I like mentholated/medicated snuffs and I like to purchase 2-3 different ones with every order. I decided to hit up some of the various McChrystals offerings on my most recent order including two of their mentholated/medicated snuffs. I saw this one entitled JIP medicated snuff, it sounded good so I purchased it. When I got my order and decided to try it, it was obvious that the menthol was permeating out of the tin as I was unwrapping the plastic. I took the top off took a whiff and boom. Now, this stuff is called JIP, but in no way do you get jipped with this one, know what I mean. It’s a light brown snuff, fine to under medium grind, and blow your head off menthol. The “medicated” part of this snuff is insane. I fell in love with this stuff on my first pinch. It has a good nic kick probably from the “driving” effect of the menthol. After the menthol vapors dissipate to just a cold feeling as the tobacco comes into effect. The taste, or aroma should I say, is a suttle SP like which comes into full play as the coolness lingers. I love this snuff and it is an addition to my menthol/medicated top 5. A medicated masterpiece by McChrystals.
