First Time I Bought A Pound

[alexnc]

So, I just received the first pound I ever bought. Whew! That's a little bit of tobacco! Jarred it up and I should be set a while on this blend!

the way to do it

I figured I could fit it into two 16oz canning jars - I can usually pack a 2oz tin in a 4oz jar with an espresso tamper. Seemed like I needed 3 jars with only a light pressing. Do you fit a pound into 2? It's sort of a moist ribbon cut. I don't think I could have forced it into two.

It's kinda easy when you listen to the g'd up sound of Pioneer speakers bumpin' as I smoke on the pound....

Sutliff Match Victorian, after I burned a few ounces I decided I REAALLLY like it!

Good, glad you liked it. Also good that you got a pound, cause I see by your picture you smoke two pipes at a time.LOL

I like that too! I have about 8oz of that stashed away!

I usually split a pound between 4 16 oz. mason jars. That's for ribbon cut or pretty much anything besides a flake.

Thanks, I didn't want to compress the heck out of it. Sometimes I'm raking the second half of my 4oz jars with a fork to fluff it back up.

how many jars? It varies. My coins can fit in a half pound jar perfectly. Some pounds take 2 some take two plus a few masons. Though getting stuff by the pound is so the way to go. It's cheaper I swear most blends are better to slightly better in bulk. Especially GLPease blends. Everyone of those I've gotten in the little tin wasn't quite as nice as what I got in the 8oz coffee can tin. Key Largo has these huge pieces of cigar leaf that you can roll into a little prilla (looks like moose droppings frankly) which when smoked will pop out even more intense cigar notes.

Xmas morning. Had a day of cooking ahead of me (full English breakfast, meatball lasagna & tiramisu) and I had just won that T Rex suit at my company Xmas party. Wifey and I were getting into some Bellinis to get the juices going.

But, sure, I like to celebrate most days!

So I gotta be the guy to reminisce about the first time I bought a five pound bag of 5100.
Not gonna do it.

And to the op - the first pound is always the hardest, and most exhilarating. It’s a downward spiral from there.
Well done!
