Samuel Gawith - Black Arabica

Tasting notes

Every report is read by a person before anything changes.

Shipping calculated at checkout.

Samuel Gawith Black Arabica is built around a coffee note, with earthy, leather and smoky secondary notes. The coffee is natural rather than artificial, similar to ground dark coffee beans or used coffee grounds. Molasses and burnt elements are also among the tasting notes.

The base is dark tobacco with fire-cured Virginia characteristics, and the tarmac and leather notes are typical of fermented dark tobaccos. It is a medium-moist snuff with a coarse grind, and the colour ranges from medium-dark to very dark brown. Nicotine strength is strong.

Dark and smokey.

I really enjoy this Kendal because the texture is more coarse than average and the moisture level is nice. Very easy to place and forgiving on the nose with a solid slow hit.

I find this flavor profile more roasted & smoke forward with subtle hints of coffee as the middle and bottom notes. It's dark, fired, smokey roasted goodness - deep and complex.

Good product, shipping is alright.

Like the title says the products I bought were all received and nothing was missing. The quality of the snuff was great. My only beef with Mr Snuff is how long it took to get to me in the states, I’m sure it isn’t there fault fully but if you do make a purchase from here be aware it could take 3-4 weeks to arrive.

It is so good!

I love Black Arabica! Not an all day for me (well, most days, anyway) but a major player in my rotation.

Great service

I don't know what to say here aside from that everything arrived as it should and there were zero problems.

Perfect as described

Exactly as described, there’s not much more to add. If you enjoy coffee and dark tobacco scents this is basically gold standard, it’s brilliant with plum, dark berry, but the primary note is coffee, and it is so spot on, I’d be a fool not to recommend this so highly. This is one of my favorites, it’s a beautiful compliment to your morning coffee. Just be aware it is a very coarse grind so practice that nostril pinch.

Good quality, flavour not for me

Great quality snuff and my first samuel gawith product. When I initially opened the tin I found the flavour quite strong, but as I have let the tin sit the flavour is much more manageable.

Awesome service great variety

I live in Wyoming hard to get products to the state's. But love me sum snuff, running out of products that still give me a head change. Lol

Received different container than advertised

As stated in title, I received a different style and color package than shown on the listing.
Not sure if that means a different product, but this is a solid 1/5 stars for me.
Smelled the container when I opened it, and gave off the aroma of spoiled oil. No hints of coffee, toffee, nothing. First try and it was even worse and more apparent of a gross motor oil smell that filled my nose.
I hope I just got a bad one, as I was really looking forward to this product.

Great!

I couldn’t really get the coffee, but it has an intense and wonderful tobacco flavor that I greatly enjoyed. Not much sting (some, but I’m new to snuff), but excellent smell/flavor.

Intense

intense flavor slightly reminiscent of coffee. If you are used to schmalzer type snuff you will love it. Intense, deep and long-lasting flavour, it does not sting in the nose nor is it abrasive. It's so worth it

Great

I'm new to snuff. I think this is great,.. I don't know enough to articulate why. . But this will be what I measure anything else I try against. It's... familiar, and subtle, I love it

Bandaids and rubber

This you have to tap out very slowly the first time I nearly dumped the whole box out but I got the smell of a skinned knee with bandaids and a bunch of little pieces of rubber half burnt but I must say this gets 4 stars just because the nicotine is decent the flavor though isn’t unpleasant just strange

Smells like dip

The first impression I got from this snuff was that it smells like copenhagen dip. After a minute I was able to pick out some of the coffee flavour to it. Definelty has tobacco as the main flavour profile though. Has a course grind and more moisture than most English snuffs, also packs a real nic hit to it, which I wasn't expecting.

Gentleman's coffee nic hit

When I first tried it I was a bit disappointed because I expected a coffee taste... thankfully I heard that one has to acclimate to a new experience of this sort. So it turns out my snorting unit was not accustomed to such fineries. Only after a week I started getting a very nice subtle coffee vybe with its exquisite black pipe tobacco taste. There is also a proper technique one must utilize to enjoy this medium coarse ground and medium moist tobacco product if one wants to experience the full niceness that it brings to the nasal cavity and beyond. Id say it has quite a nice nic hit, medium to strong, with a proper burn, especially when one takes a larger bump, or few. Makes me feel like I'm strolling down a cobblestone street looking for a pub and a pint of fermented hop juice.

