Tobacco spends time in the back of trucks going across the midwest and mountain west during the winter and is delivered successfully to many of us. The temps can be well below zero for much of that time. I probably wouldn't do it myself with a tobacco I cared about but I don't think it would automatically ruin it.
It's true. This time of year every order shows up at the door frozen. The tins are still sealed but I do wonder whether they can ever be properly aged once they've gone down that path.

When I hear you guys up there talking about your winters, I always imagine this uninhabitable wasteland of ice and snow.
I had to turn on the air conditioner last night.

The day I left Wyoming it was -5 degrees Fahrenheit. When I landed in India last week, it was 86 degrees. Talk about the worst of both worlds.
