The High Drive is guarana scented. It’s good, a real nice medium brown, and kind of fluffy. But it’s not any higher in nicotine, nor does it have a guarana-like speediness. It’s just a good snuff. I wrote to the company asking what flavor it was, and he answered back and told me it was guarana. He said it was like “Red Bull” energy drink, but I think it is only the flavor, not the actual seed or fruit or whatever it is that gives that drink it flavor. At any rate, you should try it, it’s quite nice. I like their Rose, and Queen’s Special too. I’ve never tried the chocolate/tangerine.
@mrmanos. Don’t really care for the Chocolate Tangerine, not chocolate and orange in general, I got a large tin as a replacement for another small tin that was out of stock.

Hello Guys , yes the new Jaxons is out retail - www.snuff.me.uk and wholeasle - www.snuff.ltd.uk
Samuel Gawith no longer make jaxons snuff , which has allowed me to improve ( in my own opinion ) the snuff and scents, design and away with the old plastic sliders
NOTE: anyone that wants wholesale or can recommend any online shops or high street shops i can get in contact let me know through info@snuff.ltd.uk or through IM on here
cheers

A new name to me and in the UK too. Thanks for the heads up. I will have to give them a try.
I ordered Jaxons club special (chocolate tangerine) about a month ago to replace wos chocolate orange, its a different take to it…but I must say I am really enjoying it and it has been my all day snuff since, find it perfect for every situation. Smells exactly like mcvities chocolate orange club biscuits lol.
I will definitely try other jaxons snuffs I was pleasantly surprised by the gr8 quality. I think I will stock up on this and also get the alpine and queens special.
Been taking Alpine (Vanilla) and I am equally impressed, its become my new daily driver, been a week and its almost finished. Its second snuff from Jaxons I get and again the quality is really good, this brand is pleasant will have to continue with the other flavors to explore.
The snuff is rather moist and tends to release a lot of liquid in the nose (forward drip hits pretty fast).
I personally like that because you blow your nose and your left with the scent and the nicotine and don’t have to worry about your nose becoming clogged.
Flavor is strong and natural, has somewhat of a creaminess about it.
i find the jaxons are kind of underrated
they come in strong artificial flavoring but its done well in my opinion and does not remind me of child toothpaste even the frosted fruity ones (i love the frosted apri and ripple!)
english gold and queens special is great too and i like how long the taste/smell lingers with all the jaxons which could be too much for some but if you like fruity or sweet snuffs without too much or any menthol at all give them a try.

today i mixed some “frosted apri” with lots of “english gold” i did not measure but until the peach/apricot smell blended in and was not too pronounced over the creamy/toffee/coconut
this came out great!

Jaxons. Strange snuff. Wonderful snuff. Wacky snuff. Wild, weird, stuff. I love it! 
Like @SunnyDay these give a feel of artificial flavoring. Not just flavoring - sweetness too. I don’t know if it’s a sugar or fake sugar like aspartame in diet coke. I hate diet coke though and love these. Have not put diet coke in my nose to compare! But all that strangeness aside the three I have (Club Special, Coffee Cream and Apri Frosted) are all delightful. The apricot is Not like Silver Dollar and WoS’ true apricot. But I like it a lot better than McChrystals apricot (though I wonder if they’re the mystery producer?) I wish I could pick them up at MrSnuff but I guess competition is a healthy thing. I see snuff.me.uk order for the entire lineup in my future Any updates on who is making this stuff for @jayjay and why they are so sweet aroma’d? I used to be offended by the sweetener but now I’m over and thoroughly enjoying it

Samuel Gawith used to make it …I believe he switched over to Sharrow around the TPD time .
I ve been meaning to try thier plain for a while .
@Pikey The plain one is OK. I expected it to be it re-labeled WoS Natural (which I like a lot), but was surprised to find it different (tobacco, colour, even grind and moisture-wise) and a tad stronger.
Despite preferring the sweeter WoS Natural to absolutely plain Jaxons SP Premium, I will reorder another tin next time.

3 months later, still a big fan of the very off the wall Club Special. Just received another two 20g tins of it. My wife loves the Extra Strong and 1869 for their medicated qualities. The ES is a bit much for me but the 69 is nice and euc focused. I had Queen Special a couple times now. Quite Jaxon style in that it is weird, wacky yet moreish. In contrast to some older posts on this thread, probably from when SG ead the producer, QS is certainly Not Celtic Talisman. Word is that these are made by Sharrow these days? I would be inclined to agree as the QS smells of cherry cough drops just like WoS Red. The snuff I dont think will be a re-order, but hey - I thought the same thing of Club Special and now it’s one of my favorites. Now to try Duke’s Brown

Does the QS really taste like Parma Violets? I might be interested.
@AgentSmith I just learned what Parma Violets are just now! So I cannot comment on that I’d say though that I, personally, do prefer their Club Special, Golden Roast, SP, 1869 and Duke Brown (quite nice, and distinctly Jaxon) to the Queen Special as well as Frosted Apri. So for a first order of Jaxons maybe consider getting one of those too so you get more than one example. There’s a sugary aspect to many of the Jaxon snuffs that I’d love to hear explained. The color of the base on the sweet ones is too dark to have a meaningful amount of say WoS Ice in it
@ar47 Thanks for the recommendations.
Looking at the tin sizes and weights (20g as opposed to 25g), I’m guessing Jaxons are contracting these from McChrystal now, although I still haven’t tried any since they shifted production. I’ve still got a few tins of the Gawith made stuff squirrelled away somewhere.
