Samuel Gawith - Fire Dance
A sweet, berry-forward snuff with hints of vanilla and brandy. The fruity aroma is pronounced but lacks depth, leaning toward artificiality. Medium nicotine and a dry texture make it accessible, though it may not satisfy those seeking complexity.

Honestly I’ve had my ups and downs with this one. The presence of a smoky, leathery mist hangs in the background upon first impressions. Afterwards the berries come in and compliment the tobacco nicely. The drip for some reason on this one is always noticeable. I enjoy this blend occasionally but for me it’s not an everyday.
I'm not a fan of sweet stuff in general so really didn't enjoy this one. But I will say the moisture content is great and the scent lingers for quite a while. If sweet/fruity snuff is your thing then this would be a good choice, just not my thing. Thanks Mr Snuff!
The color is dark, The grind is medium-fine, holds moisture well. I believe the grind is a bit finer than some of the Bernard snuffs I've tried. The first tin notes are very strong of an extremely well balanced sweetness and smokiness that stays around for quite some time after a few pinches. The nicotine is present and adequate. Just an exquisite light berry/cherry aroma in the fermentation combined with a very slight peaty/woodsy/ashy smoke and I think there might be vanilla in here. This is exceptional - a must buy.
This is the snuff that Wilsons of Sharrow Beltane wishes it could be. Fresh out of the tin, Firedance gives off lovely blackberry, blackcurrant, vanilla, brandy, and woodsmoke aromas. Once it hits the front of the nose, it is easy to detect gorgeously balanced impressions of blackberry, blackcurrant, vanilla, and brandy layered over more delicate notes of charcoal, earth, cocoa, leather, woodsmoke, peat, ash, cinnamon, and nutmeg. The snuff is of a medium-coarse grind and medium or slightly higher moisture. Nicotine content is moderately robust. It packs a sneaky punch, sits in the nose very well, and offers delightful long-lasting aromas. Honestly, it would be hard to ask for more in a dessert snuff. I recommend it highly.
