Hey guys.
I'm thinking that every time I buy some pipe baccy, I should buy a little more than I need and start putting some back. Now I'm new to this, but I think that my future self will thank me for it. Looking at Tobias' thread with all of his goodies makes me want to start working on a stash.

Questions.
Does your regular bulk tobaccos like Lane 1Q and McClelland Red Cake benefit from aging as much as the higher end tinned stuff?


And, how tight should I pack the jars with tobacco to age? Should I really pack it in there tightly or just fill it up to the top and leave it loose? Does it even matter one way or the other?

Thanks guys.
