Thinking of trying Araku "Selection"—how does it compare to Blue Tokai?

Thinking of trying Araku "Selection"—how does it compare to Blue Tokai?

Hey guys,

​I’m considering picking up Araku Selection, but I’d love some humble perspective before I pull the trigger:

Compared to Blue Tokai: I’ve explored various BT roasts using a French Press. For those who've switched or tried both, how does Araku’s "Selection" (Medium-Dark) stack up in terms of flavor and quality? Is the ~₹655 price point justified?

The "Tin" Dilemma: As someone who appreciates good design but values freshness, is the tin actually functional for long-term storage, or should I just get the pouch and stick to my own airtight containers?

First-timer Advice: Is this specific roast a good "intro" to the brand for a French Press user, or should I look at their other offerings first?

​Would appreciate your honest thoughts. Thanks!
