I really love this wonderful snuff. It’s so plain and really gives me the feel, taste and pleasure of taking pure tobacco at it’s best.

But everytime I take a new tin of it out of my shelf I think: Why does Roderick call it Quit and places those silly “Don’t smoke”-signs onto the tin? Don’t misunderstand me: It’s great when people succesfully quit their smoking habit with this strong in nicotine snuff. I like it. But Toque Quit is so much more than an instrument for not smoking. It’s a pleasure in itself. In my opininion the name and the signs on the tin somehow degrade and devaluate the high quality snuff, which is recommendable not only for people who try to quit smoking but for all who love a plain tobacco pleasure.

I think I will for a long time or perhaps always enjoy Toque Quit as my everyday- and everywhere snuff, but I want to suggest to Roderick to use a new name for it. I am no expert in marketing, but perhaps something like “Toque Natural plus N” or “Toque Strong Plain” would be more appropriate. 

A

I agree, it warrants a better name - Quit sounds like its an NRT product, which in one way it is but it’s a superb stand alone product and probably the snuff I use more than any other, on its own or usually as a blend with one other. At the moment I’m using Quit with Navy sweet, absolutely delicious.

I would call it something like Toque Extra, max, hypermax, whatever but not Quit.

T

I think you guys are talking from a place of knowing what it already is rather than someone new to snuff. I bought Quit to stop smoking, and if it wasn’t called Quit, and didn’t have the no smoking signs on it I wouldn’t have really known it was specifically for quitting smoking or for a stronger than normal nicotine hit. I didn’t know what the ‘Extra’ in SP Extra meant either

I think the purpose the name and sticker serves is much more important than a superficial/aesthetic issue. If it wasn’t clear to me in my first order that it was made for stopping smoking, I probably wouldn’t have got it, and would have had a harder time quitting smoking and I’m sure quite a few people have bought it for the same reason I did. IMO If it’s made for that reason, the packaging and name should be representative of it, and also because if people see it a place other than Toque’s site it’s quite clear what it’s made for.

I wouldn’t mind a design change, but I hope a name change/quit smoking sign removal doesn’t happen for all the people who might quit cigarettes due to it. I think that’s much more important. Maybe Roderick could bring out something similar to Quit seeing as so many people who aren’t using it to quit smoking like it.

A

Valid points.

N

good point mr @Uve
 I didn’t order Quit earlier because I’m beginner as a snuffer (+stoopid) :)  and it didn’t just sound right to my ear. but it is exellent snuff! Mr Roderick send some to me in his ingeniousness . flavour is so down to earth, erathy? and it’s very nice “base” to make some blendings. like putting 8parts of quit, 1peppermint, 1menthol and 2-3pars of lime toast. such a treat. did that just yesterday. now I concider Quit to be top ten snuff in my ratings. but . . if your best friend would be called george bush, you would still love him, yes?

T

I’m on both sides of the fence with quit, but I don’t think we can risk changing it as it works so well. We all no the saying, if it isn’t broken don’t fix it.

I do like snuffsters names “Extra Max” and “Hypermax”.

T

how about
High Volume?
High Octane?
Vitamin N?

B

Or you could pull a wilson of sharrows. And name it queens extra toque while still selling quit.

D

For a long time I couldn’t take it without firing it straight into my lungs and causing a massive coughing fit.  I lovingly refer to it as ‘Widow Maker’.

I tried to use it to quit cigs, but it was just too hard to take as a total noob to snuff.  It’s one of the snuffs that will keep me off cigs, but being totally inexperienced, I may have been better off to start with something like QSnuff.

V

I like the idea of changing the name of the ‘Quit’ variety, in fact I have not tried it yet because of its name, but the whole logo ‘Don’t Smoke - Snuff Toque’ I think is a clever way to market to people who appreciate their vitamin N but would like a safer alternative, but what is important is that it is not only safer, but more socially acceptable, you dont have to walk outside to have a pinch like you do a smoke, you don’t stink all the time, no yellowing of teeth, bad breath, social stigma; your car, clothes, house, whatever isn’t going to smell nasty from cigarettes if you ‘don’t smoke - snuff toque’

B

I’ve always liked the idea of toque explaining stuff. Maybe take my suggestion and have the diffrence being quit comes with a little pamphlet with advice for quiting the cancer sticks.

A

Slightly off tangent, but I am desperate to spread the good news - try a blend of 50% Quit and 50% Navy sweet. They were made for each other. I don’t often say trust me on this but trust me on this.

@Toque - I hereby give you all rights and permissions to the names Extra, max and HyperMax.

on payment of some snuff of course.

B

I tell my wife it’s called “Toque ThunderDome”  because sometimes she sees me rubbing the back of my head after I’ve had too large of a sniff. 

