Bernard - Steife Prise
Bernard - Steife Prise
Bernard Steife Prise is a German snuff with a medium-coarse grind and slightly moist texture. The blend has a tan colour and uses fermented tobacco as its base. Tasting notes include sharp peppermint, menthol, vanilla, and natural tobacco with smokey undertones.
The peppermint note is the strongest element, with tonka bean adding vanilla accents. The nicotine strength is medium. The grind is fluffy and the moisture level sits between dry and moist.

Sooner than expected and all the way to Texas! Snuff is great. Excellent, superb even. Muchas gracias por todo.
Very good snuff!
Deze snuif is lekker fris, elke keer weer. Uitgebalanceerde aroma's, en lekker vochtig. Droogt de neus niet uit. Een echte aanrader voor liefhebbers van menthol snuif!
love the branding. found this one fermented, lots of cooling power but not sweet
The name of this snuff and the ship on the box is a little German play on words Steifeprise and Steifebrise ("stiff pinch" and "stiff breeze" rhyme). This pun is the signpost for some wonderful snuff ahead. This was the first of the new Bernard by McChrystal's that I tried, and it's great. Although it is different than the original German Bernard—mainly in that the tobacco consistency is a little different, being slightly drier and less fluffy—the end product is still reminiscent of the original and it's certainly a fine snuff. Think of it more like comparing apples to oranges rather than better or worse in terms of original vs new. The McChrystal family have obviously been working hard to get it right, and after trying a few, so far I'd say they're doing quite a good job of making these recipes. Being a hobbyist snuff maker myself, I can tell you it's no easy task what McChrystal's has done here.
As for Steifeprise attributes, it has this incredibly pleasant characteristic of being cooling and warming at the same time. There's your usual peppermint out front, but there's also some lovely spices in there which make it a great pairing for cold weather, cool rainy days, the holiday season, etc. A demi-gros snuff with a texture somewhat similar to Rosinski's offerings (RIP). The texture is a little grainy in the nose at times, but never so much that it's coarse of unpleasant. I'm keen to try more of what the McChrystal family has been resurrecting under the Bernard flag. Steifeprise will surely become a favorite of medicated snuff enthusiasts and a great seller for McChrystal's. Keep up the good work over there in Leicester!
