Have not seen a review of it yet. So I thaught, I should start a descussion.

The Viking Scotch Dark is a really nice treat. It is medium coarse and moist and deeply black in colour. The flour and the taste reminds me very much of the former, no longer produced, Gawith Hoggarth Kendal Brown, which I did like very much: pure tobacco with a deep wood-like taste. The Viking Scotch Dark is a very satisfying snuff for me. I like it. 

Just ordered some of this, as well as some of the other more recent Viking additions. I cant wait to post my thoughts!

I have a tin of this as well, and agree that it is a very satisfying snuff. Campfire and smoked kippers are the main scents I get from it. My only complaint was that the grind was a little course for my liking, so I put it in my mini grinder to make it slightly finer. After that, it was perfect. IMO it’s not one for all-day use; I got a headache from taking it too many times in a day. But as a nice treat after a satisfying meal, it can’t be beat!

Viking Scotch Dark is medium grind and medium moist to very moist so its hard for me to take.Its the complete opposite of an American scotch except for hints of smokey ness… I’ll need to dry it out some. It smells of a slight smokey scent with leather notes in the background. It reminds me a lot of Old Paris but really not enjoying the grind. My nose is used to fine, dry snuffs but I have hope this one will be better tomorrow.

I still haven’t experienced this snuff, having previously received a Scotch Dark tin containing Santo Domingo - I seem to be getting all sort of tins and tubs containing Santo Domingo of late!

There are a few more recent tins of Scotch Dark here, but I’ve decided to give the Viking range a break for a while and leave myself in suspence about what might be in those tins. Hopefully it’ll be worth the wait.
