    Default Snuff Vocabulary Help? :)

    So I'm ready to place my second order from nicotinerush, and I am in love with the starter order I placed weeks ago. I just applied for membership at snuffhouse, and until I am approved, I can't post over there. The intricacies of trying new Snuffs reminds me of the same intricacies of wine tastings, but for me in a better way(since i'm alcohol-free). I was hoping you guys could help me learn the snuff vocabulary, so I fully understand what to expect from each product.

    So a few terms I've run across are following:

    Plain ?
    Toast[High Dry Toast, HDT](meaning finely ground and very dry?)
    Schmalzler (obviously German snuff, what what characteristics?)
    Scotch ??
    Medicated(meaning mentholated or with eucalyptus?)

    Could someone clarify the exact meaning of these 'types' or 'classifications' of snuffs, and describe their characteristics?

    OK from my understanding and I am a snuffbie,

    Plain is plain tobacco no flavorings.
    High toast is just that a nice fine smooth grind. I am using WoS #22 high toast and enjoying it a bunch.
    Not sure on the german one but I think it might be a more moist bigger grind.
    Scotch is powdery wtfness. Watch it and go EASY!! rooster is one that will blow your brains out your ears. Same for honey bee, think of it as the lil yellow black winged bastards revenge. all sweet smooth and then it hits ya.

    I know it's kinda lame to correct a typo in a made up word, but shouldn't the word in your sig be spelled "Vapegasm" with no "i"?

    Well since you opened that can of suck please let me point out the derailment soo far off topic.

    Made up word yep sure is... typo not sure since it is not a real word.

    Who cares its been 6 months and no one BUT you have pointed it out.. Not only that but in an open forum and again soo far off topic...

    A Pm might have been a better choice.

    So had to get up and reply just for this, back to bed to await the dental doom.

    Allow me to expand a little. I have nothing better to do...
    Toast vs Scotch
    Toast will usually have a lighter smoke scent, toasty, Scotch will usually be a heavy campfire or BBQ smokiness.
    Scotches tend to be higher in nicotine. Also finer and drier than a toast by a little bit.

    Schmalzler, Dark, coarse, moist, fermented snuff made from Brazilian tobacco. Usually scented with deeply fermented forest fruits. Kept moist with Schmalz or fat, vegetable oil is used today.

    Medicated, I'm pretty sure is specific to menthol camphor and eucalyptus. Might include mints as well.

    Together we're gonna figure this snuff bidness out!
    (-; Poof :D
