Well, I'm a local boy who buys from one local shop. So my experience
is limited.

Personally, if they won't let me sniff the tea, I'm not interested. My
nose can tell the difference between a stale tea and a fresh one of
the same time - the latter just smells better.

I'm just talking about a whiff of the aroma from the tin. But then, my
shop sells all stuff loose and bags it when you buy it.
