Ghosting Leather Tobacco Pouches

[aspiring_sage]

Title edited. See Rule 9.

I’ve had a couple of those leather pouches with rubber lining for holding tobacco.

I put Captain black cherry into my first one, and I think I ghosted it. I’ve washed it and washed it, but I can still smell the cherry.

I’m still learning what I like, trying different, aromatic’s and mild English blends. I want to use my pouch, but I’m worried about lingering smells/tastes.

I like the idea of a leather pouch, it’s fancy.

Am I overthinking this? Does anyone dedicate tobacco pouches to different blends? Any other thoughts someone wants to share on the subject?

Thanks!

Unconventional, but I'm known to put tobacco in plastic baggies before putting them in a pouch (for options, deter extreme drying, and to avoid an unwanted haunt).

Also, while some may scoff, I like a little English and cherry aromatic parfait on occasion.

NOT unconventional at all
That’s what I do.
Keeping them in plastic baggies means I can carry 2-3 blends

I only smoke VA and VaPers and i still usually baggy i first just so it’s less messy amd mote importantly it doesn't dry out if i leave it in there.

I re-use plastic tobacco pouches and put any tobacco in them, although I’d try and put closer stuff in, like an English into an old dark fired pouch, however, I’m not worried about a TINY transfer of flavor that could happen. However, the baggie idea above would work…

Even without new measures, does the ghost persist when you're smoking from that pouch?

I didn’t think of that. I should try something like reusing the cherry pouch with a VA and see if it even matters….

Since I currently only smoke two tobaccos, I have one leather pouch for each. The one for the Prince Albert doesn't seem to have ghosted. The one for the C&D Dark Fired Kentucky has.

Not sure I ever wrapped anything with a strong smell in leather before. Anything that I will eat/drink/smoke usually gets wrapped in cling wrap or Al foil.

had that kind of pouch and who ever took it better be enjoying it, but although the bag would smell of a strange mélange of whatever tobaccos I had stored in it I never saw any evidence that even with mild blends of the tobacco being effected by the ghost. Even blends that have a flavor profile of water would not have any noticeable changes when the last tenant of the pouch was a lat bomb.
