Tasting notes

Every report is read by a person before anything changes.

Shipping calculated at checkout.

McChrystal's Original & Genuine is built on menthol, camphor and eucalyptus, with citrus, spice, smoky and floral notes over a natural tobacco base. The blend has medium menthol, so the tobacco base stays noticeable. It is the oldest continuously produced snuff in the McChrystal's range.

The colour is light brown. It has a fine grind and medium moisture, and the fine grind is taken with a lighter sniff than usual. Nicotine strength is medium-light.

MC's original and genuine snuff is an excellent starter for anyone looking to get into the snuff world. O&G is a fantastic snuff to introduce someone to the mentholated and medicated side of snuff. From the perspective of an American (USA), this snuff sits as a baseline for medicated snuffs; medicated in this sense means the presence of menthol in addition to another cooling agent, such as camphor or eucalyptus.

If you're looking to start your day, this is a great way to open your nasal passages with a respectable level of menthol that lasts throughout the ritual and beyond. This initial coolness is complemented by a blended herbal ice made from eucalyptus or camphor, and the menthol will give way to a very smooth tobacco scent that lingers much longer than the menthol. The nose burn is mild, thanks to the menthol, which helps mask any discomfort, and even a very generous pinch results in a very minor drip. The grind is fine, almost medium; it sits well on your hand, but a light breeze can blow it away, and the base flour turns a light brown colour after it has been aired out.

The nicotine level is moderate to low, so you can enjoy it throughout the day; this snuff can be used all day, with just enough nicotine to keep you going in the long summer days or as a wake-up call in the morning. It has a medium moisture level, with only a little clumping, and there is enough moisture present to make this easy to pinch, but the fine nature requires a lighter sniff than normal. The moisture content is sufficient for an easy-to-use snuff.

纯粹的美好

鼻烟粉干细。刚吸入就是薄荷带来强烈的清凉冲击。相比伯纳德的松林款的人,明显觉得原真的薄荷更 “温柔”。半分钟左右薄荷的刺激消退,就是烟草底味,带点淡淡的可可香。二十分钟,味道就结束了。没太多花哨风味,质地和刺激度对新手友好,抽了其他的乱七八糟味道之后,这个确实能给你比较简单的,单纯的感觉。可以当做日常主粮使用。

'Pure and simple pleasure. The snuff powder is fine and dry. The initial inhalation delivers a strong, refreshing mint sensation. Compared to Bernard's Pine Forest version, the original mint feels noticeably gentler. The mint's irritation subsides after about half a minute, leaving only the base tobacco flavor with a hint of cocoa. The flavor ends after about twenty minutes. It doesn't have many fancy flavors; the texture and intensity are beginner-friendly. After trying other random flavors, this truly offers a simple and pure experience. It can be used as a daily staple.'

Snuff was better than expected

I have never had snuff before buying this and it has been a experience It gives a nice kick and the flavor pack of McChrystals was a suprise I didn't expect it to smell so loudly, the Regal Cafe is a deep rough cut that gives exactly what the description says, nice and bitter and bold.

Tried many brands

Ive tried dozens of brands and types of snuff but one stays #1 with me and that’s McChrystals original. My second favorite is Jip, it’s kind of an odd totally different snuff, but wow! Thanks Mr. Snuff for giving us in the USA such good service. Its nice to know I can count on you.

MR. SNUFF IS THE VERY BEST!

I am a loyal customer here! I've tried many snuff brands! I live in the US and snuff is almost impossible to find so I've tried several overseas brands. Genuine McChrystals is my go to! It takes awhile to get so I always make sure i order a few weeks before I'm actually going to need it. Bonus, they normally send me a little "free samples" of something and this last time they sent me the black cherry zyn, SCORE!! I haven't seen the black cherry minis in the US yet but I do regularly buy zyn, this one is the best I've tried so I'll probably add it to my order from now on.

Everything went great with the order and shipping. Takes a couple weeks to get to the state with standard so order early if your on a time restraint. But no problems and a great experience. Suggest them for anyone.

The Original

This was my first ever tin I got 6 years ago, and it's exactly what kept me going in nasal snuff. The menthol is well balanced, it's certainly not overwhelming, and because of that balance, the tobacco aroma comes through clean and smooth. The bite going in is minimal, and the more you snort, the more smooth it gets. Never tried nasal snuff before? This is an excellent choice for your first, and it gives you an idea as to what to expect with any other snuff there after. Thanks McChrystal's, you helped me quit cocaine and cigarettes. Clean for 6 years strong!

First Time Buyer of Snuff

I bought several different types of snuff from Mr. Snuff's website. It was a super easy process from start to finish. My order was sent in a timely manner, I got updates throughout, so I was well informed about where my product was. I liked variety on the site and all the snuff I got was great. If you want to buy or try snuff, Mr Snuff is the place to go. Great prices and an easy to navigate website.

Epic Snuff

This is my all time favorite snuff above all snuffs and I have tried many types of snuff's and this is still my number one everyday snuff. The tin note alone of fermented tobacco with hints of menthol and camphor the way McCrystals only can do this with there recipe is just wonderful and I wake up every single morning looking forward to a good sniff before I go outside to enjoy a nice pipe and coffee, this tradition I have done for years and McChrystal OG is my go to, also last but not least, Mr.Snuff has awesome customer service, they actually care about there customers and our business is truly important to them, that alone means so much to me as a customer and that my business actually matter's to them, so if your reading this and wonder will Mr. Snuff take good care of you and the answer is yes!!! plus the large assortment of wonderful AAA snuffs and in my opinion the Brit's are the master's of snuff making, there are other good snuffs out there but my British companions to me make the finest snuffs in the world. Thank you Mr.Snuff for being awesome and if you have not tried McChrystals OG I would highly encourage you to try it. Thank you for reading my review.
