Your latest snuff order

@volunge Reading your post I’m really, really tempted to grow some seeds in my buddies backyard next year. Some really interesting Rustica varieties.

@Wild_Alaska I’m really looking forward to that one in particular too. I only ordered one tin of the black rapee and I already feel like it was a mistake not to order more lol. I’m not completely educated on the subject, but I remember reading that the rapee style is very close to how the central and south American natives traditionally used tobacco. I’ll definitely post a little review on the black rapee under the “What’s in your nose?” board, when it all gets here, soon hopefully.

@BobFrapples I’m scared to death to order anything under 50g. And if I’m gonna get 50, I might as well get 100. And if 100, might as well get 2.

@Germallet, you can even grow rustica on a windowsill, if you have any South-oriented window. I grew one in a small 2-3 l pot, it was more than twice smaller than the plants grown outdoors. You can sow rustica as late as end of May/beginning of June. It takes a mere 30-40 days to bloom for most of them, then another 30-45 days to mature.

@BobFrapples, English rappee is very different from that made by American natives. The former is coarse and moist, made from dark tobacco, fermented in alkaline brine, using purified alkalis; the latter is fine, bone-dry snuff, made from N. rustica and wood ash, sometimes with the addition of other herbs or natural flavorants.

@volunge I have north and west windows and 5cm wide windowsills. Nope I couldn’t grow indoors especially with 2 kids. I’ll either wait if we move within the next year or ask my buddy to grow some next season.

@pantsBoots how’s that payment to rosinski work out?

@wild_alaska It… worked… well? Forgive me, but I’m not sure what you’re asking. I’ve ordered twice from Herr Rosinski and both times he offered excellent service. The first time, the package took 3 months as it traveled across the sea by boat. The second package took less than 2 weeks. International shipping is still having the hiccups. The snuff, IMO, is the best available if you like the German style (of which he makes several). Feel free to direct message me if you have specific questions.

@pantsBoots looked like I had to do a bank transfer to pay on the site, just wondering if it was hiccup free…

Gotcha. I used paypal both times, but had a balance on the account, so used that

Was wondering if anyone has had any trouble with Toque shipments lately? They’ve been really consistent all year until now, it’s very rare that it takes longer than 8 days for me but now I’m at 15 and counting. Has anyone else had this issue with Toque?

I have been waiting over a week and it was sent 48 hour

Bob my last Toque took 34 days. I have a Mr Snuff that just passed that and still no joy.

@BobFrapples my order from Toque took only 8 days but looking around in different snuff groups several people wait between 2 and 3 weeks. Keep in mind that shipping is still slowed down due to the pandemic.
