The secret to a good day’s pipe smoke is good planning. If you have pipe tobacco that still has a bit of springiness to it, the moisture content might be a little high to make your experience what it should be. One age-old solution is to air dry it overnight, allowing some of that moisture to escape, in thin air. Very magical. Using a cork lined, solid brass keep like this one allows you to use this same method, in a very eye pleasing way. Since the cork will keep in some, but not all of the moisture, the non air tight fitting allows some of the moisture to escape. Experiment with the timeframes based on your moisture content to find your perfect sweet spot.
