Especially at the (nearly 50 dollar/lb) price point. I wondered if they only sauced the bulks with humectant. Not that I can afford to stock up on their tins either, being even more expensive than the bulks (plus I already have an unfortunate penchant for absolutely loving G&H blends already).

I try to stick with Stokkebye and C&D bulk, and hunting for mason jars at thrift shops, to keep things *somewhat* fiscally responsible
I've only recently bought some McClelland bulks at my local B&M and I did notice that is more moist than the tinned tobaccos. Didn't really give it much thought but it is probably due to a humectant. Have you tried C&D Yorktown? It is supposed to be a good Virginia. Big Lots has Mason jars that are only $8 a case. They only have the half-pints and quarts and the quarts are not wide-mouth.
