Storage

My fingers fell, and posted this unnecessary reply.

I'm more intrigued as to why pipe tobacco doesn't need humidified. In my local B&M, they keep pipe tobacco in large jars with firmly sealing lids. Thinking about it, chewing tobacco is usually kept in the same type of pouch - with that whatever-it's-called lining, and chewing tobacco seems moist. I'm guessing the tobacco keeps itself humidified? Who here can answer these inane questions?

While you wouldn't want your pipe tobacco to be on the dash of your car for a month in the sun, it also doesn't need to be 70%ish Rh like cigars.

For example, some black twist that I have, you actually cut it with a scissors, or razor and let it dry out before your roll it into ribbons. Kinda like dry boxing, because it is almost too moist to smoke off the log.

Levi Garrett chew for example, is oily as shit, however elephant butts is dry as shit. I think there is never the anticipation of someone dragging out a sack of chew for a year. Cigars on the other hand, you don't want them to loose their oil over time which is conceivable.

There. There's some answers that may or may not be useful at all.
