Now this is a lovely traditional SP style snuff, as one would expect from the name. It is moderately fine in grind but moist enough to avoid being overly sneezy. The colour is somewhat paler than Wilson\'s other SP snuffs so I suspect a different tobacco base. The flavour is quite distinctive, being rather plainer than most SPs, but what flavour it has is decidedly of bergamot rather than a more generic citrus. In many ways it is like a toned down version of Wilson\'s S.S., though that snuff is somewhat darker in colour. The small tin I bought was delightfully fresh, needing an hour or so of airing to reduce the natural ammonia which is normal in a very fresh snuff. That small tin is emptying rather quickly! This is one I\'ll be getting again.
