I haven’t tried morocco or princes special. Im not big on Bordeaux but It’s ok sometimes.
I’m glad I’m not alone in my Old Paris infatuation…I like it more and more every day. I want to try Santo Domingo next out of the F&Ts, but, other than that, is there another ‘must try’ F&T I should check out over and above the rest of the range?
High Dry Toast gets a lot of praise, though I like Wilson’s No. 22 better. The rest are all florals, or floral blends, and if you like florals you can’t do better than F&T for sheer lavishness.
FandT’s HDT IS my favorite. Bordeaux is the only floral I have found That I can tolerate. I think I will give princes special a go On my next snuff order tho.
@vathek isn’t it a wonderful world that we live in where we are all different. French carotte is my favorite F&T and I don’t really like HDT.
Along the lines @Xander is talking about, I particularly like Macouba, but it’s not for the florally faint of heart. It’s an occasional indulgence simply because it is so intense.
Yes go on every one. try them all. they are all good in there own way.
@theratroom @vathek. Hehehe this is what I want to hear when TAD is in full swing, I’m glad I’ve got a journey ahead with F&T!
I really love old Paris. Can anyone recommend me a snuff that has the same quality’s ? - fairly easy to snuff - no real burn in the nose - the back drip is not burning but nice and sweet instead. - no clogging the nose. - a good tabacco base. - a nice sweet subtle aroma If you know one that has the same characteristics I would love to know !!
@Marielle32 The only thing that comes immediately to mind with all those characteristics is Toque Spanish Gem, but I’m sure there are others.
@snuffsahoy the comments matches great but i never tried scotches before so I’m not familiar with fine dry snuff other than whiskey and Honey from toque
@marielle32 In reading what you say and your complaint with toque wh, I think spending some time with an American sweet is just what you are looking for. TR is the least sweet I think, I’m a huge fan of it. I initially thought it was congestive but that seems to have resolved itself. After trying the English, Indian and Americans I have to say my preference seems to be heading firmly to the us style. Edit-least sweet of the sweets of course
@Marielle32 Silky grind, subtle scents: WoS Strawberry M&W Mature Crumbled (very nice!) M&W Particular Toque Toffee WoS Summer Berries WoS Butterscotch WoS Vanilla (may be a little strong at first, but better after airing out) WoS Chocolate Orange GH Strawberry is nice too, but has a slightly grittier grind. However, if you can cope with it, then you might like their Dry Orange, Wild Mint, and Sea Breezes for something a little different.
@50ft_trad I think Mature Crumble is spot on. The others I think are to mutch of 1 specific sent but will be on a later list for sure !
@Marielle32 Let me know if you want to try some Sea Breezes. I hate it, and will gladly ship all I have to you if you’d like.
