McChrystals Highland Ice Coarse Snuff 8g
A coarse version of the much loved highland ice is now available and will be sure to tingle your senses. The same cool and refreshing flavor with a stronger pinch
This flavor gives you the feeling of being refreshed and invigorated in the cool open air. Many customers have contacted us to say how stimulating this snuff is! A great compliment.
As a noob, I ordered several that seemed to be "standards" and I see why this is one of them. After having only had US Scotch Snuf, this was almost magical. Such a great head feel and aroma. Wonderful snuff.
Not overpowering while clearing your sinuses well at the same time. Eucalyptus heavy with the nice sensation from camphor. Would get a bigger tin next time. Delicious
One pinch will definitely clear your sinuses and leave a nice icy cooling effect for a good while! Excellent for outdoors
Highland Ice is unique among the McChrystal's range of medicated/mentholated snuffs in that camphor and eucalyptus are the dominant notes, with the mentholation being very light in comparison. Once it hits the front of the nose, it delivers an icy, soothing blast of camphor and eucalyptus with more distant menthol tones. Contributions from the base tobacco(s) are less noticeable, mostly amounting to the expected mix of earth, wood, toffee, biscuit, cocoa, and citrus impressions. The grind is mediumish, perhaps a hair coarser than many of the other McChrystal's snuffs. Moisture content is medium. The snuff sits in the nose well. Nicotine content is more or less medium. While I usually prefer a stronger nicotine presence in snuffs of this style, this was a very pleasant snuff that was almost too easy to take. It made for a wonderful change from the strongly mentholated snuffs I regularly take. I will definitely be purchasing more of this in the future.
If you want a snuff to open you sinuses while bringing a very enjoyable burn, this is the one. The menthol, etc., is prominent but doesn't over power the tobacco. Next time I won't accidentally buy the mini . . . .
