This is by far the best snuff for a cold and opens up the sinuses and it won't singe your nose hairs off like other menthol and/or mint flavored snuffs such as Crumbs of Comfort. The tobacco is ground very fine and will go straight to the back of your throat very easily. Moisture level is medium and the nic hit is acceptable. The taste, oh the taste. It is like a, hold on a minute I need to sniff some right now, a very mild menthol with a earthy bottom note that rounds out the snuff. Blowing out is also not unpleasant, it brings the flavor out for a limited time. I have yet to experience any throat drip or drip coming out the nose. A good 4/5 snuff. Hope this helps as this is my first review.
