As Pieter Claassen already mentioned we have revived another historical snuff called “Musinotabak”. According to the receiepe from 1830 this fermented Virginia tobacco is mixed with Cinnamon, Galgantroot, Angelicaroot, Orangepeels and Fernambukwood. Flavoured with Elderberry blossomwater. Although Holland was second in the world championship football we still launch this snuff, also because we renewed the website www.snuifmolens.nl If you want to try this snuff mail your post address to us before august the 13th through the website. Jaap Bes.
Thank you, Jaap!
Yes, thanks very much, Jaap.
I read up on some of the things that were unfamiliar to me: Galgant seems to be German for Galangal aka Blue Ginger. That’s fantastic, as I’ve been hoping for a ginger scented snuff.Angelica root is used to flavor some gin and Chartreuse, and is used in Lapland as a medicinal herb. Varieties of the plant seem to be used by a plethora of native northern cultures for various reasons. This one should make ap happy: Fernambuk is German for Pernambuco, the Brazillian State, or more precisely the tree which is more commonly reffered to in English as BrazilwoodI’m pretty sure I’ve smelled that before, it should be nice in a snuff. I’m really looking forward to this one.
Very interested as well in a ginger snuff. I am planing an order with De Kralingse Molens but want to know when the new snuff will be available as I might purchase one of each sort to try out. I must recognize I’ve never snuffed any kind of Molen’s
Its available now.
Just placed an order by email, I hope this arrives quick !!
Just put in a request for a sample But please… please… please… don’t let this one be as good as the others (Bon Bon, Macuba, Prins, Ao, or AP)!!! I can’t afford any more love at first sniff.
Snifs, I can assure you, if not better then at least the same. I polished a 10g tin in just more than 2 days, taking HUGE pinches everytime I opened the tin. Musinotabak and Bolongaro are my 2 favourite Jaap snuffs at present.
Thanks Jaap!
I cannot seem to access the site, can anyone provide the contact info?
info@snuifmolens.nl
Thank you very much Xander.
no problem
can’t wait to try all of the De kralingse as all of their snuffs I’ve tried are top notch. If they had slightly more of a selection I’am sure they’d be in my top three instead of almost.
Thank you Jaap, received my sample in the mail about 10 mins ago.
Most supurb new DE Kralingse sample. Got today! Mmm good.
I received my sample today too, great stuff Thanks Jaap
I got my sample in last week and while it’s very nice I do prefer the BonBon. It’s kind of hard to go wrong with such an excellent tobacco base though.
Last week? WTF is mine? Why am I alwyays last (Hollandse Bolongaro excepted) to get the new Kralingse samples?
Got my sample of Musinotabak. Unlike any other snuff I have tried and that numbers several hundred. I can see this becoming a favorite. I will go through the sample today. Hope Dave gets it in soon. I want to support him because he moved to the UK and is trying to make sure the Yanks can get snuff.
I haven’t received anything yet either. I wanted to order a bunch from them, and they haven’t replied to my email. oh well.
@Xander, Haven’t recieved anything either.
I made a request for a sample as well, although I don’t expect to get anything…
If you sent a complete address, including country, Jaap will send you a sample.
What a surprise I got when I received my sample from Jaap. Very, very good snuff! I loved the post card that was included. Thank you Jaap!
Very nice but sticky needs to be rounded into full batch better. Mulled with fingers of free sample and will try Wed. with coffee time. Very nice in stock form aswell. A/P still is my fave. Times will change?
Words can not express how much I’ve enjoyed Musinotabak. It burns oh so good and the aroma is incredible! Nicotine is above average and goes great w/coffee. This inspires me to try other De Kralingse products. I been reading about the A/P and looking to order it, I can’t find an online shop that carries it…
http://www.snuff.me.uk/proddetail.asp?prod=NAPhttp://www.snuffstore.de/onlineshop/product_info.php/info/p1185_Zweimuehlen-Snuff—A-P–25-g.html I suspect other vendors are temporarily sold out. You can also order directly from Jaap.
Thanks Xander. I was looking at the two shops on the side of this page. Thought never occurred to me that I could order from Jaap (duh).
