Best of Samuel Gawith

Hi. Which one of SG’s are your favourite? I’ve tried so far: - Elmo’s Reserve (best one in my opinion) - Raspberry (decent) - Scotch Black (painful one - because of clods) - Firedance (too sweet, but good) From plastic boxes: - Guarana - Raspberry - Black Coffee - Peach - Gold Mull - Apricot I found those in plastic boxes much drier and, generally, worse than from tins. So, I’m gonna buy some 25g tins and I’d like to ask - which ones would you recommend me, except the one’s I’ve already tried? I see there is a big variety of them: https://www.snuffstore.co.uk/samuel-gawith-c-52\_125.html so I am not able to decide myself. I’d rather buy all of them, but I don’t have enough money. :smiley:

Elmo’s Reserve Black Coffee Those snuffs are both untouchable— wonderful… Miss my Black Coffee so much… out currently… Anyway, Elmo’s is my fav.

The Kendal Browns, Plain being my favorite.

Kendal brown original and Cob dark would be my recommendations.

I like mostly all except the fruit flavors; excluding banana and raspberry those I like Favorites Black Coffee,elmos, celtic talisman, peppermint dark,blue crest,chocolate,KB Original,richt kind, Princes Dark ,Cola

As of today I am in receipt of : Christmas 2013 Celtic Talisman Elmo’s Reserve Kendal Brown Auld Sannick Red Crest I’ve tried all and they are marvellous. I don’t have a favourite as yet. These are the first of the SG snuffs I’ve tried and wished I’d sampled them long before now.

Black Rappee and Kendal Brown, there are others, but these are my two favorites

Black Coffee, Elmo’s Reserve, Grousemoor, Kendal Browns, Scotch Black, London Brown, and Black Rappee are my favorites from Sammy G.

I’d have to agree with tboyer; of those I’ve tried Black Rappee and KB Original are my favourites. I went to the factory last year and had 5 tins of each made up for me so I’m probably a little biased. The experience of being allowed into SG’s ancient, hallowed blending room was really quite something.

By the way, the chap who did the mixing for me remarked that Black Rappee and London Brown are one and the same.

Grousemoor

Black Coffee, Red Crest and SP Scotch. But #1 would have to be Viking Dark which is supposedly made by them.

My old favorite SG was McCombie, may it Rest in Peace. Currently I’m staying with Black Coffee as #1. On the same daily SG menu for me are: Aperitif: Viking Blonde, Buck’s Fizz, CCC Entrees: London Brown, Scotch Black, Black Rappee Dessert: Firedance is #1, Celtic Talisman, Elmo’s, Cola, Toffee, Chocolate Still on my bucket list: Kendal Browns, Crests, Dr. Verey’s Not favorites; Fruits, Perfumed, Floral

@Viertel‌ You should try Black Coffee from a tin, it keeps much better.

@Chefdaniel Based on the menu, I’m coming over to your house for a meal! :smiley:

Elmo’s Reserve Celtic Talisman Black Rappee/London Brown Firedance Vanilla Scotch Black Mellowmint (Plus check out the Viking and Jaxons snuffs too)

London Brown, closely followed by the Kendal Browns I reckon

I have to say Black coffee, but it seems to have changed a little. I think i want to try Grousmore…

Elmos, Cob Dark, Celtic, Plum, Chocolate, Black Rappee. I would love to say Black Coffee but I honestly don’t think it’s as good as my usual Coffee Kick.

@R25‌ Good SG choices. Coffee Kick is good but it has a menthol.
