McClelland Organically Grown Virginia Flake 50g sealed tin 2002
5 day auction
22 year old sealed tin.
Get ready to embark on a journey with a true rarity - a sealed tin from 2002 of one of the most elusive McClelland blends!
What makes this tobacco stand out? Well, it wasn't on the market for long, making it a prized find for enthusiasts and collectors. This sealed tin holds a piece of tobacco history, and you're in for a treat.
Now, let's talk about the little hiccup McClelland had with this blend. It wasn't about being forced to stop production; they chose to.
Picture this: Mike, the mastermind behind it all, had procured this fantastic organically grown Virginia leaf with plans to market it as "organic tobacco," which it truly is. The snag came when the processing machinery used was the same for both organic and non-organic tobacco – a big no-no in the world of organic products. So, rather than deal with the nit-picking bureaucracy, Mike decided to halt production. Now that's dedication to quality!
But here's the real kicker - this is one of those tobaccos that ages like fine wine, improving in flavor and natural sweetness as it ages. It's a phenomenon that adds a layer of depth to the smoking experience, and trust me, the sweetness at the end rivals Christmas Cheer!
Now, let's talk about the smoking experience. A nice, clean, refreshing Virginia awaits you. Just a hint of the famous McClelland smell when you crack open the tin. The smoke itself is simple yet wonderfully enjoyable, with a natural sweetness that keeps you coming back for more.
Consider yourself lucky if you win the auction.
This is not just a tobacco; it's a piece of McClelland's legacy. A blend so delightful, you'll be yearning for more.
