gone overboard? No pipe tobacco is never going to be cheaper, and with some blends disappearing due to "our friends" at the FDA it's time to stock up.
jparker: peck levels are still a looooong way away
scrooge: haha indeed! I think this is why it surprised me. I had way less not that long ago 8O
John: they're all mixed on the photo (and some is not showing), but I store a smaller selection as rotation, and keep the cellar itself out of reach. I hope my future self will thank me one day
eric: not ashamed. Let's say, gladly surprised
pagan: Haha well, that's moving for you My wife realised the other day that we've lived in 7 houses over the last 5 years. So I'm getting the hang of it
derfatdutchman: yes, that's what sparked this acquisition spike, I'm afraid...
philobeddoe: that one doesn't leave my sight!
nate: Well. Organised chaos
