The first thing to do is avoid storing your tobacco in plastic. This can cause the flavor of the tobacco to be altered, and it will also attract unwanted moisture.


The best option is to store your pipe tobacco in a glass container with a lid. You should use a glass jar that has a capacity of at least one ounce, but more is better. It doesn't matter what kind of glass you use as long as it's not plastic or metal. The only exception is if your tobacco has been sitting too long and needs to be 'aged' back into good condition before smoking again.


You can also use Mason jars or similar containers if they're available to you, but they tend to be less pretty than traditional glass jars or bottles.


If you're going to store your tobacco in a wooden box or tray, then this should be lined with newspaper instead of paper towels because these can absorb moisture from pipes and cause them to become sticky over time (especially if they're humidor trays).


 Storing your pipe tobacco is a bit of an art form. You need to know how to store it properly so that it will last as long as possible and not dry out or become too moist.


Here are some tips for storing your tobacco:


Keep your pipe in an airtight container. A good option is an old coffee can or even an empty jar with a lid. If you use a glass jar, make sure that it is kept very dry and that no moisture gets into the tobacco itself.


Place the jar on top of a piece of cloth or paper towels (or anything else that won't absorb moisture). This will keep it from being too moist and also help prevent any bacteria from growing in your jar.


Store your tobacco away from direct sunlight and away from areas where there's a lot of humidity such as bathrooms and kitchens. The sun can cause the flavors of your tobacco to fade quickly and humidity will cause them to rot faster still! More
