I have been using chewing tobacco for many years now and throughout my experiences I have encountered many different brands, flavors, textures and styles of chewing tobacco. Copenhagen is the oldest brand of chewing tobacco and the long cut texture is very popular with chewing tobacco consumers.
Copenhagen Long Cut Flavor
Copenhagen long cut offers a flavor truly close to that of the original tobacco. It is a truly unique flavor available only from the Copenhagen brand. I would describe the flavor as a musty flavor. If you have never tried a Copenhagen chewing tobacco, then you will be pleasantly surprised. I enjoy this flavor very much and it holds throughout the chew better than any other chewing tobacco that I’m aware of.
Copenhagen Long Cut Texture
Copenhagen long cut tobacco is not cut as long as most other long cut tobaccos are. The cut is longer than fine cut but not as long as the Skoal long cut tobacco is. The Copenhagen long cut texture is another unique quality of the brand. It is not at all gummy and in fact I would say it is the least gummy textured chewing tobacco on the market. This is not to say that it is dry, in fact it is quite moist.
Copenhagen Long Cut Pro’s
Copenhagen long cut has many good points. First of all the flavor is truly unique to the brand, and the flavor stays strong throughout the chew and covers the pallet nicely. The can is yet another of the unique qualities about Copenhagen tobaccos, it is not made from plastic like most other brands. The can is made from a paper product, which keeps the humidity of the tobacco high while it is resting in the warmth of your pocket. Many consumers believe that Copenhagen is easier on the gum and lip than most chewing tobaccos are.
There are few cons I will mention about Copenhagen long cut. First, the price of Copenhagen is higher than most other brands because it is of very high quality. Second, the seal on the can is not very tight which can allow the tobacco to go stale more quickly than other brands. Lastly, the tobacco has a tendency to float around the mouth during the chew.
Is Copenhagen Long Cut Recommended?
I would recommend Copenhagen long cut chew to a consumer who wants to experience a truly unique tobacco. There is in my opinion no other brand of chewing tobacco that offers an experience that is at all like that of Copenhagen long cut.
