    DAMN!!! MOLDY G & H DARK PLUG

    yeah, more than anything, this has gotten in my head. I didnt lose much here. It would be worse if it happened with aged expensive tobacco.

    DAMN!!! MOLDY G & H DARK PLUG

    thanks! I am going to toss this. A question and a concern linger though. I am very very confident that this mold was “in” the tobacco from the time i bought it. The jar was actually already used for some other tobacco prior. I switched it over when I got this one. No washing, just a wipe down...

    DAMN!!! MOLDY G & H DARK PLUG

    Interesting take!! Ive only been smoking a pipe for about a year or so. “cellaring” was always such a common topic!! With mcclelland, germains, macbaren, sutliff etc, I came around at a perfect time to be concerned with companies going out of business. its nice to be able to have some reserve...

    thanks. Im glad to hear that. Makes me feel like this was prob just a fluke and I dont need to get nuts with sanitizing or cross contamination etc

    DAMN!!! MOLDY G & H DARK PLUG

    i just bought some of that too, I love it. Im glad to hear it was a 1 off though. Seems like its always flakes and plugs. Ive never seen any moldy ribbon.

    DAMN!!! MOLDY G & H DARK PLUG

    you think its a bad assumption if no new mold in 6 mos to a year, that it must be good?

    DAMN!!! MOLDY G & H DARK PLUG

    i clean mason jars, but should probably do a better job, but I do have over a 100 jars all with same process, some from same box etc, varying ages, but none more than 3-5 years, and this had been only jar thankfully. admittedly, it worries me some and makes kind of paranoid. Ive heard people...
