Wintergreen dip comparisons

[BradenL]

In light of the new skoal extra wintergreen coming out in the Chicago-land area, a wintergreen dip comparison review is in order!

The grading scale is 0-100, 0 being terrible and 100 being a great dip. Instead of arbitrarily assigning point values, I will start from 100 and subtract points for lacking attributes! The breakdown is as follows:
Chemical taste: Little (-0), medium (-5), heavy (-10)
Packing: Stays packed well (-0), Moderately breaks apart (-5), Mudslide (-10)
Sweetness: Overly sweet (-5), Sweet (-0), No sweetness (-5)
Aftertaste: Good (-0), Bad (-10)
Nicotine Content: Can’t feel it at all (-10), Low (-5), Moderate (-0), High (-0), Too high (-5)

I've only had Copenhagen Wintergreen so far and it's both tasty and stays packed well.... lasts longs and gives a decent buzz.

[BradenL]

Copenhagen wintergreen is one of the best. It's my personal favorite.

[MJ26]

Yeah, Copenhagen and Kodiak are the best ones. All low priced dips are either bad or average but haven't noticed much difference in taste. Red Man and Kayak are ok and cheap. Grizzly is the worst dip in all flavors ever.

Thank You BrandenL now I have a headache.

[BradenL]

Thank You BrandenL now I have a headache.

You're welcome.

[Experimental Monkey]

Hell yeah i gotta try some of that Kodiak. Nic content: too high. Lol.

About 6 months ago I took a pinch of kodiak after I smoked a cig and started having severe heart palpitations more than like you know chugging a few rockstars where my heart beat every fifth second then two times fast to the point I was concerned I'm 20 and fairly healthy.

How is skoal FC WG low nicotine? I haven't had it but I can't imagine any fine cut being weak the long cut is, I think it's not much stronger than their fruit dip. Also I wouldn't say grizzly has no sweetness is a reasonable assessment I guess compared to skoal which is like a wintergreen lifesaver it's though.

Skoal fine cut wintergreen just is really weak. I know it sounds crazy but I couldn't barely feel the nicotine even though I was dipping a substantial amount. It probably has to do with the lack of a high ph more than anything as that is what really facilitates nicotine uptake into the body.Kodiak has an uber-high ph which allows more nicotine to be taken into your body in a shorter amount of time..it actually has less nicotine per volume then skoal.

[myuserid]

Grizzly Wintergreen is the only wintergreen flavor I like.

[resnor]

Grizzly is actually my favorite dip. However, I don't ever feel a nicotine buzz when I dip...and I take substantial pinches. I actually, never really have felt a rush from the nicotine. Maybe I'm just broken.

[Snusify]

I love wintegreen and have tried most of them. My favourite wintergreen is grizzly long cut wintergreen.

I like TW cool wintergreen it is different cooling effect nice to have now and again.

Skoal edge is ok.

Copenhagen wintergreen is probably the best quality and good flavoured wintergreen dip but none of them come to the sheer rawness and hit of flavour that grizz green will give.

When it comes to snus the only wintergreen snus worth using is general wintergreen or jacobbsons wintergreen.

when your brain becomes accustomed to nicotine no tobacco will give you the rush like it did when you first started.
