What is the strongest snuff(in nicotine) you ever had?

^^^^ So far I only know of @indiansnuff selling the NB Madras. Maybe he has stolen a march on the rest of the snuff retailers (outside of India) & has in his inventory the strongest nicotine snuff available to the Western World?

It will be interesting to see if some of the other snuff retailers notice @indiansnuff’s new enterprise and if they feel the need to stock the products he’s now stocking. Of course, that would be a good thing for snuff users – but I kind of hope that he retains his early adapter advantage. I think he’s doing a great job introducing some new snuffs to users outside India.

I’m trying not to directly compete with anyone just fill a hole in the market for unknown Indian snuffs. I will just be happy if they all get just a little bit more attention outside of India as there is some real gems out there.

I would have to agree with some others in this thread and say that Toque Rustica (fine grind) is the strongest I have had.

I saw a few people say Viking Dark was the strongest snuff that they’ve tried. Well, I just received an order for half a kilo of the stuff. It’s certainly a good, strong, robust snuff, but I’d have to say that in terms of nicotine, it’s nothing like as strong as some of the plain Indians that I’ve tried and that have been mentioned on this thread. Not that strong nicotine is everything, of course. I certainly prefer the stronger snuffs, but I wouldn’t much care for a house guest who grabbed my bottles of spirits and eagerly checked the alcohol content on the label to ensure they met his minimum standards. I do think it’s only one factor amongst many and that some people dwell on it too much.

@JakartaBoy I agree with you. I don’t drink alcohol to become drunk, and I don’t use tobacco for the sake of feeling the very extreme effects of nicotine. Both alcohol and nicotine can help me relax, and there are times when I want more alcohol or nicotine than others, but… Point made. I tried Viking Dark recently, and to be honest, while I appreciate the flavor of it, I don’t really feel the N too much on it. I’m not sure that the effects are from nicotine, but of the dozen or so snuffs I have tried thus far (still a new snuffer), I get much more of a “body feel” and couch lock feeling (and actually a slight tingling in the feet, as though I had been standing in one place for far too long) from Fichtennadel. Now that may be a result of the rather large pinches I take of the Fichtennadel (I usually box car a pile that is about 1 cm in each direction, averaging 250-300mg a snuff), granted, but still, if the effects were any stronger for me from that one I would hesitate to drive a car immediately after using it. Shame I can’t find it in bulk, as it’s rather expensive at $4 per 10g tapbox, but I digress…

Nicotine content was never an issue with me… It’s all a matter of: How big a pinch do you take? and How often do you take a pinch? I don’t even notice the nicotine hit… For me, it’s all about: How much does it open up my sinuses?

I’ve been looking for a proper strong snuff for a while now, Toque Quit and NB Madras are on the low end for me, even ground up Samuel Gawith Brown No4 is only hitting a medium level, I guess years of cigars and pipes have given me a pretty high tolerance. The only one that comes close is 5 or 6 helpings of F&T Princes or SD with about 5 mins between each.

I just recently received some NB Madras from indiansnuff and it is very strong. It makes my front teeth tingle and no other snuff has ever done that. It probably isn’t for everyone, but I like it a lot, not all day, but it really has a lot of nicotine.

With 96% of the snuffs I have, I do not or hardly feel the nicotine, the exception however is Makla Neffa Ifrika which almost always gives me a 5 to 10 minute rush after 1 pinch! After that comes Viking Dark, but it will take a couple op pinches within minutes in order to achieve the same effect.

Just opened a fresh can of N.C. Super Special Snuff…Yow…Nicups, tears, Rush…Thanks for that! Me Like. :smiley:

I have never felt a nicotine hit or, caffeine hit for that matter. I once got a little more awake from a BFC of monster. I also have not tried heavy nicotine snuff so, we will see. I am worried about the higher nicotine snuff being just too hard to take for me though. White elephant just sounds scary.

" the fragrance of a crowd in a very hot, congested market place." Sounds disgusting. The description says it isn’t but, hot sweaty man sounds just awful. I do the bacon cheese snuff and, that smell like dog treat bacon, so maybe it is not as bad as I would think.

Bernard’s Klostermischung is the strongest stuff I’ve had. I don’t know if it’s actually the snuff or the grind allows me to take a lot more without it seeming as much.

White elephant just sounds scary.

The white Indians are quite strong, but I think people tend to exaggerate just a bit. They may feel quite strong because the grind is so fine, so it’s quite an intense burst, with a high burn factor. Sure, strong, but passes quite quickly and not like they knock you out so you need to sit down or you feel your pulse rate increase or anything like that.

I don’t need to sit down but my pulse definitely increases, I find they are much stronger when taken off the back of the hand or thumbnail. They don’t make me buzz very hard or anything, more like a really brief but powerful stimulation.

I have had K.F.C. double down make me feel my heart beat but, I doubt that it was a stimulant effect. Also once when I deep fried a piece of white bread. I am never eating either of those two things again.

Headshot =/= nicotine really

@Igglet if I eat too many KFC’s strips I feel my heart beat stronger too

This is a great post, I cant wait to try some of the ones mentioned here. Personally I find every day that each pinch gets bigger and bigger. But the strongest I have in my opinion is the white elephant. But I have some of the coarser ones that are rated at high nicotine content. like Sir Walter Scotts Moro Moro, and Abraxas St Casura, and NTSU yellow. Really dont care for the NTSU coarseness, but the Moro Moro, and St Casura both are a little less coarse and have a long lasting burn. The elephant is intense and fast like a horseradish burns. None of which use all day, I prefer them at night when I can pay attention to the doses better. As far as the nicotine buzz goes, I quit smoking rolling tobacco in June 2012, this was when I found a decent e cig. The e cig delivered nicotine at a much higher amount than any of the filter less cigarettes I smoked. It was almost like smoking my first cigarette again. So now 2 years later Im still using the e cig, and since discovering mr snuff and the huge selection of great tobaccos, Im debating on quitting the e cig. Because, it works great…when it works…but, thats for another page. I guess all I was getting at Is personally I don’t really get a nicotine rush from anything, but a sweet soothing burn, possibly because of the high level e juice consumed daily, in other words. Its all going to be dependent on your tolerance… But I cant wait to try the Toque rustica. I have some rustica tobacco growing in my yard now.

I have to change my answer and say white elephant, now that I’ve tried it. I read a description that said like cashew nuts and that seems close.
