Hedges L260 is a heavily mentholated snuff with a medium-fine grind and slightly moist texture. The blend uses dark tobacco as a base but the menthol note is the strongest, accompanied by eucalyptus and camphor. Secondary notes include chocolate, citrus, and cinnamon spice.
The nicotine strength is medium to strong. The colour is medium brown with slight red tints. This is a medicated-style snuff with a recipe dating to the 1800s when such blends were used for nasal relief.
