[QUOTE="DrumsAndBeer, post: 431411, member: 2403"] My theory around this has always been to buy tobaccos with quality leaf around the Latakia and you're likely to be more satisfied with older tins. As the Lat mellows the high grade VA's and Orientals should be getting better. GLP blends tend to age really nice. I had a 13 year old tin of Odyssey and it was ridiculously good. However, the latakia was very subdued. On the other hand the Virginia's were quite a bit sweeter, noticeably so actually. I guess it all depends on personal preference. Do you like mellow lat with a subtle hint of smoke, or that fresh piney pungency... [/QUOTE]
