So Samuel Gawith is a pretty popular brand for cellaring. Especially FVF and St James Flake. It comes in two sizes: The typical 50g tin, and a 250g box. It's a LOT cheaper by the box. It's $9.33 per 50g tin, which is $46.65 per 250g if you buy it in tins. But it's only $30.01 in the 250g boxes. The boxes are shrink wrapped, but inside the boxes the 250g is basically in a zip lock baggie.
Any concerns about cellaring it in the boxes? Tins seem ideal for long term cellaring, but it's hard to pass up that much savings. I suppose you could add the price of a 1 quart mason jar per 250g box, but I'm guessing that kills potential resale value in ten years when you can no longer prove what and how much is in the jar.
Thoughts?
