[QUOTE="derlict311, post: 265099, member: 1744"] I'm curious to read your thoughts after smoking this, too. A tin like that has got to be worth $200-300 or more to the right person so you are the envy of many a pipe smoker tonight. Thanks for sharing and please let us know your impressions when you do smoke it. I had a much less old pouch of Balkan Sobraine (1990's) that I rehydrated and was expecting to knock my socks off but found it mostly underwhelming. I rehydrated it for weeks before I smoked it but I don't think it reached the full zenith of flavors it once had. Additionally, the pouch didn't lend anything to the aging process, as I understand it. Your tin sounds like it took care of the tobacco well so I hope your experience far exceeds mine! If you don't mind sending me a bowl, I could verify it's authenticity. No sense in Bogarting the goods, sir. :P [/QUOTE]
