I can second what @ALLex had said - sounds like you are uptaking too much nicotine. It indeed happens, when you are smoking and taking snuff simultaneously, or with too short intervals between consuming both, I and some of my friends have experience…

@Abdoulaye, is this Moroccan nafha (Nefha Superieure) still produced and sold in Morocco? And how wide is its availability - can you find it in every shop which sells cigarettes, or only just in some and it's kind of hard to find? How much does it…

@Abdoulaye, homemade? Or you have finally found the seller?

Last pinch of my homemade, medium coarse, medium moist snuff – Poschl Pueblo Classic rolling tobacco, milled with factory moisture content and sauced with 3% potassium carbonate, 1% sodium carbonate, 1% salt, dissolved in 20% water.

@Abdoulaye, yes, you can use sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) without converting it to more alkaline sodium carbonate (washing soda), but your snuff will be weaker if you use it as a single alkalizer. For strong snuff, you definitely want to use str…

Taragui (with stems), cold. My staple yerba this month.

Finelly milled Poschl Pueblo Classic RYO (Virginia and Burley blend), sieved through 150 micron mesh, not treated with any additives.

@StudiodecolBleu, to be frank, I'm not sure about MSG, it's rather controversial substance... Available on some local online stores where I'm at, it is ridiculously cheap. I'm really on a fence about adding it to tobacco. But how's your rock tumbl…

Some steaming-fresh Hollander Bolongaro, made from Poschl Pueblo Classic tobacco this morning. Already nice! Many thanks to Jaap Bes @snuffmiller for the recipe!

Delicious homemade snus, made from Poschl Pueblo Classic additives-free RYO tobacco.

Checking in with Dragon Madras as well! My stapple, as of late.

@mrmanos, well, it also depends on... your tongue. For instance, there's only one verb for taking snuff in Latvian language - šņaukt – "to snort". "Snuff" is šņaucamā tabaka, literally – snortable tobacco. And it was exactly the same in Lithuanian …

@ALLex, indeed, looks akin to Ntsu. Nice! Can't wait to source some cheap additives-free Cuban cigars and turn them to snuff. Will try them with and without the carbonate/salt, finely and coarsely ground (drier and moister, respectively). Just three…

My natural coarse Burley, slightly scented with a tonka bean.

Obviously, it's anything but Sales & Pollard. It is clearly stated that Sales Pollard company "established a reputation for fine Rappee and Scotch Snuff"; they made Scotch snuff, bearing the initials of the firm. Thing they made wasn't an SP typ…

Cheers! WoS SSC gives a phenomenally sharp sting, most probably due to the salmiak or some other ammonium salt added (or a rather high pH; or both). It's not a menthol bomb, it doesn't contain any essential oils or camphor (or they are there in mini…

Only have some "A" now (a gram of really old Perlesreuter doesn't count, for it has lost most of the flavour now), so cannot compare them directly, but Perlesreuter had more things going on. I could clearly smell coffee/chocolate-like notes, the aro…

I'm in EU, so can't recommend any stores for the US, but check out this: https://www.reddit.com/r/Snus/comments/jcx76j/rsnus_must_read_threads_new_here_looking_for/ Do try loose snus! Get one of each (there aren't many), but leave strong, extra str…

Plain Burley. Just a straight, freshly milled tobacco without any additives, with natural moisture content.

Milling Burley this morning. Leaves naturally moistened outside overnight, about 10-14% moist now. I was interested to see if my coffee grinder would cope with naturally moist leaf (usually I dry them out to bone-dry before milling), and it turned o…

@ALLex, great to know, thanks for the update! I've suspected it might be the case.

Good morning, Toque Rose here.
