I’m pretty new to the world of snuff, tried grinding some pipe tobacco a few weeks ago while waiting and just got an order of 8 different ones a few days ago.
The SP+Wintergreen one is all right, not my favourite of all the kinds I’ve got, but interesting. You can definitely tell there is a lot of stuff going on here, and I want to say that it almost reminds me of Dill Pickle chips which we have here in Canada (not sure about elsewhere) which might be an interesting flavour to explore.
Compared to the Red Bull and Ozona President, the wintergreen is a LOT milder than the menthol and eucalyptus found in the Poshl stuff, especially in the Red Bull.
Compared to the SP I have, I definitely prefer the “normal” non-wintergreen SP from J&H Wilson Ltd (SP No1). I’ll definitely try another SP, probably the WoS “Best SP” in my next order.
I’m not really sure where I would place it on a number scale… it’s not something I dislike, but among the variety of stuff that I ordered I feel like I prefer the Red Bull/President style with Eucalyptus and Menthol rather than Wintergreen. Glad I tried it since it helps me triangulate my tastes, but probably wouldn’t order it again. Thanks for reading!
I ended up spilling a fair bit of it (sadface) which is really too bad since it really grew on me over time and is slowly running out. I’d definitely give it a shot if I were you (and like SPs and/or Wintergreen) especially if it is on sale.
I love it. I’ve gotten away from menthols lately, so the minty but non mentholated snuffs are interesting. I like this one better than Toque Peppermint (which is also good). The wintergreen isn’t as strong as the peppermint, but it’s really nice and goes well with the SP base. It still comes off as an SP snuff to me.
Also WoS Best SP, Toque Original, and Toque SP Extra are my fav strait SPs so far. There are many other good SP variants as well. WoS Gold Label (one of my new favs) and Grand Cairo stand out as awesome SP variants and Toque Spanish Gem is a nice mellow moist SP type.
Explore and enjoy. I’m loving my snuff journey so far.
Best SP beats all SPs to me.
