I don't know any other way to describe this. Walk into a hay barn on a cold winter morning. Pick up a bail that's been laying on the ground all summer and I to winter. That smell. The fermented earthy scent of aged straw. Then add a splash of cold crisp menthol. Definitely a reorder. Will keep this one in stock in my collection.
If you enjoy aniseed/licorice flavors you may enjoy this. If you enjoy aniseed/licorice, and medicated snuff then you'll be over the moon with this offering from WoS. This snuff is medium brown, with medium moisture which allows for easy insufflation. The up front scent is heavily medicated, but quickly fades into a wonderful anise scent which lingers for an enjoyable amount of time. If you aren't one for the medicated snuff then try Ani Plus which is the same scent without any of the "extra" baggage.
Ani Extra is an agreeable snuff, which starts with an initial eucalyptus burn that is followed by a gentle easing into a greasy tobacco and black licorice mix. It is a soothing evening snuff, quite enjoyable after winding down a long and arduous day. Ani Extra calls to mind licorice pipes and Vicks Vaporub, eliciting happy childhood memories of staying home from school, sick, with a contrived case of the sniffles.
Not sure I agree with the menthol reviews, is there any present? Slighly eucaliptus, but I am fairly certain that this must be due to the strength of the anise. Very much similar to arack. Not so long lasting in the nose, nice burn and great opening quality, but too much flavor for all day snuffing in my opinion. Much prefer the G&H anise, perhaps a blend of both would improve the weak anise flavor and dry flour of the G&H, and mellow out the strength of this moist, medium grind?
This is my daily snuff. I snurf it daily. Nice flavour. Nice tobaccoo. Awesome nic. hit. + this was my 1st snuff. It's awesome.
