Snuff noobie, right forum?

[leannebug]

Hi,

I see a lot of posts about snus, but only one referencing snuff. Is this the right forum for help? Is there a "help" guide (like the ones stickied for the snus, ecig, etc)?

Luckily, I traded for a few samples (Toque Lavender, Swiff Honey Bee, Sandlewood in a bullet) because the only local snuff smells like dirt

I'm ready to venture out and purchase some more, but haven't a clue where to shop? can anyone reccommend their favorite online shop? Perferrably one that has lots of variety, and small sizes. (I want it all, don't I?)

Also, how long should a 'sniff' or 'snort' of snuff last? When would you do it again?

And is there any way to keep from looking like a pig that's been rutting in the mud? Are they always this messy? I heard they come in white, but I really don't want it to be mistaken for something else!

Thanks in advance for any help,
L

Welcome to the other side of the tracks leannebug. You've found the right place, and there will be others along with more advice.

My two favorite places are Sharrow Mills online, and nicotine rush. Here are the links:

Wilsons of Sharrow Snuff | Tobacco Snuff Store | Buy Snuff Online

Nasal Dry Snuff, Accessories : Nicotine Rush

Nicotine Rush may not have a lot to choose from until they finish moving their business overseas.

Sharrow Mills has a lot of great snuffs to choose from, plus they make it so it is fresh. My personal favorites are Lemon Grove, Irish High Toast #22, and Orange Chocolate.

I'm not sure why you're having troubles with a mess? I always carry a dark hankey with me. Here are a couple links to some helpful posts here.

I have ordered from mrsnuff.com and wilsons website that the link is posted for in the last post. I got good service from both. Both were very responsive and helpful. I have not ordered from nicotinerush but have heard good things about them. Also I have ordered from toquesnuff.com and also got good service. It doesn't hurt either that they have free shipping.

Thanks for the links. I think I've seen the Nicotine Rush, but I couldn't remember the name. Do the "name brand" stores carry others, or only their own?

I'm not sure why you're having troubles with a mess? I always carry a dark hankey with me.

I've been using a baby wipey, but a dark hanky sounds better (won't wash away my make-up!) Probably just need some practice. I'm putting it on my hand, so basically sniffing blindly, and I'm just worried more than anything.

Here are a couple links to some helpful posts here.

TY! I will check out those threads!

OOoooooooooooo. Free shipping is always a plus! I like the lavender too.

I also read something about some "Indian" scented snuffs. They sounded right up my alley. I love those smells. They did say that they are stronger, but the Sandlewood/Patchouli I tried was: WOW! But I 'snuffed' it straight from the bullet, and Jo said not to do that, so that could be why...

Thanks again for the help!

Welcome, Leanne! I don't have much to add to what skymer and hittman have passed along in terms of where to shop and where to find info, but did want to pop in and say hello! Everyone here has been incredibly helpful as I was starting out and if I can "pay it forward" in any way, I'm happy to chime in if you need any feedback or are looking for more info. It's "slow season" here on the forum, but most of the experts are still checking in from time to time, so you'll find loads of good information to be had. You may also want to check out Snuffhouse.org - Nasal Snuff Community for a load of information.

leanne, if you can catch her, Dgriego is a good one to ask about the indian snuffs. I think she has tried just about all of them. I know she used to talk about the 5 photo snuffs alot.

Don't get me started on the Indian snuffs! They are my favorites by far. The 5 Photos are wonderful and most of the Sun snuffs are pretty darn good. If you are looking for high nicotine the Dholkia blends like Kamel, Ganja and Manjal are all very good.


My top snuffs are the 5 Photo Golden and the Ganja although I love all of them and use one of them every day.

The Sun Pari is my favorite Sun snuff and it has Sandlewood in it.

You might also want to try some of the F&T snuffs if you like perfume. They have some really good snuffs.
Their French Carotte is very good, as is the Morlaix and Macuba.

Welcome to snuff, it is surely good stuff, we sure do love snuff!

Thanks for the warm welcome!!

Ok! I may take you up on that! I know next to nothing!

It's "slow season" here on the forum, but most of the experts are still checking in from time to time, so you'll find loads of good information to be had. You may also want to check out Snuffhouse.org - Nasal Snuff Community for a load of information.

What a great link! Anything with "org" in the title sounds intriguing.
I hope I can learn a lot, and y'all have certainly made me feel right at home

OO! Thank you! I think I saw those at the Nicotinerush place (from the link ^). I will keep an eye out for her! TY

Great timing! LOL

Those all sound very interesting. My favorite Indian scent is the Nag Champa. Are any of those similar?

That is one in my check-out basket! GOOD to know!!

Wow, they all sound great and (if you'll let me) I'd love to pick your brain on the individualities of them sometime. (herding cats at the moment)

TYTYTY... It certainly looks like I've come to the right place

I am taking a little break from the forum and just checking in from time to time. If you have any questions for me send me a PM as due to short time on forum I might miss a post directed at me.

I am not sure about Nag Champa, you might want to try the 5 Photo snuffs out as they are more exotic in scent, the Kamel, Ganga and Manjul I mentioned are pretty straight forward, one is Rose, the other is Rose and Musk and one is Clovish.

The F&T morlax macuba and high dry are in my stable and get used often.
