bespoke

@ar47 the I wanted a Sambac Jasmine snuff and Roderick hit that out of the park. I am not the best at describing scents but it’s like a more manly Jasmine, a little muskier and richer. Weirdly it’s very gentle on my nose and system. I might have to actually order it again soon since I’ve been going through a mad amount of it.
 @Epitango that sounds awesome. I’ve been thinking myself of seeing if he could make snuffs that are composed of different tobaccos the way certain pipe tobaccos are. I imagine that might be more expensive but worth it!

@SammyD13 still haven’t tried the Ambrosia guess that’s going to be on the next order.

@bob I might have to order some of that! I have been missing the WoS jasmine.

I seriously recommend this. I am super happy with the two snuffs I always wished someone would make.

@Roderick how much do we have to order to get the Jasmine and how do we order it? I’m about to place an order with MrSnuff - any way to combine them? Also what if I want it a certain way - could I order 100g and say with the most coarse base and oiled.

@Roderick that is great! I think I might have to wait until around Christmas time to do an order, though.

Nice! Thanks @volunge ! @Roderick Also, I have been trying to figure out a strongly herbal-cool scent, I do not know exactly what yet. So far I think double-peppermint, lavender, a little menthol, some eucalyptus, and possibly German chamomile and catnip. I would expect with the price of the last two ingredients, the number of oils and the extra labor, this might be a more costly product. I do not know exactly the proportions yet, but I definitely want a smooth, strong, herbal scent. I would leave it up to you to get the mixture right. Maybe some oil to contain the essential oils. I still think I might have to wait until this holiday season to do it anyways. Just wondering if it sounds like a do-able prospect. Would anybody else be interested in what he could do with this idea? Edit- could even have common sage, clary sage, cypress etc. I think you can understand what I am trying to figure out.

@Roderick If I order 400g, can you make this Jasmine @bob keeps teasing us with for me, but with a more coarse grind than Ambrosia, with some Rustica, well soda’d, oiled, and with a hint of menthol?

@roderick that is accurate. I have some of those oils at home, will do some experimenting to get a better picture of it.

also the fine ground rose/sandalwood snuff he made is incredible. It couldn’t be leveled out any more perfectly. I call it a fake attar. But it’s also super tasty and very moreish.

Order is in for two bespoke snuffs! Jasmine and Cherry Cola, both oiled. Thanks @Roderick! I imagine this will take some time- what’s typical?

all I can say is I was shocked by how quick it got to me. Honestly I fired and forgot expect it to take a while which it didn’t. I’ve had orders from shops take longer before.

Speaking of which @Roderick are the scents used in Spanish Gem and Ambrosia the same?

To add to @SammyD13 s question, @Roderick in your professional opinion how awesome would 400g of oiled Ambrosia be? Do you think this is a worthwhile endeavor? I literally just put in an order five minutes ago and considered it strongly, but thought I’d run a sanity check first.

@zonesix I’m pretty sure Ambrosia is oiled already. When it’s all dried out it’s still clumpy and snuffable and has that mineral oil texture. Same with Toque USA Citrus. I don’t mind them dried out at all, but others like Quit and USA W&H I need to keep moist to enjoy

@ar47 hmm. glad I asked before ordering then. I haven’t tried it before, but I included 100g in my order last night, having read it’s basically Spanish Gem only “more”.  I don’t usually buy in bulk, but Toque makes it so easy and cheap. If only I could get my daily Poschl fix in bulk.

@Roderick two questions that I don’t see an answer in the thread:

  1. Can a previous bespoke snuff be ordered (such as Sambac Jasmine mentioned) and how would I order that exactly?

  2. How does one get in touch to request a bespoke snuff other than adding the 400G bag to the cart? I imagine there would be some back and forth discussions by email or phone?

At last… my love has come along. Bespoke Sambac Jasmine, well oiled and lightly medicated plus Rustica. @Roderick this one is pure genius sir and should go strait into production, exactly as-is! Here’s me trying to fit it in a 0.9L container 20191003_185407 I also got my Bespoke oiled, SD base incl medication and Cherry + Cola. If I re-ordered I would say extra Cola, light Cherry. It’s still also fantastic, really spectacular grind and just the absolute perfect moisture & oiling like the Sambac Jasmine. This is my first night with them but I’m personally, definitively sold on Toque Bespoke. The last Toque tin I received was earliest this week, a Toque Rose from MrSnuff. It was more moist and aromatic than the many tens of Toques I’ve ordered in the past. My current thinking is that the only way to order is Toque Bulk Direct once you find what you like. Happy customer
