Happy Holidays All,
I was recently gifted several tins of McClelland Christmas Cheer. They vary by year, mostly between the mid 2000's to 2017. The one exception is a tin from 1992. I'm curious as to how long can you age those Virginias before they stop aging or begin degrading. Other than being able to say I have an unopened tin of 1992 Christmas Cheer, is there any benefit to allowing a 26 year old tin to remain unopened and unsmoked? I'm not a collector by no means. I cellar for future use.
