Just browsing Wilsons of Sharrow’s website and I see these two new blends listed for sale, but no photos posted yet. I hope to try them soon, and also the Sherry which I hadn’t got to yet, though its been out a few months now.
Between SG and WoS … looks like the race is on for Apple snuff … but I thought I recalled reading from Roderick in the new Toque flavors thread that apple was a hard scent to duplicate. These sound good, though.
Snuffbrant, Roderick says every flavor is "impossible’ so he looks like a WIZARD when they are produced. That’s how he works
aha! well now i know … thanks, bart. i might add, though, with his wizardry with flavors - he should have beat the old school snuff makers to this one, then. i will say, based on Cherry, Strawberry and Apricot from SG, i am reluctant to give their chemical flavoring any credence. i will gladly await Roderick’s impossible Apple.
The first snuff miller to make a lilac flavored snuff will be the first one to impress me!
When you’ve got a small team or one man trying to blend a scent it’s impossible untill you get it. Especialy if you’re using natural flavors. I’ve seen the same thing with chefs a million times. They’re trying to pull off something very specfic and while they’re trying to get it oh it’s impossible they’re stupid for trying then of course this is where it differs from roderick once they do get it, suddenly it’s reallly really easy and any idiot can do it. (doesn’t matter how many years it took of trying to make tofu taste like bacon without using fat it’s simple). So sometimes it’s good that we don’t hear the whole creative process cause it doesn’t make the best copy.
Blackcurrant? Does that mean that they’re aiming this one at americans? Or I’am I miss informed when told that brits refer to black currants as black berry? Someone help an ill-informed american out.
Blackcurrant and black berry are two different fruits. A blackcurrant is a small round berry, a blackberry is similar to rasberry.
does thou speak as a brit?
Indeed, I do!
awesome thank you.
my info source on that one is sometimes right and sometimes completely off about half and half so I had to ask.
Don’t trust your info source on Dingleberries, Bob. I can tell you the truth about them.
I hear they’ll give you free dingleberry jam at the factory tour, if you ask.
It’s called Dholakia Black
I’ve heard that about Dholakia Black and NTSU too. I definatly want to try the black.
@bob i am not totally sure but in case you are serious about it, go and try the NTSU Black - it is a hell of a rought redneck nic bomb. about the topic, i cant wait to get the apple flavour (i really like apples) from all of thoose who produce some
I’ve tried the NTSU black. Not bad liked the scent alot. Didn’t really feel like it was that strong to be honest.
So did anybody try these yet? They’ve been out a few weeks now.
@bob Really ? I have to admit that this somehow surprises me because i feel definitly the strong kick NTSU Black provides to my nostrils. Maybe you are a die-hard nic-addict ? (NOT A OFFENSE!!!)
