I’m enjoying this tin I got. I was hoping some of you older seasoned smokers could tell me how old it might be. Also, it says straight Virginia on TR but it’s got some spice to it. Is it really just VA?

not sure but the description on the tin is just what they want you to think when you buy it. Often there are but not always other tobaccos which may change from batch to batch for semi ironically to maintain consistency. Think of it this way they're promising you that it has a lot of VA in it.
Lol. Send me good KY bourbon and maybe we got a deal. You a bluegrass fan btw or just from the area? Been listening to a lot the last few years.
That’s an interesting point. They do the same in wine. They should adopt the same regulations though. For a wine if it has 75% or more of a single varietal you don’t need to list the other 25%. And similarly they often adjust the ratio of “support” grapes in the name of consistency.
Scottie Piersel told me she'd make me any pipe I wanted for a bottle of Pappy. That was maybe 4 years ago.
A shame about the bourbon industry really - it doesn't seem that long ago I could walk in to nearly any liquor store and grab a bottle of most any well regarded bourbon for under $80.
I live in Louisville.
Not a huge fan of bluegrass music but I don't hate it. I'm a drummer by trade so not much for me in a strings dominated genre.
I've done a little jugband work though lol.
I can give you a year for the tin, but it could be 5 years out either way (but no more).
I can also tell you what was in the Cut Bar.... Exactly.
All I ask in return is before I disclose the information is that you shave off that French looking moustache & beard.
Unless of course you are actually French, in which case I apologise monsieur.

As my friend Larry says, "That sounds French. You should fix that."
Not sure about you, but your friend Larry sounds like a stand up kinda guy.
Lol. Not French, Lebanese which was ruled by France for a bit so does that count. Here’s a recent photo.
