I had big hopes for this one...with a name like Alpina and a deep green container, I dreamed of a snuff that would give the impression of standing in the mountains and breathing in a cool, frosty pine smell in the early morning. What I got was a typical Poschl snuff with too much menthol, seemingly added by the menthol mad scientist at the factory, with a fake fruity smell. I can't complain too much, as I received a free 10 gram dispenser from the company just for inquiring about it, but I did expect more. Its not available in the US, either, so I will not be ordering this again. Too much menthol, and way too many sweet, strange flavors.
Edit: I may have been a bit critical of this one, and a revisit of it has yielded much better results. I stand by my "too much menthol, and fake sweet smell" comment, but increase it from two to three stars!

One of the ideal beginner´s snuffs. Fancied it, when I started with snuff. But, oh woe, as soon as you discover there´s a world outside of Pöschl-country... this one looses drastically. You practically can´t make any mistakes while snuffing this one, the grind and moisture are just perfect for beginners, but of course, with such a fluffy grind, you don´t get too much of good old uncle nicotine.
The flavour´s not too artificial, veeeery fruity and wood-like. My guess is, they just put every SWEET berry and fruit that grow in woods into this one. Sadly, this over the top sweetness is too much to stand in the long run. But if you´ve got a whole set of sweet teeth, are a lady or.... dandy, you can´t go wrong with this candy like snuff.

Distinctively Pöschl. I did not find found the menthol overpowering and I believe it is a great complement to the notable berry sweetness of this snuff. The tobacco burn is little to none, but the menthol kick is sound. Easy to take. It is one of my favorites from Pöschl. It may be recommendable to who enjoy Packard's Club, if more fruitiness could be welcomed. For me, Alpina is a casual snuff, whereas Packard's Club could easily be an all day snuff.

O.K. So another subtle variation on the menthol sweets. Another fantastic tricked out dispenser. May be the best container yet. But the snuff misses the mark for pine forest scent by just a hair. A little more pine scent in there would make it a little more distict from the rest of the gang O' menths. Not bad though. I would take any one of the Poschl menthols over no menthols at all. But I do have my favorites. This may be one of them! It's very sweet.

Now this is a kicker!
A bit like Ozona Raspberry but with less raspberry taste and a wild forest fruite menthol taste.
Just fantastic.

One of my top 5 Poschl snuffs. Has a nice dark sweetness to it that is very agreeable to the nose. Tends to clog after a few minutes though. Its a medium/medium snuff kept in an attractive & functional container.

one of my favourite poeschl snuffs.
it come in a nice dark green container with a very functiona slide lid on it.
medium grind, medium moisture.
the menthol is not as pronounced as in most other poeschls. it is scented with sweet dark berry-aroma, which i finf very agreeable. also it does not clog me up like most other sweet snuffs but tends to clear my nose. it can get a bit runny if used heavily.
