Starting a stockpile/cellar

[smeigs]

There is plenty of good advice and Im sure everyone has covered everything. I personally use glass ball jars and store them in an old wine cabinet that my wife converted into a tobacco cellar. I keep it in my extra bed room where its nice and cool and not exposed to the sun. Just make sure to keep them sealed and in a cool dry place and you should have no issues. VA's typically age better than english or aromatics. By this I mean, you can usually age VA's for a longer period of time with better results. English blends will age well but usually only take a year or two before you should start smoking them. The hard part is waiting!! Good luck and post some pics!

I'm just shocked at the pile of Aylesbury Luxury Flake! I rarely find it. Certainly not in L. A.

A very nice stash for sure Harris, I have a long way to go before I'm even close to that amount. I can only order a few tins at a time since I live in Canada and order from the states. Slow and steady. ::

Tins or sealed bags. Mason jars are okay for bulks until you have to move, especially if travelling via airplane, it's a rather heavy and fragile affair.
Like some of the others have said, figure what you really like BEFORE stockpiling. I had a change of tastes once or twice. As easy as it can be trying to unload 2-3 pounds of baccy, it was a bit stressful......
