    Mold/rust in a tin of Chenet's Cake

    Wow. At a loss of words for that one. I think a little shocking for this one is that blend is part of their cellar series - and they actively encourage cellaring for years for an estimated peak on it.

    Opening A Tin? Show Us!

    Went through a tote filled with extra tins and smelled tobacco. Convinced I had a seal failure I checked them all and came across a SG tin - only rectangular one in there. I pried and pried and pried and it wasn’t coming off. I was still convinced - thought this could have been one with the...
