Vanilla in Lundy Foot!?!? :-/
Maybe I’m wrong? It is rather sweet though so I wonder how they did that. With Auld Alliance it says on MrSnuff that they added vanilla pods to enhance natural sweetness. How did they do it with Lundy Foot I wonder?
I agree that I get quite a bit of sweetness from Lundy foot, though no vanilla. I also get no vanilla from SG Black Coffee, though there is some kind of ‘high note’ that isn’t just black coffee, to me. I find that that scent mellows over the course of a couple days away from it’s bulk container, though the coffee mellows right along with it.
I think the Dholakia Coffee Cream coffee part has faded very quickly also which is a pity. I would not order Black Coffee again based on the tin I have so I happily leave it all for you lovers of this snuff and no point in getting more Dholakia either. Looks like I will be sticking with the WoS Irish Coffee but maybe someday I will get to try this reputedly wonderful Cafe 11 and still to try the Toque Expresso but I don’t think it has had many glowing reports or what about the Jaxons Coffee Cream? Tia Maria is also off the list. As a side note I have added both the SG and Dholakia Gin & Tonic to the reorder list. Really had a turnaround with these two and they are both quite different, the Dholakia having the rich tobacco base. They seem to make a nice alternative to my normal toast use.
@I_snuff_therefore___ Try the Cafe 11 when you can, it is my favourite snuff by far, and worth the premium price. Toque Espresso was a disappointment to me so I won’t bother with that again. I may give the WoS Irish Coffee a go, but what I really want is a snuff that smells like a freshly opened bag of ground coffee. The quest will continue!
@Wanderer I’m begining to think at the moment it’s maybe best just to make a nice cup of coffee and choose some other snuff that goes well with it but strangely I do like my made up coffee blend of snuff (using various coffee snuffs + some Lundy Foot & Dragun) with a coffee drink? From memory though even freshly opened ground coffee goes off very quickly even when refridgerated so I gave up on that and just use instant granules and I survive pretty well. The Irish Coffee from WoS is maybe the equivalent.
Had a brainwave. I’m going to give the Black Coffee the same therapy as I gave the Tia Maria into which I blended some F&T Morocco and Princess Special and which I’m still loving (just had 3 good pinches and I seem to get some sweet earthy apple scent now, great), so I will be able to make another batch once this one is finished. It might work even better with the stronger Black Coffee.
Well, I decided to order three tapboxes of Black Coffee at SnuffStore to keep me going, and though it’s listed there again the stuff is still out of stock! For the last three nights I’ve taken to opening my box of Tia Maria right up by taking the side right off and leaving it in a sealed plastic box of ground coffee, and it’s got noticeably stronger in scent so it’ll work 'til I get lucky and the Black Coffee is finally back in stock, but I need my fix of the real thing! Driving me mad waiting, and at this rate I’m going to miss out on their free delivery deal… 
tapboxes. So sorry for you.
tapboxes. So sorry for you.
Feel more sorry for me having none. It’s all SnuffStore do (when they do), and I like the simplicity of their ordering system. The one box I managed to order seemed to be moist enough, held it’s moistness, and certainly seemed to have loads more flavour than the original poster reckons he got from his 25g tin.

Wow, now there’s an idea; snuff dispensers - Can you imagine a vending machine full of a variety of snuff flavours and brands, all ready to be yours at the insertion of a few coins! As for these mental tins, are they planning to deliver by thought transference? 
@HR_pufnsnuff when we have flying cars I will install a snuff dispenser on your street.
a snuff dispenser sounds awesome… maybe could dispense little metal screw top vials or something to grab and take with you.
Howdydave has one: http://www.howdydave.com/gif/snuff\_automat.gif
This may be an older thread, but… Just got the SG Black Coffee. Its quite lovely, but I get only the smallest hint of coffee. I can’t identify the other scents, but they are there, with coffee hiding amonst them. The only coffee snuff I’ve found that I really like is the Poschl Grado Caffe. Strong, great smelling, wish they omit the menthol, but its still the truest coffee flavor I have tried. The Fugazi Black Joe is so fine, and oiled, it hits my throat, getting in the way of enjoying the cafe au lait flavor. Its getting better with age, and some airing out. Might mix in a toast to even out the oiliness.
@mrmanos if your looking for coffee snuff you might want to give Wow Coffee Bite a try.
Thanks for the tip. I like the SG coffee more and more. I’m on my 4th day of trying it out. I notice the vanilla quite a lot, and some other great flavors, coffee seems to be the least I get from it. But that said, it still is a very nice snuff. I’ll try the WOW next order. My other technique is to take small pinches of freshly ground coffee, followed by pinches of White Elephant or a toast. I did that this morning with my newly acquired SG Irish D Lite, and it was quite nice. The coffee scent, mixed w/ the Irish was nice. I always like experimenting. I still have my home made cigar/ coffee snuff even though its a little on the primitive style. Next time I try to mix up a batch I will use the basic formula I’ve read about here on SH.
black coffee- although at the time of trying this snuff i only detected a tiny resemblance to any coffee i ever tried, since trying it, i have noticed a similar taste in a liquor from xoriguer in their tasting room, and just now i am trying nescafe Azera instant coffee. it smells almost the same from memory. looks like SG black coffee tastes of coffee after all… just not any real coffee. multiple reviewers on amazon uk describe this azera as tasting like crappy instant coffee from the 70s. i was never in the 70s… but that description says a lot.
I visited Samuel Gawith in Kendal and picked up four tins direct from the mill, three are in the fridge and the other is well and truly in my daily routine, and to me it definitely is strongly coffee scented, I love it as much as I ever did. While I was there I also got some Vanilla, and that’s made on the same tobacco base as the coffee - I wonder if you’ve got a mislabelled tin? Either way, they’re both delicious.
