Sir Walter Scott The Navigator 15g
Sir Walter Scott The Navigator 15g
A popular choice among nasal snuff enthusiasts, this smokeless product offers a non-mentholated experience with earthy, sweet, and smoky notes. Made with a blend of Cavendish and Virginia tobacco, it has a medium grind and slightly moist texture for easy use. High in nicotine, perfect for intermediate users.
The Navigator evokes the comforting essence of a campfire, offering a smoky aroma without the sharp, pungent undertones typically associated with smoke. It brings to mind the scent of a charred marshmallow, minus the sweetness. The overall experience is incredibly pleasant, complemented by a satisfying kick!
When I first saw, The Navigator, my assumption was that it would carry scents of myrrh and sandalwood from far off ports to my eager nostrils. I was wrong. The Navigator seems placed to remind the navigator of home, and a rustic home at that. It smells like a hay loft. Not a hay loft with fresh cut hay. An old hay loft that’s been sitting for a while, where you lit up a pipe of pedestrian tobacco. It’s unremarkable if you’re looking for fruit, menthol, or even the “oiled leather” aroma of other snuffs. If you’re looking for something dependably comfortable - like an old hay loft - it’s delightful. The nicotine hit is above average, but still pleasant. There is a mild “burn,” and it is very fine, so don’t snort it in like a horse. I imagine this snuff is particularly pleasant on a crisp autumn day, if you’re out of doors. If you prefer tobacco-forward snuffs with homey aroma, and solid nicotine, this is worth a try. Do not expect an overflowing tin. It comes about half full.
