…well beside the fruit and the menthol i detect a third flavor… which reminds me of Packards Club… and I m one of the guys who don t like this snuff much…
I haven’t yet had them yet, but I’ve got three PG’s coming from the UK snuff shop: Black Knight Iceberg Menthol Strong I can’t wait to give them a try
Hmmm… on trying my sample of the QWS Sandal Wood I had the feeling that I had tried this one before, but I hadn’t. Then it struck me - it’s pretty well identical to the Paul Gotard Sandal Tree. Same colour, same grind, same taste. So, could it possibly be Dholakia who makes the Paul Gotard snuffs?
Well, wouldn’t that be interesting! I’m dying to know!
Tony: Are there any packaging similarities?
No, not all. The Paul Gotard snuffs come in a 10g circular metal tin of different design to the Wilson’s/McChrystal’s/Sam Gawith ones whereas the QWS snuffs all seem to come in 10g round plastic pots. It’s just the snuff itself which seems so similar. I’d love to hear other people’s thoughts on this one.
Perhaps Dholakia makes the snuff and ships it to PG, where it is packaged? This has me really curious!
Me too!
Is the sandalwood the only one that is seemingly identical?
It’s the only Paul Gotard I have so I don’t know I’m afraid.
I mean just that one flavor?
Paul Gotard Coffee and QWS Irish coffee are also seemingly identical… but very good snuff, my Pg coffe tin is empty now.
And the plot thickens!
so…who makes it? Is there a company website? How do we stock it in the USA? Any ideas?
http://www.faja.com.pl Talked at the InterTabac to the head of the company “Synchro”, Pawel, who told me it was produced by a french company before… whichever that may be… but now being produced in Poland. Tried their “Ganges” snuff there as well, which is quite similar to the Dholakia White in taste and nicotine and grind and colour and everything, but much easier to take.
Has anyone else noted the remarkable resemblance between the tin logo and Al Pacino as Shylock in the 2004 “Merchant of Venice”
Uncanny!
Not so much uncanny as it is… Al Pacino. Something tells me that’s a bit illegal.
For ease of viewing:
maybe the real paul gottard is al pacino??? Time travel anyone???
