I few days ago I snagged four unopened tins of Prince Albert. I was just looking for the tins themselves for everyday baccy transport, but having them filled was a bonus. The fact they have barcodes puts them around the 70's or 80's. I've opened one, and although the tobacco is predictably dry and crackly near the top, the inside seems to still be about as moist as a fresh tin of GL Pease. There are some oxidation spots in the wrapper, but a bit of rust isn't a big deal.
Should I rehydrate and smoke? Or store as a momento of time gone by?
