J & H Wilsons SP No1 5g
J & H Wilsons SP No1 5g
J & H Wilson S.P. No.1 is an English tradition that dates back to the 17th century. The particular aroma and taste of fermented tobaccos created by this fine mixture is unparalleled. The moist earth bouquet combines with a slightly pungent citrus flavor to create an original English snuff. The grind is medium fine, the moisture is medium, the nose feel is very mild and the stimulation of endorphins is quite real. A very refined and inspired snuff.
Available in a variety of convenient container sizes.
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.
