There is a chance - a very slight chance, but a chance nonetheless - that the bag could have developed a pinhole. Normally over four years that would mean crispy dry tobacco, but if it's been sitting in your cigar humi you would have the opposite problem.

Dang guess I need to tear open the bag.
Oh, darn the bad luck!
Lol!
Here's what 4 year old Stonehaven looks like from a bag with pinholes stored in a humi:
Except for some dry spots seems ok. Some sugar crystals as well. Guess I am gonna smoke it!
I'd take it out of the bag, and jar it up. One of the dont's in pipe tobacco is don't ever put it in your cigar humidor unlike cigars it can absorb the cedar and other cigars. I'd suspect your Stonehaven is fine, I'd still slice it open and jar it up if it were mine that eliminates all concern and you get to watch the aging process.
Oh yeah, that's the heavenly Stonehaven right there!
Yup! Shopping for a big mason jar tomorrow,
Hobby lobby or Michaels type stores sell them individually for a real decent price. About once a month they put them half off too.
A quart mason jar holds 8oz of Stonehaven nicely without having to bend, fold or cut the beautiful slices.

It looks terrible. You should send it to me for safety testing. If it's alright I'll send the remainder back to you for your enjoyment. Shouldn't take more than 7 1/2 ounces to ensure accurate testing.
