[QUOTE="williamcharles, post: 451430, member: 1968"] I was lucky enough to get my hands on one of those old tins of PA that was found stashed in a wall. That tobacco is nearly a hundred years old (tax stamp says 1918). The new stuff tastes nothing like the old. Even the cut is different. I know the tobacco in this old tin would probably have been better a hundred years ago but it's still good and tastes a lot like what I remember from my childhood when I stole some from my grandpa's pouch. Careful re-hydrating worked wonders but it was good bone dry and straight from the tin. You can read a bit about it if you want too.
