    DIP REVIEW: Stoker's Long Cut Natural Moist Snuff

    I went to the tobacco store today, which is usually out of my way, as I was going that way, so I stopped in with the intention of just getting a 5-roll of Copenhagen Original Long Cut, which is my favorite dip. I then see on a shelf there, the tubs of Stoker's moist snuff dip. I asked if they had Natural Long Cut, and they did. The 5-roll of Copen was $16 something, and the tub of Stoker's was $11 something, and the Stoker's tub says it's equal to 10 cans.

    I'd never had the Stoker's dip. I did have some Stoker's chew before, and I was very impressed.
    So, I took a chance and got the tub of Stoker's Long Cut Natural, hoping I will like it.

    So, I have before me, an unopened tup of this, and will do an initial review of it.
    I'm now opening it up.
    OK, that was not easy, it has a sorta perforation around the lid, but it didn't want to separate there, so I ended up pulling a bit of the label off, but it's fine. Let's open the lid now...

    Well now.... has a little empty can to use, with a sticker on it. The dip itself looks nice and dark, and really smells great. Smell is way better than that Timber Wolf NLC I had been using. Kinda has a Copenish smell.

    Let's try it now. Hmmm.... the cut is very stringy long cut. Not as crazy as that WB chew, but kinda simiilar in a shorter way. This is really good. I'm glad I got this. It's salty, but not too much. The cut is very compfortable, super easy to pinch and pack. Has a similar essence as Copen Original, not quite, but still, this is very good, and has a very nice natural seasoned blended taste. This tub is rather big, about 6in tall, I don't have a ruler, maybe 5in across.

    Now I'm getting a nic effect, noticeable, kinda strong, whew... way stronger than that Tiber Wolf and Skoal X-tra, and Oden's EP, of course I have more than 1g in, maybe 3-4.

    Subsided a bit, and I switched sides. I haven't eaten anything today too, which may have an effect. Still feeling it.

    Overall, this is really good, with a good easy to use cut. Nice natrual blended taste, very noticeable nic hit, and a big bargain, making single cans at just over a dollar.

    I'd recommend this, if you like Natural dips. Not as good as Copen OLC, but what is, but a very good replacement or alternative.

    Picked up a tub of Wintergreen today. Trying now and I agree, it's good. A sweeter taste than Grizzly Wintergreen but softer.

    Defintely a great deal at a little over $11 for the tub. I'll try the Natural as well.

      I bought the LC last year.

      Great review Tom.

      I found the flavor to be excellent, but the cut was too stringy for me. I always dip in the shower and this stuff doesn't want to run down the drain.

      In my last order for snus I added the fine cut. They call it 'Finer' cut. It's not quite snuff, but it's not long cut. Same great taste and Stoker value. High quality.

      Did I mention I LOVE the Butternut Chew? It's uber tasty!!

        I have a tub of this. I believe I got it from Tom.
        it's pretty good. Not amazing, but good.

          baker - You're right, it is absolutely stringy. Much longer than a normal long cut.
