One of mine:

Elephant & Castle Deerstalker (mid 1980s)

Let me just start by saying “thanks” to Wayne for sending me this very generous sample. I was born in ’82, so this is close to my age and it was certainly a real treat to try it. :nod: I’m sitting on a fair amount of tobacco, and I have to say that if 1/10th of it ages like this, I’m giddy just thinking about the prospects for smoking in my retirement. The scent in the bag reminded me of spiced plum pudding, with strong notes of sweet hay. The stuff smelled heavenly! It had a gorgeous sheen comprised of glittery crystals on the flake. It was the perfect moisture consistency as soon as I dumped it out. This started with a nice honey sweetened grassiness that had slightly floral notes, like clover. At various points it became a little bolder with more of a molasses taste, and the faintest hint of white pepper. At no point was it ever sharp or “bitey”- a testament to well “matured” tobacco. The aftertaste reminded me of a fresh corn tortilla- slightly grain like and sweet like Silver Queen corn. The closest thing I can think of ever smoking to this is GH&C Dark Birdseye. Very tasty stuff! I have a couple bowls left and I’m sticking them in a jar for a special occasion. Thanks @OnePyroTec !
