The way I heard it, this snuff was originally made for a Harrod’s department store “Chocolate Festival” as a one-time custom item. Enough snuffers kept asking for it that Gawith added it to regular production thereafter. That’s the story, anyway.

Gawith Chocolate is dark brown, medium grind, and medium moisture. Its chocolate-liqueur aroma, similar to Godiva, is noticeable long before the snuff approaches one’s nose— even in a well-fitted snuffbox in my pocket, I can smell that it’s there.

One would think that a snuff designed as a novelty item for chocolate-lovers would be sissified, but this is not the case. It’s a serious snuff, with good nicotine content and a fairly strong burn.

This snuff offers some subtle complexities— there are times when I’m certain that I detect a note of coffee lurking in the background, and other times I’m equally certain that there is no such thing. The hints of vanilla I’m more convinced of , but then the chocolate itself would be responsible for that. The tobacco is undetectable except through the nicotine effects.

A good all-day snuff, even though the flavor lingers a little longer than I would like— not overwhelmingly, though, like floral snuffs will sometimes do. It’s quite easy on the nose and blows out fairly cleanly.

It's very very good snuff. I feel the chocolate, but it isn't sweet so if you look for something like SG Apricot or Gawith Cola, you will be disapointed...

There is also that specific aroma which is in all Samuel Gawith Snuffs. Some may by disgusted of it, but I thing it isn't so bad ;)

I ordered the chocolate and I have to say it's lovely. The chocolate scent is not very strong, which makes it an long enjoyable snuff. As Andy mentioned in his initial comment, it reminds a little of coffee. Maybe it's only a scent of roasted cacao, I don't know. One of my favourites, I must admit. Thanks Andy for the great hint!
