72% RH is ideal for premium cigars you store in a glass-topped humidor, drafty wood humidor as well as non-plastic travel humidor or cigar case. Use one single for every 25 cigars yours can hold. Protects cigars in one 300-count humidor or multiple smaller ones, especially wood humidors with a tight seal, tupperdors, acrylic humidors or Boveda Humidor Bags. 72% RH is ideal to keep cigars fresh in a glass-topped humidor, a drafty wood humidor as well as a non-plastic travel humidor or cigar case.
In any event, use quality jars with good rubber seals. These seals do have a limited life expectancy, but that life is several, if not many years. I recently bought a couple of antique jars, and while I have no idea how old the rubber seals were, they were quite brittle and useless as seals. I’ve kept some tobacco in modern jars for upwards of 7 years, with no sign of deterioration of the seals, so good quality rubber will last at least that long, if kept in a cool location.
It may be you will be able to smoke all remaining before the mold gets enough water to wreak havoc. There is a difference between an air tight tin and a vacuum sealed bag with all the air evacuated out. A sealed tin still has a small amount of air left in it. This allows the tobacco to age; the chemical reactions that take place in aging require some air to get going. A plastic bag with all the air removed will not have enough air left for the reactions to start. For bulk tobacco storage mason or Ball [brand] jars with good rubber seals work very well as they are air tight and keep the contents from drying out.

This bold vitalizing fragrance rides atop this distant notation of aged wood, soft tart pungency and docile musty barbequed spice. Breathing in its air the tactile effect is stirring by all accounts, signifying that Bag End’s accommodations should prove to be quite obliging. Overall, I would categorize Bag End as a mild to medium strength light English with a subtle burley influence. The taste is that of natural tobacco with no additional flavorings. A quality English style blend from the Country Squire. Despite the presence of the burley, with its sweet/bright Virginias and delicate Turkish and Latakia flavors, Bag End smokes like a milder, somewhat less sophisticated version of Squadron Leader.
The journey to Bag End took me there and brought me back to a state of joyful contentment without question. On June 28, 1938, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed into law the federal Fair Labor Standards Act,
establishing a minimum wage of twenty-five cents an hour. This law threatened to disrupt the livelihood of
home workers, whose activities were largely unregulated. With the rate of pay
at around fifty cents for a thousand bags, it would be nearly impossible for tobacco bag stringers to earn
enough to satisfy the requirements of the new law. Most earned on average between five and thirteen
cents an hour. If you battle low humidity because of a leaky humidor, dry climate or high altitude, choose 75% RH.
Tobacco bag stringers would thread the string
into both sides, enabling the smoker to pull on the ends to close the bags. Experienced stringers were remarkably
efficient. Remembered working only in her spare time and still stringing as
many as a thousand bags a day, for which she earned about fifty cents. For plastic travel humidors, cigar cases, tupperdors or Small Boveda Humidor Bags that hold up to 5 cigars. But are roll-your-own (RYO) and pipe tobacco products — and their customers — interchangeable?
Long forgotten today, tobacco bag stringing was a common activity in many
communities. Please leave now if you are under the age of 18 years old. Please note we do NOT ship tobacco products to the USA or the European Pipe Tobacco in Cans Union. This case was prosecuted as part of the joint federal, state, and local Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN) Program, the centerpiece of the Department of Justice’s violent crime reduction efforts.
If you live on the edge of the Mojave Desert, you will likely have a problem unless your storage area is humidity-controlled. One thing to keep in mind is that the rubber gaskets used with [wire cage] jars will deteriorate. If opened Pipe Tobacco in Cans after about five years, the re-seal may not be reliable. The current rubber gasket material used for Mason jars seems to be a very durable rubber compound. I have some that are about 20 years of age and they’re still functional.
The smoky, woody, earthy, musty sweet Cyprian latakia is a background player. The strength and nic-hit are just past the center of mild to medium. The taste falls a hair short of the medium mark. Won’t bite or get harsh, but does have a small rough edge here and there. It burns cool and clean at a reasonable pace with a complex and nuanced mildly sweet and sour, savory, and at times, inconsistent taste from top to bottom. Leaves little moisture in the bowl, and requires an average number of relights.
