hide in plain sight. a pile if coolers in a basement is no strange sight. especially if you have sold beverages for a decade and pick up a cooler or two a year, right?

the tins (so far)



the pile of samples:



the stuff i'm planning to smoke soon (including jarred, unfinished tins, which kills me):



and the long stash:





left hand side of the second pic are large jars, so assume 6ish oz per.

couldn't start this thread without being willing to share, right? also wanted to count it.

about 60lb, not including the black cooler full of stuff i am still on first tries of. so probably 70?

to reiterate, she don't ask about the tobacco in any form, and i don't ask about the cosmetics, and we put bills first. it works for us. o)

what do you think i was doing while i rearranged my stash, yo!

also, i live in very real fear of substantial tax increases. i want to have years' worth to smoke on, so i can just drop coin on only the cigars that really really interest me. a pipe smoke can be an event, but a good cigar SHOULD be an event, if that makes sense.

I've always just used the tupp-a-dor for storage. One little Bodeva pack and leave the tins closed been working great for me for years. No rust or over drying, everything smokes great.

Any pipe tobacco I buy gets opened & put into a mason jar & labeled with the name & tin date immediately. I store it all on a shelf in my man room in the basement. Just me being my OCD self really, but it does make it easier to manage & store. I just wouldn't feel right having a bunch of open tins laying around for some reason. I wanna see a pic of your stash too, Sean! :)

Where do you get those small mason jars from? I see me getting back into pipes now that I've started reading the Pipe Forum. LOL
