  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over time BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

I have an unopened 2oz can of G.L. Pease Haddo's Delight dated 11-7-2000. Do you all think it's still good? Do I need to rehydrate it after opening?

Wouldn't you like to know?
Should be great as long storage conditions were good. Humidity should also still be perfect as pease seals the tins well. Hopefully it will have aged well and could be a spectacular tin

HOLY SHIT welcome back, gibblesnitch! o)

as the guys have said, tins are made for aging, and VA and VaPer blends both shine with age. if there is no deformation of the tin, the seal is intack, and it shows no rust or anything stupid, you got a real treat on your hands. OR. save it for another couple few years if you'd like.

dude, pimpin' ain't easy. o)


BUT trying to share and hook people up, deliver to the deserving, and expand someone's horizons, IS what it's about. let us know what he thinks! even better, can you find a newer tin to get a comparrison?
