Tasting notes

Xian Green (Osmanthus style) is built around an osmanthus scent with a secondary milk note, and the aroma is similar to floral tea. Osmanthus is a small East Asian flowering shrub, also called sweet or tea olive, used in China for tea, sweets and scented goods.

The base is green tobacco, meaning tobacco processed to keep a fresh character rather than the deeper, fermented notes found in darker snuffs. Menthol is medium menthol. Tasting notes are floral, sweet and herbal. It has medium moisture, and nicotine strength is medium-light.

What is Green Snuff? Click to read Tap to read Xian is a true green snuff: tobacco cured to keep the leaf's natural green, so the leaf keeps a grassy, herbal character.

Green snuff is tobacco cured to keep the leaf's natural green colour. Rather than the long, dark fermentation that turns most leaf brown and sweet, the leaf is dried and milled while close to its living state, often from candela leaf which holds a strong green through curing. The resulting powder keeps a grassy, herbal character.

The Xian range is our green snuff: a Chinese-made partially fermented base with elegant scent layers, from jasmine and osmanthus to baking bread and chocolate. The fine powder lets each scent come through cleanly on the green base.