S

Maybe Quit with the Extra, Max of Hypermax under it…

Regardless…a great snuff

N

I’m with bob on this one, you should pull a Sharrow. Still sell Quit for those who are looking to quit smoking but also sell the exact same stuff as Toque Extra for those who are put off by the name Quit and the no smoking sign.

E

The only thing I don’t like about the name, same as s’nuff smokers blends. They almost imply beginners snuff to ease you off the smokes(don’t get me wrong, they do it well). As great as both of these snuffs are the grind is incredibly difficult for a beginner compared to say, Viking dark. Which I find a far better first quitting snuff. I’ve offered both quit and s’nuff to smoking friends only for them to cough their guts up. Can’t see either of them being prepared to try anymore.

E

I like the Same Snuff Different Labels idea.   As for a name, how about Toque Pure?

H

HD is a pretty popular acronym, could be for Heavy Duty, in this case. I like the name Quit, and the product, but agree it’s probably not the best ‘first’ snuff for a newbie.

S

Roderick, a high nic snuff, slightly moist, with a grind like Viking Dark would be an excellent addition to your line. It would provide options that are a little easily snuffed for beginners that are trying to get off cigarettes.

W

@Slide - Yeah good luck with that “Strong Snuff” suggestion to Roderick, Let me know how that works out for you! Roderick was apparently bitten by a strong snuff as a child! Lord knows he could do it, but “Noooooooooooooooooo”! Just sayin…!

S

Hah!

 I was bitten by a girl when I was little…I got over it…just saying…
B-)

T

Ok, Guys I hear you! 

We’re introducing new snuffs this year and this will be addressed. Might have to give Snuffster some snuff.  

W

Roderick, It was only a lonely cry in the dark!

W

I like Toque “who’syourdaddy”, appropo.

U

Toque - great company with great snuff. They really hear their costumers. I am deeply impressed.

W

Thank you Roderick! Glad we could get that done with just a little humiliation, I was working on the “you will never see your puppy alive again, if you don’t make a strong snuff” letter just yesterday. Pain in the butt wearing gloves and driving far away to mail it! Please disregard all of the previuos letters, and go ahead and let the little feller out now, give him a kiss on that cold wet nose for me, he is pretty cute!

B

Candy.

D

a new name for quit     IT’S A TRAP!!

N

@Toque who are you hearing here, the two names idea or Whalen because I’m hearing Whalen LOUD AND CLEAR!!

S

@Whalen - I feel like something great will be coming for the snuffing kind What do you want to tackle next…world peace?

;))

L

@Toque - I like the name Quit, I think you should keep it. Not sure on the no smoking signs though. Maybe a slogan like “The snuff for smokers” or something on the tin. But I like the name anyway.

T

Seeing as Quit seems to be one of the more popular snuffs out there, how about this slogan in the style of Kenny Powers :

_ ‘Don’t snuff sh*t, snuff Quit’ _

T

n9inchnails, all of you really. We’ll keep Quit and have another newly named tin also with the Quit blend.  

O

I think it should be called Toque Nasty. Sorry Roderick but its one of my least favourite snuffs.

T

LOL! Come on, what about Cheese & Bacon.

O

Don’t you dare have a go at the divine Cheese and Bacon. I forbid it, even if you are the master craftsman behind it. LOL

D

I think ‘Mad Scientist’ is a better term when referring to Cheese & Bacon.  I may give it another try.  My cheese related trauma is slowly fading away.

T

Hahaha…people might aswell just get their Quit tin, make up their own label, logo and name and then print it out and stick it on the tin!

Even if Toque comes out with a new name and label, people are going to like and dislike the new design and name. Personal preference as always is subjective. You don’t look at someone’s baby and say “ooh…nice baby…BUT…I don’t really like the look of it, and I don’t like its name! Sorry! Can you change it for me…?”

As long as the snuff itself is good and people enjoy it that’s the most important thing imo.

:slight_smile:

H

The big question is with people that don’t know it’s the same product and how many of them will claim they can smell distinct differences in Toque Quit and Toque “Whatever”.

C

The big question is with people that don’t know it’s the same product and how many of them will claim they can smell distinct differences in Toque Quit and Toque “Whatever”.


Happens all the time with W.E. Garrett and Levi Garrett. Same snuff but people find “differences” due to labeling and packaging.

D

how about useing some of your existing flavours but with a quit base on say a ltd run when its gone its gone!!

BUT the bigest/fast/most votes is added to the line up…

T

The new logo lol :

I like this one :

But in the end it’s just a tin, as long as the flavour’s there I’m happy.

O

Speaking seriously for a second, I really don’t understand people’s aversion to C&B. Not wishing to offend the ‘haters’, but C&B is one of my favourite snuffs. When money permits, I intend on buying a second 600g jar. It worries me that one day Roderick might say, sod it, I don’t like thus snuff, so I’m discontinuing it.

