Not overpowering, good moisture. Strong menthol with not many other notes other than analogues. Some of the best packaging I've encountered. Pretty versatile, good for regular use.
Super M is one of the stronger mentholated snuffs in the Wilsons of Sharrow portfolio, and in my opinion, it is a winner. The snuff is of a medium grind and offers a moderate moisture content and relatively high nicotine and menthol levels. The menthol is front and center in the nose, though aromas of camphor and eucalyptus are also easy to detect. Hints of citrus and lavender lurk in the background alongside delicate earthy, chocolaty tones from the tobacco base. Great for clearing your sinuses. Just as great to take for the pleasure of it.
There are days in the Canadian Winter where it just does not stop…snowing. Days where you must start shovelling again before you had the time to take off your boots. Those days must be faced with saintly patience and good stimulants to see you through the…work. High in both menthol and nicotine, Super M. is the kick in the back of the pants you need on such snowy…days. With a small burn and no sneeze, this light brown snuff’s menthol flavour is embellished by eucalyptus, camphor, green citrus and nitrox oxide. Not for the faint of heart, Super M. will see you through the blizzard and carry you to your overstuffed couch once the shovelling is finally…done.
When I read citrus in a description of a nasal snuff, I automatically think "Bergamot" I could not have been more wrong. When opening the tin the menthol and lemon aroma swirls together intoxicatingly. First sniff, menthol punches resulting in cool, cold nostrils. Second sniff, menthol punch is less which allows the lemon and honey to breeze through. The scents bloom with the third sniff and it seems as though I have a "virgin" hot toddy in my nose. Lovely snuff to begin a cold morning with.
This is very similar to J&H Wilson's medicated no. 99 to my nose with a few differences: the menthol has been turned back a few notches, the lavender is stronger in the background (which however gives it a nice "soapy" finish) and the nicotine is not as strong. This is essentially a softer medicated no. 99 and is very pleasant. I really like this one and will certainly buy it again.
