Nicotine Extraction from nasal snuff

[PeteMcArthur]

Has anyone tried extracting nicotine from snuff? I ask this as I've tried a few snuffs now, some are very nice, others I feel replicate snorting ground glass and sodium hydroxide perfectly, so I've got a few tins that I might use. Another good point is that in the UK snuff does not carry any duty so it is by far the cheapest way to buy tobacco.

Interested if anyone has tried this..

I don't think that's a good tobacco source. Nasal snuff is a fine powder and will be more difficult to filter out from the final liquid. One thing I want to try soon is using the Wise "tasteless" snus pouches. These have 6mg of nicotine each delivered in a whammo fashion quite unlike other snus. They've make me seriously ill from nicotine overdose twice -- so I won't use them again. My plan is to dump them in a pot and simmer them for awhile. I have about 60 to test that way!

I was doubtful about the powder, and the snuff I have in mind is very fine. I'll be interested in your snus experiment though, even buying it from Sweden it's a lot cheaper than smoking tobacco.

Aye, and yet somehow their single-malts are ok.
