@Jari T: I was just basing it on the taste when you drop a little into a pipe you are smoking. I guess my taster is not as good as I thought. Try a pinch in a lit pipe if you like latakia blends. Gives it a nice kick of flavour.
I just went searching for Jaapās confirmation that thereās no Latakia in his Latakia snuff -and found it on page one of this thread :o)
@BradMajors, good for you, my young laddie!!!
@pauljmuk (and others) can we talk about the boxes a bit? having only gotten a smashbox of this (but already loving it and seriously considering getting bigger quantities, at least in the 25g form that MrSnuff has) what about the boxes? what are peopleās experiences with them/this? I really prefer whenever possible to leave snuff in its original packaging (on a hope that the snuffmakers know better than I what their snuff will keep in, and mainly, because I just donāt have the containage to relocate much of anything bigger than 2 oz) Also @micheltn (and others) how about it if it does dry out? I really love it as it, but lets say the boxes do stink and/or its going to inevitably dry out like moist snuffs are inclined to do⦠it is still okay? Anybody had this in a really dried out form and found it to be still good? I normally only have dry snuffs on my āto bulk upā list but this one could seriously be a contender and make me violate that rule⦠especially if its still sniff-able as a dry (also micheltn ā I havenāt intentionally left it open because Iām really liking it as is plus it may have dried a tiny bit on its own already ā sampler-style pillbox smash-boxes are a bit notorious for not truly snapping shut for me when I think they have and then I look and find the darn things sitting on my desk wide open I have some sort of extra hard time prying them open then getting them to agree to actually close). with all this in mind, Iām hoping (very optimistically Iāll admit) that a dry A/P experience is somehow just as good but just ādifferentā than a super moist experience. Iāve never really considered trying to bulk up on a moist (other than buying maybe 3 or so NTSU or Taxies at a time and just hoping heh), anybody ever done this? Anybody know where I even could buy this in real bulk (250, 450 etc)?
Nachman: āTry a pinch in a lit pipe if you like latakia blends. Gives it a nice kick of flavour.ā Hey, thatās a cool idea. I sprinkled some Widmill Lat. in a bowl of Hal Oā The Wynd āā it produced a few minutes of flavor (and nic.) boost. Cheers! @BradMajors: Ah, the proof was so close. Perhaps Iāve read it before and then āforgotā about it.
The De Kralingse boxes are like tapboxes on steroids. I like them even though I usually detest tappers. I think they are neat. And now all of Jaapās snuffs are available in 100g tubs. So even if you have to buy one here and there, there is no reason not to get these amazing Dutch gems.
@cstokes4, where can I buy the 100g tubs? (I live in the US and the two stores Iād look to first, MrSnuff and NicotineRush donāt seem to have it that way).
You can order them from Jaap directly. Simply email him at info@snuifmolens.nl and let him know what you would like and where you live. He will contact you with the total and how to pay. Here is the menu of snuffs and prices directly from Jaap: www.snuifmolens.nl
Jaap is not only a magician when it comes to making a fine snuff, he also has it together when it comes to shipping the goods. I placed an order with him about 2 weeks ago, it went from The Netherlands to Oregon in 4 days!! Amazing
thanks! going to have a look and email right after
Iāve been working up a bulk order from Jaap in my head. Iām trying to keep it under a certain price, but none of the snuffs I have chosen have volunteered to leave the list. When I take these snuffs, I just pop the top off the dispenser and squeeze my fingers in for a pinch. Its easier than tapping. If Iām putting them away for awhile, I seal the seam with electrical tape.
i wasnāt able to see a menu or prices, just two pictures of canisters without even names (I use firefox, maybe its a bug?), but (after a major completely non-snuff-related distraction) I have finally emailed.
press the āsnuffā button
airight⦠guess I could have sworn I hit that button before I hit āstoreā⦠but I see it now⦠at the top it says āAll snuffs are available 100 gram polypropylene screw cap containers ⬠9,00ā (any guesses what that translates as US dollars?)
a little over $12.00 if that is English Pound . My eyes arnāt so good so Iām not sure what your symbol is.
That ⬠is the symbol for Euros⦠£ is pounds sterling. God knows what $ is
its about 1.35 dollars to a Euro. about 1.5 dollars to a pound.
What the hell is a euro or a pound?
@whistllr Hereās a handy currency calculator. Save it to your bookmarks, we may be doing much more overseas purchases in the future! Just now 9 euro is around 12.14 USD
