Sir Walter Scott snuff.

Even the most expensive snuffs are an affordable luxury, at least occasionally, if you live above the poverty line. For me, most of the Abraxas and SWS range that I’ve tried are the type of snuffs I prefer to take occasionally anyway. I admit I could use Lundy Foot all day everyday, but not Fields of Juniper or Cafe11 or Premium Club Fine. For me, they are superb snuffs best taken when you have time to luxuriate in them. Hmm, I must admit, I think I could get used to Firedrac as an all day snuff, too.

I’ve only tried the Mull of Oa so far, and yes, the price did scare me away for awhile. While it may be a bit much to be a daily snuffer, it’s an amazing snuff. I think you’d find you’d snuff it less anyways because the flavor lasts and is so wonderful. But I’m a Scotch drinker.

You take what you pay, here the rule is very clear, i prefer the quality or the quantity? the experience of a pinch or the greed of the quantity? simple questions, simple answers, simple determinations. @number_seven go for Lundy foot & Havana toast and you will not regret it…

I’m definitely going to expand on the Scotts, but I’m not really into toasts. Yet. Agreed on quality over quantity. And Mull of Oa IS quality.

His Snuff is soooo good! It will kick you on your ass too. Oh I mean arse. Mull of Oa is my fave so far. I’ve tried 4.

I settled on Lundy Foot which is nice, Creme De Figue which reminds me of some old fish bait but is still nice and fields of Juniper which goes great with a martini.

My latest Creme de Figue was kind of sour smelling in the begining and then it went totally amonia after a month or two. I discovered that I had to take some and leave it to air overnight and miraculously the amonia dissapeared leaving a really nice figue flavour. I mentioned it to Johnny and he said it was strange no-one else had said anything but it sounds like you have something similar. My previous jar had no sourness or amonia at all but this latest jar when properly aired is really great.

I use creme de figue daily, for me to use the same thing day in day out without fail means it’s good!

Havana toast and lundy foot are really differents in scent. Each sws snuff is a different experience. Auld alliance makes me have nice dreams. Latakia blend is a kind of experience too kind of sedative thing. Havana is a real cigar taste i would eat it lol but it tends to give me headaches very quick if i take too much i don t know why.

I have aged border rape too very sedative and too strong for me.

I have tried a few of them. SJP and GH were both too subtle for me. However GH blends well with the Lat Blend. Two others needed a few hours to ‘wake up’. FRP fresh was akin to a muted sweet paprika and LF fresh was akin to a natural toast. After some time both became highly flavoursome!
