Sam G. Apricot

[DrumsAndBeer]

This is the first snuff that I have tried that I would have to catagorize as dreadful. I grew up in a house with 7 Blenhiem apricot trees on the lot and this stuff is about as apricoty as a cherry Jolly Rancher. The sweet fruit scent and deep tobacco tone don't work for me. It's like a turd wrapped in a fruit roll-up. My schnoz was crying foul at the flavor of this product.

If you enjoy this flavor or you're intersted in trying it, there's a free tin for the first Brother to PM his addy. I have vacuum sealed it in a food saver bag to keep it sealed and fresh.

Wow, that is one of my favorites. Hopefully a brother who hasn't tried it yet PM's you quick.

Yeah Kaiser, I am a bit bummed that this one wasn't for me.

The Sammy G. snuff aside everything else I have tried so far is great.

As per your recommendation the F&T Morlaix is very nice. I thought I was not going to like it, but the tin scent and applied scent are remarkably different. It's amazing how much it opens up once inhaled. Even more so with F&T French Carotte, which smells bad in the tin, but lovely once applied.

The tin is still looking for a good home.

SG fruit scents and I never clicked.

I like a lot of their snuffs. Just not those.

poschl makes a SG Apricot that I believe to be different from the regular SG variety. - it is tops in apricot yumminess...

 

[petertschantz]

the poschl is definitely different, with a nice menthol kick. I happen to like them both...

 

[DrumsAndBeer]

Yep, love the Poschl stuff but comparing the two is apples and oranges. The Poschl has a nice dried apricot scent that comes through ever so slightly beneath what I think is a pretty intense menthol experience. I was hoping the Sammy G stuff would have the Poschl scent minus the menthol. The SG is just waaaaay too sweet for my tastes.

Just like pipe tobacco. Luckily they make so much there is something for everyone!
