Snuff!Snuff!Snuff!

[Vaporista]

I've been vaping for a while now and while I am cigarette free, I do find that vaping is just not enough for me some days. I just can't explain it. I vape Dekang 24mg and 18mg juices and I have a variety of e-cigs and some days I'm happy with just vaping but recently I've felt a certain angst. E-cigs are just not cutting it for me 100% of the time. I note that TB supplements his daily nic intake with snus as his main form of nic with vaping providing his oral fixation, but I've tried snus too. Nothing wrong with it but I recently tried snuff and what do I know, but it works far quicker and far better for me. Now I'm trying to find a happy medium between vaping and snuffing. I always thought sniffing brown powder was disgusting but once I tried it a few times with a menthol McCrystals I just loved the feeling and it's no more offensive than the pouches of snus albeit a little messier for sure. Now I find snuff to be a rip snorting start to the day and a couple of pinches throughout the day seem to have me vaping a bit less. I definitely feel the nicotine quicker in snuff than snus.
Now I'm not sure whether I should be enjoying this too much but I'm certainly getting my nicotine needs met and I realise that using the stuff in public might well raise a few eyebrows as it is anything but discreet.

What ever works for you. I personally haven't tryed snuff but I do like snus. As for snorting it in public I think I would pass but even still if you have the container clearly marked with what it is you should be alright.

Snuff actually satisfies the nic beast? Hmmm

New to the snus thing and I'm enjoying it with out doubt. Don't know what the social mores are like in S.A. but if your enjoying it ... snuff on!

Snuff actually satisfies the nic beast? Hmmm

Snuff is a beast unto itself It's long fingers beckon me back to the tin again and again. I don't know what the better nic hit is, snuff or snus, but if I was a betting man, I'd put my money on snuff. Hands down.
For some reason (and I'm only talking about one brand here-McCrystals-haven't tried any newer snuffs) the absorbtion rate thru the nasal membranes is x20 quicker than through the gums. Compared to snus I definitely notice snuff satisfies quicker. That's just me. I wonder what others think?

If you're into snuff that's a good place to hang out. I use the bullets when I'm out and about. It's a very discreet way of doing it. Check out TB's video on snuff.

Yes the bullet is the way to go, nobody thinks anything of it

Godd morning vaporista. Like you wordsmithing, "It's long fingers beckon me back..."

I've no doubt I'll give snuff a try at some point. Still so many flavors of snus to try though that it wouldn't be fair to me to start something else right now.

Then again... What's that, the bullet? Up the nose? Hmmm, s'pose I better go read up on snuff bullets..

The snuff bullet is a convenient way to carry and dose your snuff.

I recently tried a very refreshing snuff. It is made by Poschl Tabak and is called Ozona Spearmint. I highly recommend it.

If you like the spearmint, you'd love the Wilson's Crumbs of Comfort. That stuff is very minty and gooooood. Another great one (at least I think), is the Toque Pomegranate...not mentholated, but yum!

 

[The Wiz]

Hmm...I may have to try either of those spearmint snuffs...I tend to lean on the menthol most of the time...although I am becoming a big fan of the Wow Coffee Bite!The Wiz!

I guess I have too much Native American blood in me, I sniff snuff and look out. I start sneezing like a chain fired cannon, been trying since I did some training with the SAS back in '82.
