My order from MrSnuff is still in transit, but a tin of Sam G. Apricot arrived today, courtesy of the good and great DrumsAndBeer. Cracked 'er open and went about my first shot at snuffing.
GOOD TIMES, INDEED! Well, I mean aside from the initial need to sneeze no less that 463 times, which I assume will subside a bit with experience. Nice little tingle up front, then settled in nicely. I like this particular scent/blend/whatever its called in the snuff universe a lot...sweet, light, and pleasant. I will say, though, that I do agree with DBs criticism that it wasn't apricot-y at all. Sweet and fruity, absolutely, but to me its more of a peach/cherry. I guess if I were really searching for "apricot" I'd be disappointed, but I definitely like it for what it is.
Thanks again DB!
Oh - and a quick question for you guys: What's the "shelf life" of a tin once its opened? I know from reading around that there's a brand out there that uses no preservatives (Der Kralinersteinenweissenblatzershriner or something like that), but other than that, what should I expect?
