@ Pieter Well, let me know how it goes. I think Copenhagen is a brand you would enjoy for sure, judging by what your tastes are like. Next time I will shout instead of whisper!LOL!
Now we just have to wait until Copenhagen’s Pineapple twist comes out: Wikipedia says it’s expected in late November. Seems like a strange time to launch a tropical blend. I would think that would be more of a summer flavor:Wiki article
Errr… Pineapple Twist? LOL, they sure did go to the extreme didn’t they? I used to associate Copenhagen with something strong and solid. Now I will have to associate it with… Pina Colada’s?
Okay, my curiosity is officially piqued. I love Wintergreen flavour but so far I have only experienced it in Snus. I am tempted to try it as dip now. How is it used?
pineapple is a great dip flavor
I have been seeing the advertisements that it was coming soon for a few weeks now. I just saw the dip for the first time tonight. I almost bought a can, but decided against it. My gums have never been happier since I switched from dip to loose-leaf. I still might end up buying a can just to see how it is.
i think cope is trying to capitalize on skoals market,i always say dont fruit the dip…unless it tastes like raisons in my beech-nut .
@M.Moses Don’t feel so bad-my knowledge of snus is only in trying Camel once and I didn’t really care for it. Whenever I read about snus, I see they say to place the snus in the UPPER lip? What is the advantage to this, I wonder, unless the lower get wore down and sore? I believe I will try some of the snus I’ve heard of here on this sight, though. I always just pictured snus like a Skoal pouch for example, but I see the difference seems to lie in the processing of the tobacco in each product. Also, on the part about being discreet and not having to spit-this would come in handy from time to time–but-there comes a time in this PC world we live in with the anti-tobacco freaks, a fellow gets a good feeling when he walks around with a huge wad of chew in his/her mouth, occasionally throwing off a line of rich, deep tobacco juice, and is able to look others in the eye and not be ashamed to use tobacco. I call it my “Expectoration Proclamation”. I have a dream that one day every car will have ‘hill-billy racingstripes’, a cuspidor will be returned to it’s prominant place in every home…well it’s late…I don’t really know where this post is going, so I’ll get off here. But, yes, you should try some of the American dip and loose leaf if you are interested.
cause a country boy can survive!
‘spit Beechnut in that dudes eye’ You got it , Nosechaw!
lol -i make my own whiskey and my own smoke 2 aint 2 many things this dam jew cant do
HAHAlol Nice remake! I will say, I would not spit near that nice black Impala of yours! We had a '68 growing up. Off the topic, but I never told you that looked like a fine car in your picture!
thanks on the compliment i put my heart and soul in that thing .id rather drive an old chevy for the rest of my life than a new hybrid weed wacker golf cart turbo diesels any day .had a brand new audi a4 in 2002 ,blew the clutch at 22k and the engine spun all the bearings and locked up at 33k,than i leased a gto 2006 ,now back to the impalas,my third one and last one ill ever sell .even if i gotta put a solar panel on my hood and a windmill on my trunk for government emmission ill do it .ill even grow my own corn and run it off moonshine if i have to !
I gave the WG a 3.5 out of 5 on smpost. It’s quite good and probably the only wintergreen I’d buy with any regularity, other than the one off can of Skoal FC once in awhile. Cope Black was replaced by Whiskey Blend. Not minding the changeover, to be honest, but why do they insist upon keeping Cope Straight in their range? It has to be the most nauseating crap on the market.
Snus comes in pouches but also in loose form. The reason, I think, for the upper lip, is reduction for the “need” to spit. With snus, you don’t spit, or don’t have to. I find a snus in the top lip to be comfortable, not obvious to outsiders, if that matters, of course I have a dirty wizard going on. The loose is molded, it has a clay-like consistency, and stuck in the upper lip.
thanks Tom502! btw, what’s a dirty wizard?
It’s a reference to Bin Laden, to my beard, from the movie Bruno: http://www.jihadwatch.org/2009/07/dirty-wizard-or-homeless-santa.html
LOL I see now, Dirty Wizard! @ Mr Snuffypants I feel the same way about the straight. Shouldn’t staight be straight, plain tobacco flavor? Seems as though Skoal uses the same flavoring for their Straight. If you’ve ever smelt the dipstick on a motor thats rings are wearing out, that’s what I compare it to–a heavy, un-natural toxic smell. (I wouldn’t recommend going around smelling dipsticks, but you get my point!)
I haven’t had proper dip in many years, but I remember the flavor of Skoal Straight. One of the Bernard snuffs reminded me of it a lot. I think it was the Kostlich. I’m sure Skoal adds some sweeteners but I think the flavor is likely the result of fermentation.
i just found out my buddys mom has 14 cans of that stuff she got from somewhere they were giving them away for free.im gonna jump on his offer .when i get them ill let u guys know and if someone is interested we can trade for something.i wouldnt be able to use half that stuff and i wouldnt want it to go bad sitting around .
