Man this snuff is one of my favorites! It’s aroma is like Arabic Coffee & Tea,very very good decadent as well. The aroma lingers and a pleasure to snuff. Very different take on snuff aroma. I love it!
It’s great stuff.

This Old Mill creation is mind-blowingly original. I have been known to salivate at the “menu” descriptions of many of Chef Daniel’s blends, but in the case of Arabesque, I found myself shoveling into the stuff before I had checked back online to see what I was about to get myself into.
The first thing that hit me was the cardamom-walnut-lemon-cinnamon combo, which was hard to miss, although in retrospect, I probably didn’t pick up on the walnut until I did read about the ingredients later. I think I just gave myself a bit too much credit there…Anyway, I love cardamom as a food ingredient, and am a fan of anything “lemon,” but the thing that struck me was that nothing in this snuff was at all harsh or overpowering. For those who care about such things, back-drip was minimal. Several of the ingredients are definitely identifiable, but they all just “coast along” in the nose, with the cardamom “sitting on top” a bit, which along with the lemon, was exactly what I was hoping for.
It’s easy, tempting, and usually a bit silly to say things like, “I felt as if I was in a coffeehouse in Jerusalem, Beirut, or Riyadh,” but seriously, this snuff gave me an immediate and strong sense of everything I love about Middle Eastern food and culture. I guess it just shows again how much our enjoyment of particular snuffs is composed of a strongly “mind/memory” thing.
There you have it. OM Arabesque is not to be missed if you have a taste for “exotic” snuffs.
