When it comes to dip, everyone has their personal preferences. Some people, most likely teh gays, like flavored Skoal that gives you neither a nicotine buzz nor that glorious pinch. Some people, most likely heroes who eat flapjacks every morning and bang supermodels, i.e. me, chew Kodiak, which is like walking into a piney heaven.
But a lot of people like Copenhagen. Swear by it. And I’ve never understood this.
I’ve said a million fucking times that Copenhagen is like chewing your way to hickory death tin by tin. The taste is straight up wood. Not tobacco, not “shit,” no. Just wood. It tastes like you took a pinecone off the ground, washed off all the piney goodness (seriously…I need a thesaurus, I keep using the word “piney.”), put the pinecone into a coffee grinder, set the grinder on “fine,” and then put the rest into the space between your lower gum and lip. Copenhagen, even the long cut variety, is so finely ground it sucks.
But then I heard that they were coming out with Wintergreen Cope, and let me tell you this my friends, the game has been changed.
I’m not one to sit here and say flavored dip is gay. Wait, I already said that? Well, let me amend that …flavored dip is gay unless it’s the flavor that I like, which means it’s ok. Wintergreen is less a flavor than it is a state of mind, and if Wintergreen Cope were a state, it’d be Vermont…or Oregon…or some other state that’s maple syrup rich and loaded with great weed. Maple syrup…I love it on pancakes, I love it on pizza.
You fucking Southern faggots have no idea what you’re missing with real maple syrup. Wait, I’m getting off track here…back to the Cope.
Anyways, this thing is way longer than it really needs to be so I’m gonna get to the bidness.
Lets get rhetorical.
Why is this on a sports blog? Because dip goes hand in hand with baseball…DUH.
On a scale of 1 to Padma Lakshmi riding a unicorn made of bacon, where would Wintergreen Cope rate? 7.
Is it better than Kodiak, the alternative in the premium tobacco, wintergreen flavored dip? Better, no. Comparable, yes.
Why should I buy Wintergreen Cope? First off, it’s damn good with a nice pinch and a noticeable buzz, even for an experienced chawman. Also, they’re doing a special introductory price thing where I got a can, of Cope mind you, for $2.50.
How does it compare to regular Cope? While regular Cope is nasty, the pinch and buzz are hard to match. I’d put the wintergreen version right up there, only it tastes much better.
Did Copenhagen finally realize that their “long cut” was nothing but a government aided conspiracy that went ALL THE WAY TO THE TOP? I think so. My tin was long cut and not the mouth destroying coffee ground shitfest that regular Cope is.
So, if you chew or don’t chew, I’d say that you should probably give Wintergreen Cope a try. It’s a nice alternative, and while Wintergreen is technically flavored, it’s not like it’s something gay like Cherry or Vanilla. It’s a subtle wintergreen taste ’splosion with a very hearty buzz and a nice pinch, and considering you can get it for dirt ass cheap, I’d say it’s the best value around when it comes to tobacco with fiberglass bits mixed in.
And now…to make sure that you never EVER decide to dip…here’s a video of some redneck fuck with FOUR fucking entire cans of Cope in his mouth at once. Enjoy.
Put your hand up on my Kodiak. When I dip, you dip, we dip.
/this may be my only contribution of the day, so I didn’t want to make it count.
I approve this message.
Do Southern people as a whole not use real maple syrup? Or just the poor ones? I couldn’t imagine someone consciously using maple flavored corn syrup by choice.
long cut straight>long cut wintergreen>everything else

Was never a fan of cope. Tastes like dirt in my opinion. Used to like Kodiak before it got popular and made their prices sky rocket. But when it comes to fiberglass, nobody does it like Kodiak.

I like cherry Bandits.

That video is fucked up.
no such thing, n00b.
Sorghum syrup, my man. That’s where it’s at. Also, I might have to give this stuff a try. I’m intrigued.
tampa, who is that in your new picture?
That’s the chick immediately to the left of Vader fistpump.
/YEA!
Never dipped before, don’t understand the appeal, puffing a cig is much cooler.
You can’t puff cigs in the dugout, which is where approximately 99.99% of people pick up their chewing habits.
except that cigars smell like shit to anyone not smoking them, and it tastes like someone sharted in your mouth the next day.
Depends on the quality. I could go for a Cohiba.
we have similar tastes. cohiba’s are delish and BOLD. CAO brazil ain’t bad either for a cheapie.
how many cans are in his armpit.
black and mild for me, thank you.
no thanks. my dad has dipped Wintergreen Skoal my entire life and now both of my younger brothers dip too. thankfully, I missed out on the appeal.
miz likes his cigars like he likes his women.
bingo.
I like my cigarettes like I like my women White and Menthol.
Skoal is better. Mint. Wintergreen gives me third degree burns. Or maybe it’s second degree.
Kodiak = WT
WordThisAgreed.
wintergreen cope is a disgrace to cope, and i LOVE maple syrup you jive turkey!
/what?i didn’t say jive turkey, i called you a cock sucker