Man I hope my sample gets lost in the mail…confiscated by the PACT ACT Patrol… and tastes nasty as hell when and if it ever arrives But O man…I have a feeling ain’t none of that going to happen…and so here goes a second mortgage…or maybe sell a few kids…or better…offer my body for luv hire Damn it work in some nasty snuff once in a while Jaap…it’s time to start think about the customer for a change,
I want to make sure everyone understands that my last post was an attempt a humor I was trying to joke that I know Jaap’s newest snuff is going to be good and then I’ll have to place another big order and then my wife will say my snuff use is going to drive us into poverty. The whole point was that every snuff I have ever had from Molens is so good, I’ve always had to order more. Carry on
I’m surprised you didn’t receive the sample yet, sniffs. It’s worth the wait, nonetheless.
Hey Snifs, no attempting to sell your body without pics! har har…(my attempt at humor) Back on topic - I’ve emailed Molens but haven’t heard back yet, do they sell to U.S. residents directly from their website?
@zzedo310 Yes they sell directly Mind you Molens is not an online snuff shop. It is a real working mill. As such, it takes about 3-4 days longer for the whole order process (order… pay… arrive). I think Jaap pretty much does everything. That said, the service is prompt and the snuff is fantastic. Give him another day on the email and if he still has not responded, email him again…good chance the first email got zapped in cyber space or lost in the midst of the shuffle @BpB, Jaap whispered me today infact and told me that my sample should have already been here and that if it does not come by week’s end to let him know and he will send it out again…A perfect example of the great service he provides!!!..and for a free sample at that!!!
im still waiting for mine. sounds good so far!
I haven’t received mine yet, either, but then the USPS seems slower than usual lately. I’m probably just being impatient.
Mine’s not here yet either. Maybe they think Jaap’s sending terrorist supplies?
Hello Chris, Your first message didn’t reach me. If you whisper your address I’ll sent teh sample right away. Kindest regards, Jaap Bes.
Jaap, Got my sample today. So it made it through the PACT laden waters of the postal system just fine. First sniff and man o man this stuff is really good. It’s got a lot going on I’ll spend some time with it and report back Thanks for the sample!!!
It’s like the gingerbread snuff ive always wanted thanks Jaap
Thank you Jaap for the sample. I will be sure to purchase some Musintobak with my next order as it is very enjoyable. It arrived quite moist; the dominant scent for me is that of cinnamon and it has a sweetness to it.
@ Matt “It’s like the gingerbread snuff ive always wanted” Man it is!!!.. with a little chocolate mixed in the dough…but it’s not the sweet Nabisco ginger snap crap…it’s very balanced and un-candy-like………more like a high end, whole grain, muffin
I just got my generous sample after a small snafu. OMG this is good! I thought I had enough snuff til death as I placed a bunch of pre-pact orders, but Jaap sends me this! Oh well. This is a 6 star snuff!
I got my sample yesterday. Excellent flavorful snuff very nice and moist! One pinch leads to another. Will order more for sure!
Got my sample today. Thanks Jaap! I agree with the above, it’s very much like gingerbread or Dutch ginger cookies, spicy, with a molasses or brown sugar sort of sweetness. And so moist that it’s clinging to the little baggie. I’ll definitely have to order some.
Am I the only one who has not received a sample? Thanks to your reviews here, I really feel as if I am missing out…boo hoo! It’s all good though, I will patiently wait for one of our friendly vendors to add this to their offerings.
@ zzedo: Did you request a sample? Ask and you shall receive!@ Jaap: I have mine, thank you for going to extra trouble for me! Review forthcoming!
Yay! Got the sample today, THANK YOU JAAP! I could tell before opening the envelope that Musinotobak was going to be a snuff that I would like. The snuff scent escaping the envelope was a rich, dark & sweet tobacco scent. I just took one pinch and wow this stuff has some burn to it! But it smells delicious! I will be including this snuff in my next order! Now for the fun part, repeated sniffing to try and pick out all the flavors that make up this snuff! 10 minutes later: One more thing - what is fernambukwood?? I’ve now sniffed several pinches but have to call it quits, certain snuffs get my palms sweating pretty good and I am at that point which tells me that this snuff delivers the nicotine!
