Viking - Dark 鼻烟

Nice earthy sent , similar to Thors Hammer without the hammer .

This is the only place across all British Islands I could find whithe elephant 🐘

Didn't think I'd like it at first now it's one of my favorites. Hint of menthol without being medicated dark and earthy. No sneezes or drips mild burn. Basic good for me at least everyday snuff.

This was perfect with a beer. This is a very robust snuff.

This is a coarse, moist snuff that has a wonderful plain, dark tobacco smell. It is very easy to take and Vit N is High. I never leave home without a tin of this. A little drippy but well worth it!

Hello all, I ordered Viking Dark on my first delivery. I received 100G tub and upon opening it was shocked by the natural aroma of raw nicotine. It has a hay scent coming through and was eager to try it. To my surprise it was simply amazing tobacco taste and very hard hit of nicotine. Lives up to the name. If you like raw tobacco this is a must try.

Very nice basic snuff. Great alone, but also a fantastic base to add other flavors with. There's an apricot flavored snuff I like, only it's too fruity on it's own and it's a bit too powdery and dry. Mixing with the Viking dark tempers the taste and holds the dry, loose bits down because it's nice and moist. Has good nicotine content and gives a slight and pleasant burn on it's own. Highly recommend.

I smell nothing but manure, just smelling the tin makes me gag,

For the price of crappy vaporbar, you can buy yourself a tub of this Viking snuff. The snuff itself is excellent. It smells very natural, tobacco forward, it's moist with some sort of sweet smelling oil that feels soft in the nostrils. Not menthol but something else, and it's very exotic. Now I can tell it's sandalwood. The first pinch did remind me of a 'Viking' it was strong burley and natural. After you pick up the sandalwood, I'm not sure where it takes me, but my heart says the shores of Hawaii or Fiji, There is so much snuff in here I'm not sure I'll ever run out. Enough to weather any storm, certainly enough to outlast WW3.

Menthol man here. I appreciate this snuff for its simplicity and good nicotine hit. Basic but good stuff.

Definitely one of my favorites. The smells really begin to open up fully when decanted and allowed to air out for a couple of minutes for the first handful of pinches. You unlock the wonderfully sweet, fermented smell of the tobaccos. Smooth and fluffy with a nice nicotine rush that lasts around 10-15 minutes. Be prepared to get messy with a noticeable front drip so I find it best used as an all day snuff on your days off from work.

Super dark(duh),quite moist & fluffy, easy to take for me, substantial burn but not terrible as to scare off newbs. Nicotine isn't easy to discern in snuff unless it's dripping with vitamin N or non existent.
This has PLENTY of N.

The only Viking I've had is Thor's Hammer and this. If I could only have one i'd pick Thor's Hammer.

P.S. The Samuel Gawith vacuum sealed tins Viking comes in are the best in the industry.
I ordered a 100 gran value tub, it isn't threaded and doesn't seal very well .

Of the three Viking snuffs I've had so far, this is my favorite. Nice grind and plenty moist. I mistook the initial burn for a hint of menthol, but I'm pretty sure there isn't any in there. Just a quality snuff for quality enjoyment!

Absolutely amazing snuff, great scent , packed with as much nicotine as you could want.

Coarse and moist. I grew up in Kentucky. They’d smoke the tobacco in the barns every fall. This brings me back. This is Marlboro Reds. Camel Wide unfiltered. Copenhagen Straight. I just wish the smell lasted longer, but it’s a whole experience. I want to repeat it often. A good all day/workin man’s snuff. Nothing soft or delicate here, just bold tobacco in your face. It’s delicious, but like a fat steak.

The best.

It's hard to imagine a more perfect snuff. It is rich, moist, earthy. Viking dark is adult stuff, sophisticated, and always interesting. The grind is perfect, just enough burn but doesn't fall out once it's in there. It suits my snuffing style. The moisture is just right. There is a fascinating creosote note deep in there somewhere. In my morning ritual, I get all my preparation done to go to work, sit in my comfy Amish chair and savor that first hit, close my eyes, and enjoy the significant rush of nicotene. Then I'm at it all day, about every 15 minutes. Good for the beginner and old pro alike. Can't get enough, and nothing else I've tried beats it.

IHAVE RECENTLY RETURNED TO THE WORLD OF SNUFF. i ORDERED MY FAVS AND SOME VIKING DARK. i LOVE IT. sMOOTH AND GENTLE. I FIND THE GRIND PERFECT. fOR A CHANGE MIX A BIT OF MACS O&G in it. I rate it a PERFECT

A little harder to take than Brown or Thor's Hammer, but otherwise very similar. More of a medium nicotine than Viking Brown, but close to the same. Flavor / aroma is kind of bland overall, although it does have some earthy, barnyard charm. Might by another tin to give it a 2nd shot, but will probably end up using it as a blending base augmented with something stronger like Dholakia's Super Strong Toast. A bit drippy at first, but calms down and rather easy to remove.