K

@Theatre

Did you made those images? They are great! I love the color and texture on the second image. 

And a good LOL for the relabel of Quit.

T

Yeah I made 'em. I was thinking if anyone really wanted a name change or different look they could just make it in Photoshop stick it on and re-use that tin, especially if they made their own mixes and wanted a logo for it. I’m a big fan of natural looks and colours like wood so the second one could be printed out onto grained paper or card, cut out and stuck on.  I think the tobacco brown/wood colour suits it, and of course Toque has to put on a health warning by law, but if you made your own you could take it off

F

@Theatre   I think the second tin’s warning label applies to most here in this forum

D

@OscarWabbit I’ve had such a love/hate relationship with C&B.  I love the smokiness, the grind, and the moisture, but the damn cheese that lingers is what does me in.  If there was just a Bacon version I would order that stuff in bulk.  I think it’s just because I’ve never been a fan of strong cheeses.  I’m a mellow cheese kind of guy.  Until I was traumatized by a similar smelling pile of baby heave, I would take some of it, enjoy it until the cheese started hitting too hard, then follow it up with an overpowering snuff, like QSnuff Sandalwood.  That really helped me enjoy it.  I love the start, but I hate the finish.  I hope it is made in at least small batches for a while, but the current version of it I just can’t use on a regular basis.

O

@Dogwalla thanks for sharing that. May be that’s why I love C&B - I love string cheeses, esp blue ones. And I love bacon too. A bacon snuff sounds like a great idea. I’d also go for just a cheese snuff esp if it was the cheese used in C&B.

N

No offense to the C&B lovers out there but I imagine the people who like this stuff are the same people who squirt those whipped cream cans of cheese down their throat like its going out of style.

C

^ahahahahahahhahaha

H

So I love bacon, and I really love spray cheese, and yes, “insert nozzle in mouth” love it. Guess that means I would likely like CB as well.

D

@n9inchnails Did you hack my webcam or something?  Spay cheese is one of the greatest inventions of mankind.  I would consider research into more spray food products to be paramount to our future evolution as a society.  They also have spray pancake batter now, which when shot directly into a fryer, makes a wonderful funnel cake like product. 

T

I try to remind myself sometimes that everyone’s opinion is subjective, but good lord, we have people liking Cheese & Bacon which smells like fart, and people like ammonia which smells like cat pee. If there was a vomit flavour I bet people would be buying the stuff in bulk.

Apparently the ammonia smell is a sign of its freshness, but for all we know Roderick’s cat might just be taking a whiz on it before it’s packed.

T

I don’t have a cat, the cellar rats killed it! But don’t worry, the cellar Elves killed the rats.

M

I don’t care what anyone says, I’m ordering a 10g tin of Toque Cheese and Bacon next chance I get .  And I wont have a pinch until I do the video review! :-P 

J

It really feels like I’m missing out without having a go at the Cheese and Bacon.  

Sounds like it’s quite the experience, one way or another!

T

Just fart on some natural toast and you don’t even need to order any

I think it’s worth getting just so you can feel like you’ve conquered something, just like eating fermented fish, durian fruit, lutefisk or the dreaded surströmming, and I guess for some it’s love at first smell.

J

That farting idea could really give some varied results, depending on what you eat beforehand.

It’d be a real “home made blend” in every sense of the term.

W

@Toque - Do not ever change the name of quit, it is a classic.

S

The Quit name doesn’t bother me either.

In fact…add a Quit Toast…appeal to the low carb crowd
:))

But I do think a strong medium to medium fine grind would be a better option for someone trying to make the switch from cigarettes to snuff. It took me a while to get Quit down.

As much as I love Toque when I recommend snuffs for people trying to quit cigarettes or dip I have to recommend Viking Dark or Fubar Grunt. Grunt is incredibly easy for me to snuff. But Viking Dark is the easiest and what I think would be easiest for a new snuffer trying to go the harm reduction route. Brown is a little more coarse and I can’t do it all day, unlike the Dark.

L

it is funny that when i saw quit on any snuff website i’ve thought it is for “quit snuffing”. Anyway people buy snuffs after reading reviews like me.

B

If toque was to rename Quit- The Masters Blend would fit it well

B

How about “Spanish Gem, Hold The Honey”? …I kid! :-))

M

keeping it simple “Natural Extra Strong” perhaps? “Roderick’s Private Stock”? “Gold Label Natural”?

B

Leave it alone… but if you did change it, "Grimstone’s Eye "

J

Toque Rustic.

D

It’s pretty fine and was a challenge for me and my boss when we were noob snuffers. We always called it ‘widowmaker’, and still do just for fun. It has enough nic to crave a smoker’s need, but it was a pain for me to learn.

H

Three names, same snuff; Quit, I Have Quit, Didn’t Need To Quit.
