After over 2 months with this one, I have to agree with other reviewers. I'm giving it two stars -- one for, well, just being snuff. The other for the nicotine content, which is fine.
But when it comes to the scent, this doesn't get anywhere near rum, in my opinion. It has two primary scents that I can detect -- a mix of wood, earth, and coumarin.
The other is baby powder. Don't know how else to describe it. And when it's still relatively fresh after opening, that ammonia tang only amplifies the other flavors, such that, well...
They should have named it, "Shot Of Barnyard Baby Diaper."
So far my experience with the FUBAR line of snuffs (RnR and Shot of Rum) has been strange. They are not comprised of scents that I really expect from a snuff. The grind on this snuff is finer and drier than the RnR, making it a bit harder to take without paying some attention. The scent is, well...pungent is the best word that comes to mind. There also seems to be the smell of...umm...something that would be inappropriate to point out on this website. If you read around about a very distinctive odor that was in the original FUBAR grunt (not the coconut), my nose says it is in this one too.
It's a very strange snuff in my opinion. I don't think i would reorder it, but trying it out has definitely been an interesting experience. If you want to try it, get a 10g before you commit to the tub.
Agree that this is one to leave behind. I did the whole container, but it lasted a long time because it was almost the least-favorite. I still liked it OK, but I'd choose another one any time. It's the raisiny rum flavor; I guess if you like Haagen Dazs "Rum Raisin" ice cream (and also like snuff), you might like "Shot of Rum."
Grind: fine
Moisture: dry
Nicotine: medium to high
One word: YUCK. Not only does this not resemble rum (not any rum I've had, at least) but it manages to make me eject it from my nose within a couple minutes. I've given this one a fair chance and tried over a dozen pinches but it just doesn't do it for me. The flavoring is sickly sweet and overpowering. The nicotine is nice but this one is just not going to sit well with me. I'll seal it up and try it again in a few months.
