These are all new to my cellar. I don't need more tobacco, but I knew TAD would win once I read @JimInks reviews of the new MM limited blends. And then I was going to skip Sun Bear, but FOMO got the best of me.
You went straight for the big boy stuff with that Grizzly Wintergreen, it’s got some serious bite. That’s all I dipped for a long time but it’s a wee bit harsh on the gums. If you’re only going to get one, that’s a good one!Spent the last couple of weeks in the US and picked up a few thingsView attachment 235876
If you’re able to avail yourself of more American chewing tobacco, and you like the Grizzly, you might try Copenhagen Wintergreen. The wintergreen is still strong but it’s a bit sweeter, less bite, and it’s a longer cut that stays packed more easily.
And as for actual chew, I highly recommend original Red Man. It’s pure sweet raisiny flavor and it’s absolutely goddamn delicious.
Cheers!
I think this is my entire hall from the last two months or so? There's also a small tin of HH Virginia Flake I didn't feel like digging out. There's a few others, but that was just restocking favorites.
Can't wait to get to some of this. Need more time, but every time I knock one thing off the "honey do" list, two more things take its place.

@PipeIT Glad you like the Musketeer; I think you should try it in a clay pipe! A perfect tobacco for the Clay King!This one is for you @halfdan, I was excited to read what you had to say about Sillem’s Musketeer, so I ordered a tin.
I agree, nice tin art, thank goodness the warning is on the back.
Be well @halfdan

couple of Sun Bear Tupelo’s en route…
I just got this Amazonian Nicotina Rustica. Not sure what to do with it, but $15 for around 2lbs of rare jungle tobacco I couldn't pass it up. It seems to be wrapped up in some sort of tree bark.
Where did you get it from if you don't mind me asking
Okay what are you mixing that with? Does it taste tobacconesque? I have their peach, plum, mint and angostura but I’ve not seen this.
it's new. had to order online. tastes like candy. disappeared in club soda. put a fair bit into a martini and I can taste it, just not quite sure what it is i'm tasting, but i like it!
I bought it off an antiques collector/dealer who lives near me. He previously lived in South America and brought back all sorts of oddities from the region.
This may be similar if you’re in the market
