(Ended) The Original "ORIENTAL" by Robert McConnell. A Fine Balkan Blend (pre-2002)

50g/1.75oz., of Robert McConnell's Original "ORIENTAL" Pipe Tobacco, which dates to 2002 at the James. B. Russel era's "Upper Saddle River" address, before they dissolved their business. This tin is the smaller 3.5" diameter tins which were discontinued in the late 1970's. The label is the earlier reflective gold and weighs as much as a comparable 4" tin of the same product. Acquired by Arango Cigar Co. in 2009. This tin may be conservatively, +25 years-old. Part of the McConnell range from the early 1800's. One of their oldest blends "consists of mostly Cypriot, Turkish and Eastern Mediterranean Bright tobacco blended with Bright Leaf from Carolina and Red, Old Belt Virginias" with a touch of Carolina Black Cavendish. Highly rated reviews by readers of Pipe Tobacco Reviews. Unsure of it's provenance, I've priced it accordingly. Sealed, and kept in cool, dark, dry storage.
