The tobaccos I’ve thought turned out subjectively better after jarring and “cellaring” were not overly Latakia-Ed English and Scottish mixtures (Dunhill 965, MacBaren Scottish in particular). These, and other blends like these (uncased Va/Bur/Oriental), seem to develop a creamy quality and a smoothing of the sharper notes. I haven’t tried this with others, as I tend to use them up too quickly to test.
Anything I’ve jarred/cellared that was an aromatic SOMETIMES gets a bit mellower on the casing, but I think I attribute that more to them drying out than to the age. I don’t age aromatics, I just don’t smoke them often and usually leave the lids cracked (or off) in an attempt to make them smokable.
