J & H Wilson - SP No1

**** ya to this! Great add to a snuff collection. My go to 'Grab' for out by the fire.

Very impressed with the selection and the time it takes to get those products to the other side of the world. Great prices, reasonable postage - what else could you want?

I actually like this very much. It's dry but somehow doesn't burn. It's sort of SP but without too much bergamot. Takes well in a bullet since it's dry. Nothing particular stands out but for that reason I can see myself use it a couple times daily.

I was expecting far more heavier bergamot and lemon notes as per some of the reviews and product description, but I'm in agreement with Simon and his review. I wonder if the larger tins has more of a scent than the smaller 5g tin. I see this as something that I can take a lot of, quickly, with no menthol burn. I might buy the larger tin next time to see if there is any difference, or look for other bergamot snuffs. I love earl grey tea and I was excited to learn that they made bergamot snuffs but this doesn't live up to the true bergamot flavor.

J.&H. Wilson's S.P. No.1 is a classic SP-type snuff that delivers exactly what one would expect. Delightful notes of bergamot, lemon, and lavender float above base notes of earth, wood, grass, toffee, leather, and biscuit. The grind is medium-fine and slightly moister than some of the other SP snuffs out there, so this snuff does not come off as dusty and sits in the nose very well. The nicotine content is moderately high. For the most part, this is a balanced snuff suitable for any occasion or time of day. Fans of traditional English snuffs would likely love it.
