JIP doesn't mess around. This blend is like OG kicked up a notch, and I think of McChrystal's OG as being in the same family. This snuff is easy enough to pinch, with boxcars being only for the brave of heart.
There is a ratio of menthol, camphor and eucalyptus, and this blend leans a bit more to the eucalyptus and punches twice as hard. The tobacco is Mocha Brown, with just a few lighter tan specks, and a bit darker and more moist than OG. The moisture is sufficient to hold the snuff in the hand, making it easier to use, and the moisture in the metal tin and smaller clumps of tobacco are visible. The background tobacco I find to be weaker in this snuff, and a hair bit more drip than the OG.
The medium-fine grind makes it easy to pinch, but it is light and sharp. This is one of those snuffs that disappears into the nose fast, without resistance or drag. Do not overdo your sniff, or it will end up in your throat. The Vitamin N content of this is medium-high, so watch those pinches. There is a respectable punch of cooling agents and nicotine that deserves attention, especially in pinches, and the sharp cooling effect can be overpowering and irritating if snuffed too harshly.
Overall, an excellent snuff for the day, and in moderation, can last you all day long without a nicotine headache.
Just like Simon there's always a tin of jip in my pocket! This snuff is absolutely fantastic 👏 everything about it from the grind to the menthol levels are perfect. To me it's a nice everyday medicated Menthol with a hint just a every so slightly hint of orange in the background floating around whispering to your senses.
Great snuff in the mixed bundle. Glad I found Mr Snuff
Will purchase again. Thank you
I carry this one around with me in my tap box. Great pick-me-up.

While my order took some time to get to me I am very pleased with the selection and the prices! Worth the wait!
It’s the best honestly!
Awesome snuff
Fabulous tobacco and wonderful prices
Jip has got to be my most favorite snuff thus far and will certainly be my go to moving forward. The mentholatum is just powerful enough and not overbearing. I get the “medicinal” aspect as well. It’s fine enough where it does not irritate my nose/airways and opens me up with just enough menthol flavor and “kickstart”. Jip is a gem!
Good job.

Great service. Arrived in the USA then to my place within 2 weeks. Only delay was a US Holiday which slowed it down. Postillion is now a new favorite. Always a pleasure Mr. Snuff. Thank you.
I like this a touch more than O&G, but not sure why. It's just plain pleasant!
Really is a staple in any snuff rotation. I always find myself carrying this little tin around
Love this stuff, I use OG and Jip and love them both but Jip is special, has a hint of spice in the background and I love it yep!!!
Wow just wow this snuff blew me away! My first ever thing putting up my nose and it was amazing. Menthol with a nice flavor of tobacco I couldn’t stop taking it! Now, every time I make new orders I always add 2-3 tins of it. It is that good. So if you like menthol and tobacco coming through this is for you. I know it’s for me!
What can I say that hasn't already been said, Jip is Great snuff highly recommended.
Very very nice snuff. It has a nice kick to it. First time trying, made my hair tingle, my nose burn, and my eyes water. Definitely going to need more.
This has to be one of my favorite snuffs I have come across to-date.
I started off with O&G from McChrystals and then went to S.P and then Highland Ice. All of these snuffs where amazing to keep me interested in the hobby and to explore. I orderd a large shipment of snuffs from MrSnuff to try out and this one has got to be hands down my favorite. The effects and smell are exactly what I am after, its a little pick me up - with a excellent refreshing minty scent.
If you ever debated trying this snuff - DO IT!
Thank me later.
This is defiantly one of my Top 5 snuffs. Reddish medium fine cut. Nice and fluffy. Kind of sweet and mentholated. Has a wicked kick to it. Top Shelf Quality.
Excellent snuff. Very fluffy, easy to take but with a menthol/eucalyptus punch. Has some sweetness to it. Definitely in my top 5 menthols. Wish they had an in-between size instead of the tiny tin and giant tub.
I have Redbull, Stormbreaker, Hedges L260, and McChrystal's Original and Genuine. I very much enjoy menthols and can handle the eucalyptus in the Redbull. I think there is a very minor difference in terminology but striking contrast between the cooling of eucalyptus & menthol and the burning of peppermint / camphor. I had to do more research and found a google search describing my experience.
"Camphor is a waxy solid substance having a strong aroma while menthol is an organic compound having the ability to chemically trigger the cold-sensitive receptors in the skin. The key difference between camphor and menthol is that camphor provides a warm sensation, whereas menthol provides a cooling sensation" -- The camphor burn is a mix hot and cold sensations.
I think JIP is the 'strongest' of all 4 listed, because of the camphor/peppermint burn, I'd say nicotine is on the medium side, but the burn just makes me sneeze and is very limiting in taking more than a pinch. Grind is good, moisture is good. For some it's a good decongestant, and for others like myself - I'm most likely mildly allergic to the camphor / peppermint. These things happen, it shouldn't knock you from trying it and learning what you like.

I always take a menthol with me each day. This one is often in my pocket. I plan on getting a huge tin of this next time its in stock..
I heard great things about this snuff so I thought I’d try it for my first snuff.
Was not dissapointed
Loved it for my first snuff. Glad I got some before y'all sold out. The menthol was great for clearing my nose. Need to get a sample box to try some without menthol. Thank you Mr. Snuff!!! I will be back
I've only been "snuffing" for a few months but I've tried quite a selection in that time. Jip could easily be my go-to. It's smooth, plenty potent and doesn't take the top of your head off. I'm disappointed that it's out of stock!
I'm relatively new to snuff and have tried about 6 different flavors. My nasal passages agree with menthol/mint type snuffs and this is no exception. To me, it's really smooth and doesn't take the top of my head off like many others. I find it interesting that different people get different results. Some have reported this as being, "strong" or "powerful". To me, it's mild compared to, say, Six Photos Coffee Kick or Sicilian Burst. Those kick my butt!
I could see this being my go-to snuff.
I decided to try this based on Simon's recommendation from simply snuff channel on YouTube. I very glad I did.this a very good all day long snuff the menthol is goldilocks. I will probably be getting a 200 gr tub in the future. Medium grind ,moist.very easy to use and not much burn. Thank you Simon if you ever read this.
