You guys are great. Snuff hard to find in US and even then limited variety, most McCrystals original. Selection great, communication great and delivery no issues.
Had a few orders Mr Snuff, first class service
Not sure if it’s just placebo, but I swear if I get a pinch up a clogged nostril it’ll clear it right out, to the point I can blow my nose, and get another pinch up there to keep the job done. Praise the good Doctor! 🙌
I had always read that Wilsons of Sharrow SM Blue and Dr. Rumney's Blue were basically the same snuff, but I am not sure that's correct. Having blasted my way through a full tin of each, I picked up some pretty obvious differences. Dr. Rumney's Blue is a mellower, subtler snuff. It is not nearly as sharp or as intense as SM Blue. The grind is medium with moderate moisture. To me, the tobacco base looks slightly darker and coarser than SM Blue. Mentholation is present but not nearly as strong or as intense as I was expecting. I got more camphor and eucalyptus than anything, though the menthol was still pretty noticeable. The base tobacco(s) contributed rich tones of earth, dark chocolate, and leather as well as something of a subtle peatines and a bit of barnyard funk. I also noted a citrus presence, something like lemon and/or bergamot, though my research failed to indicate that any citrus essences were added to this snuff. You can do this snuff all day with no ill effects due to the relatively low nicotine content. It sits in the nose wonderfully too. Overall, this is a very pleasant medicated snuff, one of the best and most approachable I have tried. It is probably my second favorite in the Dr. Rumney's range.
Like Anonymous above, I still have some old Dr Rumney’s tins – though mine are from the 1970s and 80s, not the 60s! - and very beautiful pieces of ephemera they are indeed. It was always my favourite tin, and my favourite menthol snuff. My nasal memory isn’t sharp enough to say whether this is a faithful recreation of the old stuff – I’m willing to take Wilsons word for that, they know more than I do – but in any case, taken on its own merits, it is a lovely snuff. Quite subtle, easy to take, and with a very comforting flavour.