Ring-a-ding, baby!

This stuff is serious business. The coffee flavoring synergizes with and amplifies the tobacco in a way that puts the "flavor" here completely over the top, and the nicotine delivery falls right in line with that over the top ideal. This one might not be such a good choice for snuff newcomers, on account of that, but for a nose properly seasoned to receive, this delivers in full.

I'd describe the flavor as 'dark roast meets pipe tobacco'. I know there are some who dislike tap boxes, and I'd want this in the tin as well -- at home -- but, out and about, a 10g tap box of this is practically a requirement for Yours Truly.

Best of the best

This is my all time fav must have snuffs that I carry ALL THE TIME. It’s very reminiscent of a deep coffee espresso like black coffee. Very large grind with a great nick buz and kick. Great throat drip. Love this product . If you like to smoke a pipe this is the snuff for you

Nice.

Really fine snuff. The scent reminds me of the way Copenhagen smells. Which isn’t attractive to me at all. However, in the nose it’s ground coffee beans of the cheap variety, in a good way of course. At first I had to work to get the scent of coffee but with more use it’s obvious. I really enjoy the coffee scent which linger a long time. It reminds me of blu ecig tobacco flavor from ten years ago. This might not be a good comparison but It’s such a good scent. Reminiscent of sweet buttered popcorn. Anyhow, the scent is coffee light tobacco, fig.

Black Coffee

This more complex than just black coffee. I get campfire and leather along with dark rich tobacco as well. Great nicotine burn at first, but the drip can irritate your throat. That said, this is a great all day snuff. I love this in the morning with coffee. The tin aroma is amazing and gets better with age. Some brands smell great when you first open them, but then dwindle away. The grind is course (nothing like McChrystal's) and is moist. I'd say the nicotine level is medium-high. Too many bumps and you'll feel off. Pace yourself and enjoy this rich, non-menthol snuff. Love it

Great Stuff

As a coffee drinker that likes it fresh ground without milk or sugar this is the same thing in snuff form. A quality dark coffee I can sniff all day. It's moist and coarse snuff much like the coffee it represents, I recommend this to all coffee lovers who sniff, you won't be disappointed.

This snuff is amazing. For all the coffee drinkers i would highly recommend this. It is everything i expected, its great quality tobacco, very moist very course and doesn't burn as bad as other snuffs. Its sort of a burnt coffee smell which might sound un appealing but is actually very pleasant. The scent sticks around for a good amount of time too. If you take a big enough pinch you will smell the coffee for almost 30 min to 45min. Buy this its excellent.

I'm a beginner and this was my first scented snuff. What a reward! I'm a fan of aromatic pipe tobacco blends and Samuel Gawith's Black Coffee Snuff is perfect for those times when I can't light up a bowl. Very smooth and great coffee scent that stays in the nose for awhile. Great moisture balance too. What a pleasure!

Well Samuel Gawith got me again,I am a big fan of their pipe tobacco, And their snuff offerings' had not disappointed me yet. This black coffee is great deep dark tobacco base with just the right amount of moisture. A fine grind that says in the nose and a delightful lite scent of black coffee.
Now if they could make this in a pipe blend if only.

I wouldn't call this a dessert snuff; it is good for an all day staple just fill your snuff box and go.I say it is medium in the nicotine department so it satisfying .Although I have a hard time staying away too long it so good. The Black Coffee is very nose friendly ,A beginner should have no trouble with it .Five plus stars for this fine snuff and a great value.This one sells out quickly so get some.

Samuel Gawith Black Arabica 10g

First time snuff user. This is quite tasty, good with a cup of coffee. Not the one I use most but I find a time for it every day. It seems to have a hint of "mintiness" but generally the flavor is dark and pleasant. It's soft, a little powdery, and pours easily (careful not to dump too much on your hand!)

I just opened this one from my last order. Oh My God!!! This one is wonderful!!

I love Samuel Gawith Black Rapee and Black Coffee seems to have the same tobacco as a base with a finer grind that I wish Black Rapee had. It is less smokey and adds a great coffee flavor. I wish I had opened this over a week ago when I received the order.

I had tried toque espresso and WOS coffee and cream this is the best coffee flavor of the bunch for me and a wonderful tobacco.
