Opening A Tin? Show Us!

Is that as good as I’m hoping it is? I have two very well aged ones that I bought off a seller on this forum but I haven’t opened them yet. I love Dan tobacco, so I try to give it as much time as I can.

It’s very good! The prominent flavor I got was… wood? Not Latakia campfire wood, but more like… fresh cut lumber? There is a nice sweetness and just the faintest hint of pepper (Perique?). I’m not a big fan of Perique, but this is so faint it truly enhances the flavor without taking center stage. It’s a keeper.

I hate that H&H doesn’t date tins. This is either 2022 or 2023. First Snow, opened just a few days after our first snow here in upstate SC.

I’m smoking through a tin of this from 2020. Enjoying it.

How is the Dan London blend 1000? I’ve considered buying some to age in the past. Also, how is the And So to Bed aged?

The last tins of the 1000 blend I had were from, I believe the late 90's which were good. I have to imagine by the smell, the tin I just opened will be as good. I haven't pulled from the tin to smoke for myself yet. Probably tomorrow morning I'll be getting to it. As for the And So To Be, I would be shocked it if was anything but good. I'll be pulling from that tin this week as well.

Shoot me a PM with your mailer and I'll get you a few bowls to see for yourself. ;-)
