[QUOTE="huffelpuff, post: 526983, member: 2140"] Has the remaining tobacco reached the point where it is particularly dry? If so some rehydration might coax a smidgen more flavor out of the tobacco. Unfortunately with RY a significant part of the flavor is a top dressing and if it gets too dry you may lose a lot of the flavor. You might try storing this in a fresh jar of RY to allow it to pick up flavor and scent from the fresher tobacco. Just place a paper disk on top of the new stuff in the bottom of the jar with a number of pin holes in the paper of course and give it Perhaps a month or so to pick up flavor. You could also try placing the paper packaging from a new tin in with the remains of the very aged RY and hope it picks up enough flavor that way. Hope these help in some way. I hate to hear of RY ending its days by going in the dustbin. Jim Oh and I have salvaged really old tobaccos before including a tin of 97 year old half and half that was bone dry for probably 20 years before I got it. It smoked beautifully after rehydration with minimal loss of flavor. [/QUOTE]
