Has anyone tried this Virgina Flake?

I just found a tin of this 2004 Astleys No.109 in my collection that I completely forgot about and she smokes like a dream, has anyone tried this Virgina?

109 is very similar to Rattrays Marlin Flake, but it has been years since I've smoked either. My memory tells me that both are good to very good.

One of me faves and well represented in the cellar. A tin from 2004 ought to be terrific by now. Enjoy!! 8)

Thanks guys...and just to think I almost through it out because I thought it might have been no good...man that would have not been a good idea.

I have a tin from last year's Secret Santa... maybe it's a sign to crack that bad boy open!

Isn't that one of Puff Daddy's favorites? I do not think I have any cellared. Must be an oversight on my part.

That is one fantastic tobacco you've got there. 8)

MisterE turned me on to that one! Really good stuff!

That's one of my favorites. Seems like anybody that's been sittin' on an aged tin since last Christmas better get to it!

Tomorrow or the next day , I should have a tin.
I researched Virginias last week, and wrote down all of your favorites, and no. 109 was one that was repeated more so than others.
Along with Union Square,,,,, so I just had to order 1 of each !

Soon, I will be able to offer my newbie opinions, on tobacco's.

Astley's 109 is fabulous & is well represented in my humble cellar.
