Bernard - Original Schmalzlerfranzl

Bernard Original Schmalzlerfranzl is an Austrian-made traditional Bavarian schmalzler featuring double-fermented Brazilian tobacco. The coarse grind carries substantial moisture that stays non-clumping, making it surprisingly easy to take despite its dark, robust character.

Expect complex dried fruit notes — fig, dates, and raisins — anchored by molasses and brown sugar sweetness. The heavily fermented tobacco base adds woody, nutty undertones with the characteristic vinegar tang of authentic schmalzler. Subtle chocolate and spice notes round out the profile. Medium nicotine strength delivers a satisfying hit with smooth, warming burn.

The moist texture creates noticeable drip, extending the sweet fruit flavours well into the finish. Better suited for home use due to its messy nature. Appeals to both newcomers wanting an approachable traditional snuff and experienced users seeking classic Bavarian character.
