As most know by now, McClelland changed the name of Blue Mountain to Balkan Blue. Well a few days back I was browsing Ebay and noticed a "Collectors Item" tin of McClelland Blue Mountain at $20.00. Granted it was an older tin as well, dated 2011. Now I love Blue Mountain/Balkan Blue and I have a few tins left of the original name. Of course I bought them to smoke, not to collect and sell later. But I can't help but wonder if these tins might increase in demand... at least for those who love Blue Mountain as much as I do. My tins don't have much age to them, dated 2013, so holding onto them and just purchasing the newly labeled Balkan Blue is no problem at all. There shouldn't be too much of a difference in the tobacco. So what should I do? What would you do? Hold on to them to possibly sell later? Or crack those babies open and smoke that stuff?
