Welcome from S.W Michigan. Nothing wrong with cigars but im glad i found pipes too. I get way more enjoyment from my pipes and i can puff them more because of the lower cost. This is a wonderful site to learn about all things pipe related with knowledgeable people that are eager to help.
I just got my tobacco order in and had ordered a few pounds of the same blends so i thought i would see how much i could fit in a quart jar. Not as good as chasingembers i was able to fit a pound in a quart jar. I used my sanitized coffee mug to smash/press down the tobacco as i went.
I like mine rubbed out seems to burn better for me. First coin tobacco i tryed. loved the beautiful tin smell and the look of all those beauties in the tin with such care.
The perfect pipe has been every pipe i bought until i bought the next one. Now its the one i have packed and ready to relax with. A pipe in the hand is worth 2 "perfect" 1's on a website lol. Enjoy and buy the pipes that haunt your dreams and it will all work out.

Not if it was inside the ship. A bunch of buoyant stuff got dragged to the deep inside the sinking steel ship. Then eventually gets water logged and settels to the bottom.
This came today. Its been awhile since my last order and i was trying to smoke through some older blends. With 2lbs Mac baren vanilla cream, 1lbs of sutliff vanilla custard, 8 oz arango bulkin supreme, and a few tins of Presbyterian.
Short answer depending on blends and type of tin but generally safe for a few weeks to maybe a month at most in open tin. If your not going to finish it in that time frame better to jar it up.
like 1 a week and thats just the ones i noticed. Such a good group of people on this site. In a world of me first and doom and gloom it's so refreshing to know kindness still shines out.
