Tobacco management

[Searock Fan]

Pipe tobacco basics: The flavor of the tobacco comes mainly from the oils it contains. When it gets too dry the oils start to break down and the tobacco looses flavor.

+1 on both the quality leather pouches & the Pipery's PocketJars

The leather pouch (this one folds instead of rolls) maintained tobacco from Houston to Virginia and back in the trunk of a GoldWing motorcycle through all weather (60s-90s) over the last 2 weeks.

Those PocketJars hold 3-4 bowls and use standard mason jar lid-combos if you need to replace the logo-lids

Ziploc bags. That’s what I put my days tobacco in. I also use more smaller jars rather than one big one.

Tell me more about that folding pouch?

Found it! I picked it up from P&C some time ago with one of their accessory-bundle sales. "pick a pouch, 2x tins, a lighter..." kind of thing for one price that beats their individual costs. You can find it as the 2nd pouch listed on this linked page, called 'compact box pouch'

it folds flat when empty, but here's a picture of it opened up for filling (or emptying) It certainly keeps the tobacco fresh a long time.
