I have a 4oz cake, i plan to store half long term and keep the rest out for smoking, should i rub it out in to ribbon or store it as a cake? Im using mason jars for storage.

    I will let the experts answer this as I’m interested too. Anything I open from original packaging, immediately, goes into sealed jars.

    Regarding a cigar, the pipe and the open road, go forward without hurry, learn the essence of things through frequent experiences, taking advantage of every occasion.

    Well, I'm no expert, but if I know I'm going to be smoking a caked blend fairly regularly and soon, I rub it out. If I expect to put it away I leave it as cake. This seems to keep it fresher longer, IMHO.

    On a related note, anything that comes in the old style tins, IOW not airtight, goes immediately into a Mason Jar. If the tin has the plastic lid, I leave it in that.

    It will store fine either way. Leaving it as a cake for long term storage may help the flavors meld together better.

    If it don’t bother me, it don’t bother me. Just leave me alone.

    It certainly looks edible, been tempted to treat it like a plug of chewing tobacco lol
