| The problem with the smokes is make sure to vaccum seal them, as dry air isnt tobacco's best friend. Cigarettes didnt work well in my humidor (too little space, plus the paper wasted away) but I had a pack sealed for a year (started the process when I arrived in Indy), gave it to a friend (new smoker) and he said it tasted really fresh.
If there is a catastrophic emergency, only critical items will most likely be transported, so booze and smokes may dry up. Not to mention, rum doesnt really go bad, and through compressed value, it will not lose value. An ear of corn is not much, but when made into alcohol form, it goes hundreds of times up in value.
Heck, even my small SHTF bag has a bottle of wine in it for "celebration".
Peterock: Generally, do you see alot of people going to cheaper alcohol in bars (like more domestics and well drinks) compared to top shelf booze? I ask as your points have me intrigued!
