I hope I am not been a pest but I have one more question and then I will but out for awhile. Ihave five different aromatic in pouches and I wonder if I should leave them inpouch or transfer them to tobacco air tight jars |

They'll dry out pretty fast in a pouch (although some aromatics contain enough propylene glycol to keep them moist for decades). Tobacco jars are nice and look really neat, but in a pinch a tupperware container does a great job too. |

most aromatic blends are too "wet" to smoke and need some air/dry time to get a decent smoke also, in my experience they take a long time to dry out, so i would just leave them in the pouch. |

Rather than re-invent the wheel, you might want to use the search function. I used keywords "aging tobacco", selected 'and' for keyword options, and under "Look in:" choose 'subject lines'. Narrowing your search like that will give you more precise results. |

When I first started smoking pipes, I put my pouches into a tupperware container. When the weather got very dry, I put an open baggy with a damp sponge in beside the pouches to keep the moisture level just right. It worked just fine. It was always a great pleasure to open the container just to smell the combination of scents! Now I use jars to cellar my tobacco, but it's not necessary at first, in my opinion. |
