Has anyone noticed that recent batches of some Sir Walter Scott’s snuffs are  w a y  d i f f e r e n t  than they used to be?

Some weeks ago I saw a post with the changed Havana Toast picture on Facebook Nasal Snuff Takers group. And earlier this week I got my hands on a good sample of the new St. James, which now looks… like this:

So, it’s obviously not a toast anymore. Medium brown, medium moist and medium grind. Very, very chocolaty. Good strength, nice burn.

It is a decent snuff, but not the good old St. James.

Thats tragic, sjp was one of my favorite toasts

That looks and sounds like 50/50 ?

@Johnny, that makes sense! I suspected mislabeling, but being not familiar with 50/50, wasn’t sure. I’m happy with this unexpected opportunity of trying Your new snuff. I must say it found it’s place among my favourite snuffs!

Now I rest assured knowing that St. James is unchanged. I assume Havana Toast changes, mentioned in Facebook NST group, might be explained by different freshness (reseller’s issue).