@ zzedo: According to my research, its Brazil wood aka Pernambuco wood.
Thank you all for the kind words! Xander is right. It is also used as a vegetable dye. Jaap Bes
Come on gents. This isnt cricket, is it. All these postings about the new snuff has my tongue (or should that be nose) hanging out but nothing at snuffreviews.com. Please will someone put me out of my misery and do an in depth review?
London Jack, No reviews on most new snuffs. I wish someone would review the 5 new WOS too.
I’m pretty sure one can eat this snuff. Anybody tried yet?
Well I haven’t got round so far as eating it! But the last three days I’ve’ been sniffing on Jaap’s good products intensely.
I must get more Bon Bon. It reminds me of my Erinmore pipe tobacco I used to smoke.
Last Saturday a deputation of the citycouncel from Kralingen visited the mill to discuss the possibliliy to use part of the Karottenfabriek as a museum. For that occasion we introduced another historical snuff: Mettaijer snuif. It is a fine ground Viginia tobacco flavoured with a winevinegar extract of valerian. If you like a sample, let me know before next Saturday through our website: www.snuifmolens.nl Jaap Bes
Hooray! (still waiting for St. Omer)
@ Xander: The St. Omer is still fermenting, a little more patience. Jaap Bes.
request sent! (rubbing my hands together in glee and anticipation of St. Omer)
Thanks Jaap for the offer of the sample. I’ve just emailed you.
I already have 100g of Mettaijer Snuif, for me it was love at first pinch. It reminds me of smoking a virginia cigarette.
extract of valerian? I take valerian root pills to help me sleep, and man they stink of dirty feet, not sure if I’d try a snuff made from valerian
@Filek: The only recipe I found was in a booklet that was kept in the mill and dates back till 1860. It is a very funny recipe: Take fresh Valerian leaves fill a beerjar with them add winevinegar, let it stand for eight days in the sun and mix it with the tobacco to your satisfaction. I’ve no idea what the name means. Looks German to me. @All: preparing your samples, they will be shipped to morrow. Jaap Bes.
Thanks Jaap my request was sent as well. Hope to try your other products.
Just put in my request. This one has me intrigued especially since I have no idea what to expect-- apart from that whole vinegar and dirty feet thing :>) Thanks Jaap!!
Sent in my request as well. Hope to see it soon.
Thank you Jaap for offer such wonderful sounding samples to all of us. I just sent my request for a sample of your new snuff Mettaijer.
I have some Mettaijer in my nose now. This snuff is like nothing else I’ve tried so far. I received a sample and then emmediately phoned Jaap to order 100g. I’m not going to say anymore.
Delicious. Just got the Mettaijer Snuif in this afternoon. While there is a slight vinegar scent, the valerian makes it taste rather sweet overall. The sweetness reminds me of a toned down US Sweet. Very pleasant stuff. Could anyone tell me what sort of containers the DK bulk comes in? I’ve been thinking of stocking up on the Chocomint and Chococreme (and now this), but I want to know if it comes in a bag, a proper tub like WoS bulk, or just a giant version of the DK tappers? Just need to know if I should buy some more glass jars before I place my order, and all.
@Alexander and shikitohno: Thanks for your kind words. @shikitohno: 100 gram comes in polypropylene screwcap containers. Jaap Bes.
Jaap, Thank you so much I Just got my sample today. To me Mettaijer is a very nice refined snuff. It is much more subtle than say an AO or AP The one flavor that comes to mind with this snuff is putting your nose in a bag of Brown Sugar Now let me clarify…this is not a sweet/dessert snuff…the flavor is more toasted/caramelized than sweet. I need to spend a little more time with it just to sort out all that is going on…but with every pinch I am coming to love it more and more Regardless, another really good offering that could well become an all day snuff for many
Got the Mett sample very quickly! Thank you Jaap! Only problem I have is that the day before receiving I came down with a nasty head cold and can’t smell anything! Hopefully my sense of smell returns tomorrow.
