I popped a 7 year old jar of 400 or SNF a few weeks ago, and I just can't get over that honey smell of the tin note. I can stop tasting the honey at about 1/4th of the way through the bowl. I can enjoy it better if I just let it dry to crunchy, so that the casing isn't so prominent. However, after it dissipates the tobacco is pretty good, about a medium in tobaccos flavor, not too bright, not too dark.
Usually after a week, I have blown through a 3.5oz jar, but it I still have more than half of this jar to go. I can smoke it in the mornings with my coffee, but once finished, I may have to let the rest of my jars ride.
This all probably says more about my taste in tobaccos than this blend. If someone doesn't mind a bit of honey flavoring, then you'll probably love it. But, the flavor doesn't dissipate with age... or at least 7 years isn't enough, anyways.
