Neffa Bledi
Do somebody know this snuff?..I bought it in France. It is very similar to southafrican snuffs like Taxi or NTSU so it´s deffinitely my cup of tea..packed in 8g boxes..made by Poschl (!!) Germany. Black box with blue sticker..Oh..how I like this snuff!! It has spicy, delicious taste combined with barnyard smell of pure tobbaco..Something for Taxi or NTSU fans..but much finer grind and lighter in colour..

I'm sure they'd love a photo of it as well!
Probably should be its own category, but that's the way they have it set up.
was a snuff throat hit before this one. The snuff powder is so thin
that I felt it going through my nose to the back and to my throat
instantly woow ! I hope it dit not got to my sinuses just have to do it gently and might not be for beginners but the nicotine hit is right there ;-). I don't know why but the smell reminds me of Camel. The
snuff is very light brown as compared to the other I have. I think this
snuff might be what you call "Toast". If I put it on a spoon, a light
trace leaves contrary to the others, it is very very thin. Tobacco 90%
Texture agents 10%.
What do you think ?

Is Neffa Bledi still avalaibale in France?
Would love to try it.
I mean, menthol is good, but this brand must have some serious methol junkies on the board..
So, my friends, it's Poschl, it's plain and it's rustica. Stronger and drier (3.8% nicotine, 6% water) than Sifaco's fresh Neffa Ifrikia (1% nicotine, 16% water). Has a typical smell of yellow rustica, which I find very pleasing - biscuity, honeyish and hayish. I wouldn't describe it as a nicotine bomb (although a friend who sent me this treat found it stronger than Toque USA W&H) - total amount of alkalis is a mere 5.6%, but I haven't craved for any other snuff during my first tin, which lasted me four days, and hefty boxcar on a clean palate set my head to a light spinning mode quite a few times, especially taken as a first thing in the morning; for what it's worth, I didn't feel the urge to chain pinch it or take several boxcar loads in a row. Burn is pretty mild and throat drip is not harsh, it doesn't clog up the nose, frontal drip of average intensity. The grind is somewhat uneven, but pretty fine, 90% particles are finer than 150 micron, the coarser 10% pass through 300 micron mesh. In contrary to Neffa Ifrikia, this Neffa Bledi is made from clean tobacco and is virtually sand-free.
According to data publicised on https://www.anses.fr/fr/content/les-produits-du-tabac-et-produits-connexes, it's alkalized with sodium carbonate 10-hydrate (about 2.84%), calcium hydroxide (about 1.93%) and potassium carbonate (0.85%). So, if you have access to yellow or brown rustica (https://www.leafonly.com/tobacco-leaf/tobacco-leaves/nicotiana-rustica) and have slaked lime, potash and sodium carbonate, you can easily make similar snuff at home, simply mixing finely ground rustica flour with dry alkalis and a splash of water. If you don't have sodium carbonate 10-hydrate, use 1% regular sodium carbonate anhydrous.
@Snufferdemedicis, how fast did you get your Neffa order?
