    My main concern in getting jars as a number of people have said that tobaccos kept in separate bags, but the same tupperdor, will mingle characteristics due to the large amount of smell through the baggies, which I can definitely see, as every bag is strong, wonderfully pungent.

    Just don't want to mess up my tobaccos over $30 worth of jars to contain the smells, and sometimes ziploc bags rip while opening, so jars eliminate that too

    I friggin love cigars

    JMHO,
    I have always used jars when I open a tin, mainly to stop the tobacco from drying out, if I have several blends open. Ghosting, I have only found when smoking say a heavy Latakia, then a Virginia a few days later in the same pipe. So half my pipes are for any blend with Latakia, and the rest for most others. The only exception to that is my cobs and Meerschaum. The Meerschaum has never ghosted, and I’m not too concerned with a cob, that has a little extra flavor to it. My more expensive briar pipes, those I keep separated. I suppose you could get cross “contamination” from the aromas, but I honestly don’t know if it would impact the actual taste of the tobacco.

    Hopefully someone else will chime in on that topic, since I’ve never experienced it.

    I just went with jars from the start to save myself any hassle.
