And your tin on the left was made in 11/18.
Date code A/N/K/RHow did you determine this?
Which tells you how full of BS the descriptions on tins can be.I think the original Rattray's Hal o' The Wynd was pure Virginia. In his "Disquisition for the Connoisseur," Hal o' The Wynd is under the chapter "Rattray's All-Virginian Tobaccos" with the heading:
"They have been specially prepared for those who demur to Mixtures containing seasoning or condimental leaf. Manufactured from pure Virginian leaf, without any artificial flavouring, they are Virginian Tobacco at its finest."
Dark-fired has always been the greatest. It just took some people quite some time to realize it.Probably when Kentucky became the latest, greatest, most fashionablest tobacco.
I do not have the link front of me but there are videos on YouTube that explain it.How did you determine this?
