Over the past year, I decided to start reviewing a wider range of tobacco products that I enjoy. I love snus, but I've recently started reviewing other products like American dip and nasal snuff. I've used nasal snuff since 2009 or 2010, but I never really reviewed it much until recently. Now, you'll find nasal snuff reviews here at Snubie.com! McChrystals is a UK based company going back to 1926. They're currently in their fourth generation running the company. Today we're checking out their
Sunset snuff! The
product description for this one says, "
A tribute to the candied apricot". This is a 3.5 gram mini tin. These mini tins came in the
McChrystal's Sample Box.
Prior to this review, I hadn't had this one before, but apricot had me curious! It certainly is a unique, intriguing snuff. Opening the tin, the aroma that comes straight through is a mild, simple, lightly sweet aroma of apricot. This one has a medium grind, and a medium moisture amount. It's pretty easy to take, as well. In the nose, it's mostly apricot, but it's a pretty subtle apricot. It's fresh, and fruity, with a light sweetness. There's a very faint tobacco backing, as well. It doesn't have a major throat hit, nor does it really have much drip to it. In terms of nicotine strength, it's pretty average, and has a decent hit to it. The aroma doesn't linger too much, but there is a subtle apricot presence and a light sweetness that hangs out for a minute.
Rating and Final Thoughts
I like McChrystal's snuff. I find their stuff easy to work with, and pretty high quality. I mostly use McChrystal's, Toque, and Dholakia snuff in my personal rotation. So, it's one of my three favorite brands. I rated this one at 3.17/5. It's a pretty solid one. While it's not one I'd use all the time, it's one I could definitely see myself using on occasion. It would also make a great snuff to use in the summer!
I bought this one from
MrSnuff.com. You can too! Also, use code
