Re: GWAYI TAXI vs. UGWAYI NTSU

Both are very course grind, almost akin to an American oral snuff. 
Both are very mild in terms MOAHR, almost no noticeable effect in 
that department except for NTSU which has a pronounced Ammonia 
content that keeps the snuff very moist and enhances the nicotine 
delivery. Both are strong in terms of nicotine content. As far a 
scent or flavor, Taxi reminds me slightly of Kendal Brown. NTSU 
reminds me of a very mild American Copenhagen which is an oral snuff 
(mainly due to what I detect as high ammonia content.  In my 
opinion there is a noticeable difference between the Taxi sold at 
Estate pipes.De and Westley's.  The containers are different and the 
snuff from south Africa seems more moist and flavorful. Both NTSU 
and Taxi from South Africa come in the same containers except the 
NTSU has a handy tab that makes prying off the lid more convenient.  
The containers keep the snuff air tight, moist and are 
convenient snuff boxes, not to large to carry. The Taxi container 
from EstatePipes is not as well constructed and the lid is 
not as tight as those from Wesley's.

Of the Medicated Taxi vs the NTSU, Taxi has a strong Pine-sol type 
odor while the NTSU is a mild straight menthol.  Both are equally 
fresh and strong tobaccos which are mild to the nose.

The snuffs are very inexpensive when purchased from Wesley's but the 
shipping is expensive. Even with shipping the cost is probably less 
than you would pay locally for any English snuff either in England 
or America. The initial shipping chart shows an amount higher than 
actual. The proprietor at Wesley's will send an updated shipping 
charge before your purchase is final.

If you wish to try either one, I would suggest trying both and also

Re: GWAYI TAXI vs. UGWAYI NTSU

Howdy!

So far I've only tried NTSU Menthol.

The only reason I started with NTSU is because I 
could buy it on the spot without having to get
a price qoite on it.

Whatever you choose, you can't go wrong for the price!

MOF: I think that NTSU is one of the best medicated
snuffs that I've ever tried. A close second to President
(coming from me, that's an OUTSTANDING review.)
