    Default Esoterica Tobacciana ( Font?)

    I am in the process of cellaring a few pounds of Stonehaven and Penzance,with the help of my PC I print labels to use with my jars , I was wondering if any of you know the font type used by Esoterica.

    Thank you, all help will be appreciated.

    That's nice! Is that an empty Escudo or similar tin, or something you bought empty? I am searching for a portable solution to carrying around several go to tobaccos in the car. So far I am using tupperware but would love some other ideas.

    Try bell jars. Put the tobacco in a zip lock bag and then inside a bell/mason jar and aside from extreme heat you'll be set for a good amount of time.

    I have a couple of dozen of them at home, but never thought of ziplocking the different tobys and storing them all in the same jar. I would need one for Lats and one for Va's I think.

    You may also add a humidi pack from a cigar shop for longer term storage

    I've heard of tobacco going decades inside mason/bell jars with no detrimental loss of moisture. I'm new to all this, but from what I can tell from the 7 or so tins and many bulk tobaccos I've tried, they can all stand to lose quite a bit of moisture before they're within optimal smoking range. Unless a blend was on the dry side to begin with, I personally wouldn't bother with a humidi pack, especially the kind that uses propylene glycol. However, I certainly do understand tobacco moisture is as subjective as what constitutes a good blend.

    Interesting... when I want to dry out some baccy quickly, I just put it in my car. Yeah, they're very good dehydrators.
