How to determine the age of this tin of Drew Estate, Gatsby Luxury Flake?

[olofsson]

I'm considering selling it and would therefore like to know the age. A quick Google search suggests that Drew Estate pipe tobacco was produced by STG from 2013 to 2017 or so which narrows it down. But there's not much information on the tin except for a bar code. I can't remember when I bought it.

This blend was originally named Gilded Age Reserve, so odds are it's within the 2014-2016 window. Wish I could help beyond this, but all I can do is stare enviously, as it is arguably my favorite blend. I'm sure one of the other members will be able to chime in with something more specific...they usually do!

Ok, thanks. I guess I can just say it's from 2016. Pretty sure I bought it around 2016-2017 from P&C (who delete order information after two years).

I think the Drew Estate mixtures were existing STG blends rebranded for them.

Do you know if the STG blends still exist and what the corresponding blends were to the Drew Estate ones? I’m sure @Servant King (among others) would be thrilled to be able to get the equivalent of Gatsby Luxury Flake if so.

Probably just rebranded 507-C...