Purchased this along with a variety of other snuffs to kick the smoking habit completely. I had some snuff which was running low and read other reviews that said this would do the trick. It did so far. Out of the box smell told me, "grandfather's village in Eastern Europe". Very natural. Also, if you have ever smelled a pack of cigarettes, this is what the pack should probably smell like if it didn't have all the other added chemicals. Packed quite a burn in the beginning but nothing to call the Dr. about! Faint hints of smoke, grass.

I've been dwelling on the difference between Viking Brown vs Dark for a month or two, and actually passed it around to family and friends to get their opinion. Think I've finally nailed it down, Brown has more of a crisp smoke woodsy flavor and not as sweet, while Dark has a more flat smoke, but has a sweeter fig in it. Viking brown also has a tad finer grind and a tad less moisture in it, however is just as easy to take. Nicotine and the PH burn are the same, however I prefer the Brown to the Dark due to the grind, moisture, and the overall sharper flavor, however they are very similar, and I'd recommend both. Solid 5/5

very good value in these tubs-- not the clear tubes shown in the picture, but a more stout, short, white tub with good threads. kept the snuff quite acceptably fresh. This is good, plain, tobacco snuff. smells earthy, leathery, slightly smokey, and generally fantastic, if a bit short lived. Quite moist, and fairly coarse, but very easy to take. no horrible throat drip for me here. Nicotine is strong, but to me, nothing outrageous. Seems a little bit less smokey than the tinned dark I tried, but for the price really nothing compares.

Very nice texture: finely ground, moist. Pungent aroma; it reminds me of shoe polish, but I mean that as a compliment. Nice nicotine punch.

I ordered this snuff as it was highly recommended on nearly every forum I've been on. As a smoker trying to quit, it delivers a good dose of nicotine and has kept me from smoking quite easily. The grind is a bit more course than the rest in my inventory. Much easier to snuff for me being quite new snuffing. Good beginner snuff. I love the plain tobacco scent. It's a good break from the more fragrant snuffs that I have when I just want a good pinch without all the aroma.

A very good snuff. It's just pure tobacco. I get walnuts and smoke. It has a good nicotine hit, makes the inside of your nose throb. It's not the absolute best plain snuff I've ever had but it is very good. If you like plain snuffs, this is definitely one to order.

Viking Dark is simply marvelous. This is a plain tobacco snuff, a bit smokey and leathery. I would describe it as being like a more subdued version of Samuel Gawith KB. The grind is similar to KB as well, medium coarse and fairly moist. The nicotine content is thoroughly satisfying, and I love taking it immediately after waking up for this reason. It makes for a great all-day snuff as well. I get bored with it. It doesn't clog me up or cause my nose to run. I find it to be very easy to take.

If you're looking for a great plain snuff you can use all the time, try this immediately. You won't regret it.

P.S. - I love that it comes in a vacuum packed tin. I wish more manufacturers would package their snuffs in tins of this sort. They're difficult to open initially, but the snuff is always fresh and stays fresher longer even after opening. Whoever makes this (I suspect SG), kudos.

Many snuffers out there are in a constant search for the perfect all-day snuff, and this may very well be mine. No frills. No fancy packaging (in fact, the tin is sometimes pretty tough to get open). No floral or perfume scents. Just straight up, dark, tasty, tasty tobacco flavor. In the nicotine department, Viking Dark is no slouch. It's more course than many of the snuffs in my arsenal, and it's pretty moist, so I'd say this is a GREAT snuff for a beginner. The sexy recommendation for those trying to ditch cigarettes for snuff is Toque Quit simply for nicotine content, but Viking Dark delivers the nicotine and flavor I was missing to make the transition complete. So if you're a first-time orderer, add this to your cart.

This is my favorite by far. Easy on the nose with a nice light smokey, yet full tobacco flavor from the dark fired tobacco it is made from. I came back to snuff after a 25 year break and purchased 4 25 gram assorted tins and the only one I could really call an all day snuff was this. I ran out and am waiting on my next shipment,(this will never happen again) but none of the other snuffs in my collection are able to satisfy me like Viking Dark. I would highly recommend this to anyone who wants a pure tobacco experience.

This is a quality snuff,moisture level medium, grind also medium,easy to take all day. Recommended for beginners.Dark in color well aged tobacco with a very light tonquin bean scent and a smoky hint of latakia but definitely Virginian with the open tin scent of hay.

For a plain scented tobacco this delivers satisfaction. I like it and is one of my go to snuffs.Get some for your collection
