I bought a group of old (20-30 years)tins from a seller on Fleabay. These were listed as no return and several clearly showed some rust in the accompanying picture. However, the ones I was interested in appeared to be in reasonable condition.
No such luck. Several tins had obviously been opened at some point and all were compromised to the point of rust inside the tin and powder dry tobacco.
I have had good luck in the past with rehydrating old tobaccos but I'm wondering about the advisability of trying to resurrect these old relics.
Any thoughts? What does rust add to the flavor of a blend?
