Last order I got my first SG snuffs (the Crests) and I really like them. Now that I have more of a handle on stuffing, I’m thinking about trying one or two of their rappees. What should I get? I was thinking London Brown or Black Rappee.
I would recommend the Scotch Black. It’s pretty good although the grind is really course - like coffee grinds. But a good nic hit and not hard to take. If you’re still stuffing, you might want to work on it a little with this one as it will definitely fall right out of your nose in a big clump if you don’t really get it up in there. Not very sneezy snuff either. One of my new favs. I was supposed to get the Scotch SP, but they were sold out and didn’t tell me so they sent this instead and I’m kinda glad they did because I’m already hooked on good ol’ J & H Wilson’s SP No. 1. The Scotch black is just like a rappee too. Oh yeah the Red Crest is pretty good snuff as well as I’m sure you know by now.
It’s not a course snuff but give Golden Glow a try, the reviews on snuffreviews.com don’t do it justice imo. I’ve never been overly interested in trying many of the SG snuffs with their ridiculous names but I received some of this with my last snuff order and I’ve been blown away by it, it has a fruity, minty, woody, mentholated feel to it and it lingers in the nose longer than any other snuff I’ve ever tried.
Black Rappee is coarse, moist and briney. Lovely!
London Brown, Scotch Black and McCombie are my favorites. Do try the Kendal Browns too if you like Rappee’s.
