    Short term tobacco storage questions

    Pipe smoking in the south seems like a struggle. I have never had to deal with tobacco getting moist from being open. Always the other way around which is beneficial cause I like it drier. Last time I was in the south I only smoked my pipe twice and it was so hot I couldn’t stand holding my...

    Dry tobacco equal dry mouth?

    Dry mouth= Drink water. Easy fix. From beyond smokes great on the dry side. Sounds like your hydration needs attention. I have been there myself when working a lot and not taking care of myself. When I am properly hydrated the tobacco tends to taste better too. Win win.

    Best Smelling Non-Aromatic Blends

    Humble opinion noted. Unfortunately this relationship ain’t my first rodeo. Trying to find a balance between doing it better than the last time and not giving into unnecessary crap. This, I will give on though. She is pretty cool most of the time and beautiful all the time so I’ll cut her some...

    Same here with the room note. Here I thought they all smelled good while I was smoking them. Apparently thats not the case lol.

    Did Half & Half Change, Too?

    Wish I could have tried the old half and half before my time. I was confused when I purchased some a while back. Smelt like cheap tobacco and smoked like… well, cheap tobacco. Crazy thing is though is you can get haunted bookshop or the like for cheaper than a pouch of h&h.

    Best Smelling Non-Aromatic Blends

    I have been wondering about this one for a while actually. As much as she compliments the smell of Gawiths Burley and Bright being chocolaty that sounds right up the alley. I think this might be my next purchase.

    Now thats a good suggestion. Also a great excuse to make a family trip to the b&m.

    Luckily mine smokes cigars with me when I can smoke outside. She prefers Maduro so she has good taste in tobacco and doesn’t mind the smell. Some blends smoked indoors seem to bother her though.

    Thanks for the recommendations. Funny that she has complained about goopy aros as well. I thought that would go over well and tried a few to see how they were. She was disgusted by BRM. I’m kinda glad cause I couldn’t have smoked through a tin of that myself anyway. Makes for a nice potpourri on...

    Best Smelling Non-Aromatic Blends

    She hasn’t complained about it yet. I have actually been meaning to hit you up to tell you I retract my statement about it being an “okay” blend. I just burned through a couple ounces of it and was suprised how much I like it. I think I might have been burnt out on burley when I received it...

    Looks like I need to crack into some of my Virginia blends. I rarely am in the mood for virginias but this does seem appropriate considering they do smell like bread.

    Best Smelling Non-Aromatic Blends

    Yeah Gawith and Hoggarth Burley and Bright is amazing. Taste and smells like dark chocolate. She said half and half smells like cheap tobacco when I burned through a pouch a while back lol. I can’t say I disagree with her. Thats one I tried to like but not to my liking at all. Ill check out...

    Best Smelling Non-Aromatic Blends

    Recently I have been looking for more pleasant smelling blends as my lady started complaining about my OJK Blue Label. She kept saying it smells like a strong tobacco then started leaving the room when I was smoking. I finally asked her if it stinks and she said it does but she didn’t want to...

    Cellar Noob PSA: Bulk vs. Tins vs. Jars

    That makes sense. I have never been bothered by broken flake cause I always rub them out anyway so I have never thought about that much.

    Cellar Noob PSA: Bulk vs. Tins vs. Jars

    I have used mason jars for flakes and never run into any issues. Curious why you say this.

    Very nice. Mine is on the way. It has to make the trek to Alaska so it will be a little while before I get to try it. Definitely let me know how it is!

    Mold on Kajun Kake?

    Man, that is a bummer. I can’t say for sure if thats mold or not. I did have some big and burley that was about six months old that looked just like this. I tossed it cause I didn’t think it was worth taking the chance. Mine was bulk so I didn’t consider contacting c&d but yours being from a...
