@ The Wiz

I find Toque Quit to be my regular snuff. For me it doesn't clog at all. Poschl clogs the heck out of me.

Try to figure.

My new favorite is I blended 50% 5 Photo Super Himalaya with Toque Quit. The quit has super strong nicotine so there is a little sting than the Super Himalaya soothes the nose.

You really need to try the Indian Snuffs they are heavenly at least based on my experience with Super Himalaya


I am going to try that combination of Quit and Super. I think Wiz will like the 5 Photo snuffs since they all have a touch of menthol in them. Today that is all I snuffed was 5 Photos. Having some Honey bee now

LOL yeh 50g is a lot of snuff for sure. But it is very good snuff! I figure I have enough to last the rest of my life and then some.

I find the Toque brand a good choice for beginners, especially to kick the analog cravings to start.

Using the QUIT and PEPPERMINT flavors really reduced my cravings for analogs.

Bornagainst, I saw your post yesterday and went and pulled out my peppermint snuff - the one I had was McChrystal's Supermint, which is peppermint.

Every once in awhile I have cravings that I just can't seem to get ahead of, no matter how much vaping, snus or snuff I do....and yesterday was one of them!

Luckily it doesn't happen that often, but it does. And it was even a relaxing day off for me, so I'm not sure what triggers it...but, it's not lack of WTA or nicotine.:D

I want to work more with this and see what happens.

But, I did find something neat this morning on research for peppermint and weight loss: 5 Ways to Stop Cravings

"Peppermint: Maybe the most effect scent of them all, research has shown that people who regularly smelled peppermint reduced their hunger cravings to the point that they consumed 3,000 fewer calories over the course of a week. That's almost a whole pound! Peppermint has even been shown to improve concentration. Not bad for a little sniffing action."

I know you weren't talking about weight loss, but I thought this was interesting and I'm going to make sure I have peppermint daily!:D

All, I'm back rethinking there might be more to this 'mint' than I realized and relating to cravings...or is it just me- now I'm looking at my snus. :D

Usually not a day goes by that I don't have at least one General mini mint and as you know they are super minty. Yesterday, I was trying new and different snuss and I'm trying to remember, but don't think I had one all day yesterday. (I've working on one now, which made me think about this.)

One thing I'm 100% positive on is the General Wintergreen and when I had to give that up because of the taste, that one made me a little sad. There were two times I do remember with that one took away all my cravings for over 2 hours! When something lasted that long for me, I did take notice that I hadn't even thought about vaping, snuss or snuff - it happened twice, so I know that wasn't me imagining it. :)

Bornagainst, interesting subject now that you've brought it up. I'm going to pay more attention to it.
Has anyone else notice anything along these lines?

I'm sure it varies by user, but all the menthols I've tried set me on fire. Has anyone else tried Fribourg and Treyer snuffs? I have 3, Santo Domingo, Old Paris, and High Dry Toast. The SD had the best aroma/flavor, (unique exotic spice) but I usually mix or follow with the HDT for a little more kick. You do need either experience or a lot of caution to take a snuff as fine as the HDT, though. There is a very fine line between getting a good nosefull and having it shoot through and down the back of your throat.
I'm checking out the netti pot idea. When the weather is dry,...well, this can get a bit gross, let's just say it sounds like a good idea.

Hi Spaghettus, Welcome! Yes, the F&T...I really, really like. Right now I'm just trying them all and haven't decided on just one favorite, although a few have stood out. Just a hint, in case, you're interested...the best price on F&T is from Northerner.com, but the shipping to the states is slow.

I, too, don't like the snuff going down my throat and I still haven't gotten that one down pat. I did read on another forum and I keep practicing --to try and close my throat, hold my breathe and just gently sniff in the snuff, so it stays in the front of your nose. Sometimes it works actually...still practicing.

Now I'm going to have to try your suggest of HDT as a chaser:)

I do enjoy the F&T Santo Domingo and the Old Paris, I have not tried the HDT yet, amost ordered it on last order but took it off in favor of the new Sternecker snuff. I will end up ordering some as it has been on my wish list for awhile. I also enjoy the Bordeaux, Princes Special and Dr JR Justice. I cannot stand the Seville, I have a tin of it that I have gone back to from time to time but just cannot get a liking for.

I tend to use the saline nasal sprays more than my Netipot but I do try and use the Neti at least once a day. I find keeping the nose moist with the saline spray helps when taking very fine dry snuffs although I am still trying to get the best method for taking the Dholakia White, that stuff is just downright painful to me regardless of how I try and take it in.

I am loving the 5 Photo snuffs which do contain menthol but it is very pleasing and easy to take, it is not a burny menthol like Dr Rumney which is about the only menthol snuff I have tried other than some of the fruity ones. 5 Photo has become my number one snuff even knocking out my beloved Molen's Windmill snuffs.

Just got my first snuff today. My first hit was of QWS Irish Coffee - I might have a low nic tolerance or something because this stuff hits strong! Flavor isn't that strong but the nic hit is pretty good. I'll update you as I try more flavors.
Congrats gashin.....Keep us informed on how it's working out for you! The real thing has to be much better than the Snus/snuff you were using..LOL!

Thanks for the warm welcome into the snuff world Wiz! Yep it's way, way, WAY better. The snus wasn't giving me a rush at all because the coffee grinder couldn't get it into a fine texture. The taste was bearable but compared to real snuff it wasn't worth it in hindsight. I'm hitting my more expensive stuff, Dholakia swiss choc and McChrystals OG- so far my fave is McChrystals - seems to be the strongest out of what I got and the menthol really soothes my nose.

Well heck gashin, I'm only an occasional snuffer, but I'll welcome ya to the real snuff world, too :). I'm not a big menthol fan, but I enjoy an occasional Poschl Redbull for pipe clean-outs. For a nice sweet treat with a kick, try some Honey Bee. Generally speaking, throat drip is an unwanted side-effect of sniffing too hard (snort), but if a little burn doesn't bother ya, snort up pile of the Bee for a really enjoyable drip :).

Thanks for the Welcome Victor and nice pic. How's that Redbull? Does it really smell like redbull? Is Honey Bee the American snuff? From this stuff I got (QWS, Dholakia, McChrystals) I'm only getting a mild nic buzz.
