About this FAQ

This FAQ is a compendium of knowledge and advice for the pipe-smoking enthusiast interested in the aging, storage and cellaring of pipe tobacco. The primary source of the excerpts used in this document is the public archive of the USENET newsgroup alt.smokers.pipes. I have attempted to quote each writer's words precisely and their meaning faithfully. I have taken the editorial liberty of making slight changes for purposes of readability and conciseness. Each author retains ownership over their original words.

Many of these questions do not have a single correct answer. In cases where there is a difference of opinion, I have tried to present each view evenly. It is up to the reader to choose which approach suits their aging objectives.

I welcome comments and suggestions.

Cheers,
Jason Newquist
