Thanks Walt. A work in progress. My open jars are in the cabinet shelves below. I would like to find a unit with drawers instead of shelves so I can see and get to my open jars more easily.

There are 10 or so tins of Balkan Blue, 10 Anniversary Flake plus Christmas Cheer behind the front row. Moving left is G.L. Pease, Rattrays, SPC, C&D with other various tins. Second shelf has a wide variety but lots of Esoterica, a bunch of escudo, Sam Gawith, etc. I am getting there but still far from my goal.

I purchased a 5 draw dresser just for that purpose alone. With the labels on top my open stash is super easy to locate and extremely convenient. I purchased my dresser from Wayfair online for $109.00 delivered to my room. Very satisfied ππ

I bought 2 large bookcases with open shelves...holds my 86 jars of current rotation...lower shelves hold ceramic jars (bail tops) with bulk. Works well and cost me $20.00 per bookcase from Habitat for Humanity outlets...or thrift stores.

Hard to see what is what with the way that I have them now.

Nice work mwps70. That's a good setup and I'd be proud of that... Expecially your collection of mcclelland tobacco. You have a nice cellar in your cellar.

I've gotten pretty lucky with esoterica as well. 3 lbs of Stonehaven, just under 2 lbs of Penzance, 1 lb of Margate and a couple bags and tins of a few others that I haven't tried yet. Funny, not long ago the bags were a cream color and very easy to be had from P&C. I didn't realize until too late how hard they had become to be acquired. Luckily I have a very small B&M nearby. They carry mostly cigars but there is almost always a bag or tin of either Penzance or Stonehaven there when I get the chance to stop by.

I inherited a buffet stand piece of antique furniture from my granddad when he passed. It houses much of the cellar like it was made for it.

That's the best, when you can take some thing that is personal like that and use of for a beloved hobby such as pipe smoking. Post a pic if you get a chance.

Very Nice! Hold your head up high. Aww man I thought I got everyone. Sorry about that and now I am hanging my head low lol. Kidding. I do appreciate the kind words. I put in another order from SP today to add to the cellar. I've been wanting to get stokebyes flakes in the cellar to age so I ordered 8 Oz of each plus 3 tins each of the new Sutliff crumble kakes.

So I decided to shop for a new hutch for my cellar and pipes. I need drawers for open jars. I found this one near me on swap. I don't have dimensions yet and am going to check it out tomorrow but what are yall's thoughts? $100.00 is the asking price.

Excellent deal Nathan. This is what I was looking for when I ran across my setup. I bet I can get it for 75 bucks. I just need to get some measurements to make sure it will work.

In consignment shops, there are a lot of cabinets and hutches that are ideal to repurpose for tobacco storage, at one store my wife sells stuff, the product gets discounted weekly, if it doesnβt sell right away. The furniture is in generally much better condition, and better quality than you typically see in thrift stores... to the point of looking brand new.
I too inherited my wifeβs grandmaβs buffet that has all my rotation stock... a really nice piece.
