So far my favorites are Poschl Ozona Presidente and the Poschl Gawith Apricot. Both are great. What I like about them is that they are medium grinds and when I sniff them they pretty much stay in my nose.

Tried the ... Chocolate Orange (Yum) and the Dolathia Black (very nice too) and noticed that it goes to my lungs when I sniff it. Just too fine and powdery. I guess I'm lucky because Snuff doesn't make me sneeze. If it goes to far I just feel it in my lungs.

With the Poschl I've been told that they may use a binder to keep it together but whether it's a binder or a medium cut I'm looking for the snuffs that are heavier in texture.

So I'd like any suggestions on brands or specific snuffs that are medium grinds.

Hey tom
I'm all ears/eyes as well. I have a duece of a time determining the difference in grind other than the extreme of a fine like a Scotch from, well, anything else!

The difference between the WoS Choc/Orange and the Poschl Gawith Apricot, I have both of those, seems to be more moisture than grind? Like I said I'm still learnin'.

That said let me throw this out to ya. If your hitting the throat your snuffing either to hard or to long or a combination of the two. I use Scotches regularly now, but only after I figured out the 'minimal' sniff. Moister, heavier snuffs are more forgiving but the drier ones, and certainly dry and fine insist on respect! :D

Grab up your Choc/Orange and use a small pinch. Short and sharp/sudden intake of air should leave the snuff in the front of your nose. If you inhale hard enough to make noise or you inhale for a prolonged period, most any snuff will make it through to the throat.

HTH and OBTW,
WoS Chocolate/Orange is greeaatttt! Orange creamsickle for the shnoz!

I concur(except for the WoS....I have not tried that one yet!!)Watch out for the American sweets and scotches Tom.....I would consider those a "Dust" grind. These are to be approached very lightly!!:)The Wiz!

I flair out my nostrils and snort so hard my toes curl up and my knees buckle. Burns through my sinuses, goes straight up and grazes the back sides of my eyeballs, then mixes with the brain juices to form a thick slop that appears to make my whole head glow....even set my hair on fire, once. So yer sayin' I should ease up?

Well you'd be the exception TV.

Kinda got the impression you like having your hair on fire while your head glows and eyeballs pop! :D
