I only discovered Christmas Cheer a few years ago. I managed to get 2 tins of the 2016, but was out of luck on the 2017. I have 1 of 2013, and 2 each of 2014 and 2015. I don't plan to go chasing after more.
My current plan - subject to change - is to start in 2019 with a tin of 2014. I'll then open a tin a year. I may decide to jar half the opened tin and set it aside for a bit more. I know the aging process will have been interrupted, but I'll get by.
No, I am definitely a curmudgeon--- but only about the things that need be, and angry about the things worth being angry over, like these FDA Deeming laws!
Regulations, not laws, to be accurate.

I'm not happy about this situation, and I'm doing my best to alleviate the situation for myself. But angry? Nope. There's real injustice in this world to get angry about. I'm pretty darned fortunate that I can afford to be in this situation in the first place. Using tobacco is a privilege, not a right. :
