I seen to open tins more often then finishing one.Please share your first impressions Today I opened Dholakia coffee cream- similar to Wow coffee bite but creamier
Wos Apple and Black Currant
Dholakia Swiss Chocolate for the first time and man it was blissful. Sorry Toque but your Chocolate is not one of my favourites, it actually put me off buying the Dholakia because I find it to be a bit like hot chocolate powder. Anyway, the Swiss Chocolate tastes very authentic to me and I love the consistency. If only it were a tin I opened and not a plastic pot, thatās the only thing resembling a complaint.
This evening I opened a lot of tins for the first time - Dholakia Chocolate Rose, Toque Camphor & Clove, Dean Swift Specific, Molens Mettaijer, Viking Blonde, GH Sea Breezes, SG Maās Ruin and Gin & Tonic. I am in love with them all. In fact from my new order the only one I havenāt tried yet is WoS Irish Toast 21, and thatās just because I canāt get the blasted thing openā¦
Finally opened the Irish Toast #21 - had to cut the tin open and decant into another minor WoS tin. First trouble iāve had with a Wilsonās tin in 5 yearsā¦ anyway, the snuff is very nice, somewhere between the #20 & #22 in that it is nutty and smoky but still has a tiny scent of SP to it, IMO.
Silver Dollar Spearmint. Havenāt been able to afford to place online orders, but Iām stuck with what we sell at the shop I work at. Considering itās Silver Dollar and Toque USA, thatās not necessarily a bad thing.
Grand Cairo, in a 10g tin, about 2 YO and hasnāt lost a stepā¦
Packardās Club Snuff- the dispenser is a love hate thing.Love when it works hate when it donāt. canāt get past the menthol to enjoy the scent. I do like the effect!

@basement_shaman I keep 2 refilled dispensers with me at ALL times. I mean ALL times! I just woke up a few minutes ago with both of them in my hand. HOPEFULLY Iāll be falling asleep again in a few minutes, and guess where theyāll be? 
toque quit. I am sure there is rustica in it. It smells like rustica which i used it as dipping for many years.
Viking Brown
SG Firedance. I couldnāt find any reviews online but ordered it partly because I liked the name, and partly because some members here regard it highly. I can see why. A wonderful snuff, with blackberry and vanilla flavours with a hearty tobacco base.
Now for the GH Irish D. Itās almost exactly like a US Scotch. It has that BBQ smokiness to it that other UK toasts donāt.
Peeled off the green tape around the lids of 2 WoS tins āIrish coffeeā & āCoffee creamā Part of todays āCoffee challengeā which will be fun.
I did the exact same thing this morning before I even read your post.
GH Dry Orange. Very nice. Medium moist, very like Toque Toast & Marmalade without the toast.

Sounds more like āmedium moist orangeā to me. I had a tap box of that years ago and it was EXTREMELY dry. I think that was the first snuff that I tried that wasnāt an American scotch or a Poschl menthol. Nearly choked to death on it lol.
Found a store in Richmond that sells General Swedish Snus. I bought a couple of cans and opened them yesterday. Pretty much a straight tobacco flavor. They also had pipe tobacco mixed by a local blender. Good quality tobacco and the price was decent (less than $3.00 an ounce). I got the Virginia Blend and Latakia Blend.
SG Toffee. Deep tobacco flavour and a nice but not overpowering toffee scent. @EricJ: I know what you mean. One of the first snuffs I bought when I started about 5 years ago was GH Strawberry in a tap box. I knew no better at the time. It was foul - bone dry and strangely perfumed; it was like sniffing Shake N Vac. Totally put me off all GH snuffs until very recently.
Silver Dollar Blueberry and also Silver Dollar Apricot.
