How Much Tobacco Do You Keep On Hand?


Recommended Posts

I like to keep at least a couple of kg's on hand, that way I get a variety. Although, a lot of my collection is made up of some flavours I don't extremely enjoy. I like to have at least 500g of my favorites on hand.

How about you guys?

Probably close to 5-6 kilos. Pretty much every brand--Tangiers, Nakhla, AF, Desi, Cleo, SB, Fantasia, Romman, and maybe another brand I don't remember.

I've got a lot of variety. hehe

I usualy order 5 or 6 killos at once then reorder when I drop below 2


i wish i could do that. i still dont got the balls to order that much tobacco and have it shipped over the border.
my last order (should be shipped from hj today or tomorrow) is 2.5kg and im already shitting my pants.

lol damn dude...im already shitting my pants and I only ordered about 1.2 kilo's plus a bambino ohmy.gif

...oh and yeah, I don't keep much on hand...at least not for now..since I'm not a heavvvvy hookah smoker, but once my order from John gets here and I decide which flavors I prefer, I'll be ordering more provided customs doesn't fcuk things up for me.

the only americans that have any clue about the metric system are shisha smokers.

well, everything on the planet uses grams and kilos (cars, cooking ingredients, tobacco, etc)... every country uses the metric system.
its only the usa that is delayed in switching over to a much simpler system.

I normally don't worry much since I have several local shops that sell at not bad prices. However, this is the first time I have bought online, and bought more than 50g boxes... it might become a habit. But I don't smoke that much so what I have now (about a kilo) will last quite a while.

My peak amount was about 2kg of tobacco. Right now I have possibly about 750g but i normally keep about 500g - 750g of tobacco on hand...and I dont buy anything until I start getting bored or I run dangerously close to having no tobacco at all.

I remember back when I was in elementary school they tried to only teach metric instead of American standard but not one person I know even understands it today besides hookah smokers. god that was 20 some odd years ago.

i feel old now.


I bet more ppl I know knows what a hogshead is than knows what a megagram is

1 hogshead = 238.480942 liters Edited by Charley

why would you guys be worried about large orders?


they have insane tobacco taxes if customs finds there orders en route they get taxed if memory serves me right its about $15 for 50g but I may be wrong on that one.

I usually order a few kilos a month. Right now I would guess (by picturing it in my head) 12-14 Kilos on hand at the moment. I figure all that will change when my baby is born.
