If it sticks around for awhile I'll get a tin. I have a bunch of it cellared up.

The Sansepolcro is quite good. I would caution however, don't expect it to shine out of a freshly opened tin. When I originally popped a tin and promptly smoked a bowl, I was very disappointed. A month later, couldn't believe it was the same tobacco. Then even smoke some with a couple of years on it and exceptional blend.

Good to know. Thanks for the heads up.

I find a lot of the more complex blends are like that. Something about cracking a tin and letting it sit for a while seems to open things up.

For those not familiar with this particular blend, it seems to be Virginia based, with dark-fired Kentucky and black Cavendish. SP rates the taste at four dots and the strength at three. Apparently the Virginia benefits from some age.
