Is there a way to combat, or at least diminish, the onset of mold growth once you have opened the tin? I suppose stoving could do it, but then the blend's flavor would be changed. There are antifungal agents that are used by blenders, but I assume those are applied early in the process and not later as a topping.

Once a tin is opened, it goes straight to a clean mason jar and I've got jars with many years on them and no mold.

If you're looking for short term storage and still want more immediate access than a mason jar provides, I'd suggest trying flip top jars for less than two years. Every now and then I get one that goes crispy dry on me towards the bottom due to a bad seal, which doesn't necessarily bother me, but I can report sufficient results I have no intent of discontinuing the practice. It's served me well.

Les ... are you looking for a specific ingredient that may be used safely on tobacco to prevent mold? In most of my "sauces" I include a little Apple Cider Vinegar which acts as an anti-fungal without effecting the taste. Many people that make cheese at home use white vinegar to spray down the work surfaces and their hands before starting for the same reason. Hopefully, some of this info is useful!
