There is a can that has been aging at my local B&M for the year now. Is it worth getting. What are your thoughts on it.

If you like Virginias, buy it!
If you don't, buy it anyway and age it 'til you do. Laughing

Yeah , buy it, but don't open it. I always buy 2 because I know I will pop one immediately and cellar the rest.

I still am smoking the 2001. AFter this I will open the oldest one I have cellared, which I think is the 06. I won't open the 08 for at least 2 years.

I popped a tin of CC'03 the other day; couldn't wait.
Mmm, mmm, mmm.

I opened the 2008 and thought it was so great that I bought two more.

I bought 5 tins last year but probably won't crack one for at least 5-7 years. I don't think you can go wrong with Christmas, worst case it's an investment that will increase in value with age.
