storage tins

[lowflyingpenguin]

I have a largish cigar storage tin that is made of what looks like spun aluminum or a very light gauge steel and that has a soft plastic seal on the lid. I want to store some bulk tobacco in it as I have found that the teak-wood Danish tobacco 'jar' I have tends to dry the tobacco out. Anyone know what the possibility is that the metal tin will transfer a metallic taste to the tobacco?

All the regular tobacco tins are made of metal and don't impart any taste to the tobacco, so probably you are safe in that regard. I would worry more about the quality of the lid's plastic seal.
