So good

A bit strong for me compared to other, but as a pipe smoker and lover of English blends, the smokiness of the latakia is heaven to my nose.

English Pipe Tobacco in Snuff Format

If you are a pipe smoker and like Latakia, you'll love this snuff. If not, avoid! If you've never had Latakia, it's something special for sure, but has the tendency to overtake everything else in the blend. It's what is used in English pipe blends. The closest I can compare it to snuff wise is a scotch, but the smoke character is entirely different. Even though it is mixed with Lemon Virginia, it is hardly noticeable as the Latakia dominates. At first taking it by itself it was a bit too much and I wasn't enjoying it, but it takes a bit to acclimate to Lat blends. I find it best as a mixer in small-medium amounts. It can really boost some snuffs into a unique territory. There are few nasal snuffs that use Latakia, there may have been an Old Mill or Molens that used it but I forget. I've found it mixes amazingly with Gawith Hoggarth's Cafe Regal, and also mixes nice with Irish #22 or High Dry Toast. Give it a shot, this is a unique snuff for sure!

Smokey Powerhouse

I'm a fan of English blended pipe tobacco, but was hesitant to try a Latakia snuff. I'm glad I took the leap of faith. SWS has the finest handcrafted snuffs in the business. True Old World craftsmanship. This is finely ground powdered snuff, reminiscent of toasted scotch snuffs. Definitely not a newbie snuff, or those just dabbling, it takes a certain control to enjoy this powder. There is a fantastic burn that fills the nostrils with a campfire scent. Great with a cup of coffee, or early in the morning on a cold autumn or winter's day, this will surely wake you up in the morn. I think this is SWS's strongest offering. It does give a mighty wallop of beloved Vitamin N. It's not complex, but is a bold smoky powerhouse straight to the dome. For snuffers who like strong, plain straight up tobacco, this Latakia takes it up a notch.

You already know !

Smokey as f_-k . I take 3 or 4 pinches a time and when I break a sweat I'm happy.

They were out of the small tins and I got the what seems like a bucket load . My nose reassured me " I got this".
Trying to find a Sir Walter Scott's product I don't like!

Latakia bomb

I recently bought some SWS series. I could quickly compare to the Rapee, Havana toast , Golden Horn and others, but honestly this is the best snuff from SWS. Of course,only if you very like Latakia and tobacco taste. No menthol or other plants here. If you are a pipe smoker, and you usually enjoy MacBaren Latakia , this is a 5 star for sure.
