Jake’s Mint Chew – Cranberry

Jake's Cranberry Single CanAs I said in a recent post, Jake’s Mint Chew has recently introduced a new Cranberry flavor of their product.  Honestly I was a bit worried about this flavor as I’m not a huge fan of “flavored” chews, and my love for cranberry is limited to my once-a-year dip into the Thanksgiving cranberry jelly that comes out of a can in a big lump.

Now that I’ve got my cranberry credentials covered… onward.

This is a pretty good chew.  The look, feel and texture of this flavor is identical to the other Jake’s Mint Chew products I’ve reviewed.  The flavor here is understated which to me is a very good thing.  Getting smacked in the face (or the mouth as the case may be) with a HUGE cranberry flavor wouldn’t have been a good thing in my opinion.  This is a nice subtle cranberry flavor that lasts the whole chew long.

Spitibility and longevity are very nice here.  I kept this in for a good 20-30 minutes and I never really lost flavor and it stayed moist throughout.  Jake’s still doesn’t pack all that well (at least not like a traditional tobacco chew) but it’s not really supposed to.

Nice smell upon opening the can and as I stated earlier a nice sweet flavor.  The flavor profiles here is just what I’d expect from a cranberry chew.  To me it evoked the cranberry sauce that I eat at Thanksgiving rather than “fresh” cranberries.  My wife drinks cranberry and vodka and it also reminded me a bit of that (sans the vodka 😉 )

The new cranberry flavor has already been added to the Jake’s website.  It’s available as a 10 pack, part of a split 10 pack and is also included in their sampler pack (where you’ll get one of each of their current 7 flavors).  Jake’s Mint Chew can be found on the web at www.jakesmintchew.com  Use coupon code “hooked on healthy” on checkout and save 10% off your entire order!

This was my first time trying Jakes and since it ‘s the day before Thanksgiving I went with the cranberry. When I opened the can it smelled like bubblegum to me. The can was packed to the gills and didn’t have the missing pinch. Tastes really good. As far as spitability, I spit once or twice, but it tastes so good I really don’t feel the need to. I also love the texture. I got the 10 can sampler pack. The only alternatives available here in PA are Oregon and smokey mountain. Jakes is going to give them a run for their money
