I am often asked this question. A fine is an archaic term for losses of tobacco due mishandling and neglect. Mold is a fine... Breakage is a fine... A few years ago I decided to resurrect the term and include it in my writing here.
I decided to borrow this picture from another thread. I thought that it might be interesting to hear what the membership thought went wrong here.
I can quickly think of maybe 5 or 6 reasons.
What do you think it was? If you want to include it, please say who you believe is at fault, if anyone.
