I look forward to trying Abraxas.
I’ve read a lot about Abraxas and tonight I’ve decided I must order NOW. But mrSnuff says: “No products to display in this section” or something to that effect. Is Abraxas only available from mrSnuff or can I order from someone else?
might be a way if you ask nice enough. Yeah it might require begging.
*sigh* I’m always too late for good things to come my way, guess I’ll just have to wait until I have money and buy it, sounds amazing though.
@snuffster Abraxas IMHO is a PERFECT desert snuff but my only gripe is that it could be a bit more “fine” ground. Other than that, I’m in love. It’s funny because I’ve wanted a snuff just like it until I tried Abraxas and thought “finally someone read my mind”
Thanks for the kind words, you have no idea how much they mean:). The next batch is coming on beautifully by the way. Rob, I hear what you say about making it finer, but Abraxas is the product I want it to be and not something I would dare to tamper with, if you see what I mean. But…the next Abraxas snuff will be an SP type that should satisfy snuffers who like a finer milled type, and it will have that Abraxas tang to it:) Pieter - I started with quite a small amount of stock really to see if it was viable to make it all the time. The next batch will see the start of bigger production runs and anyone that wants it should be able to order without any problem.
YES!
@transistor the second batch of Abraxas is much finer grind than the first batch. The first batch came in a glass jar, second batch came in a plastic one.
Sign me up if theres a place : )

I think the first 2 came in glass and the 3rd came in plastic. I am finishing off my 1st jar right now. I have another from after mr snuff ran out and restocked that is glass as well.
The first batch was all in glass but I have ditched those in favour of lighter plastic jars that hold about 5g more - although they still say 15g. I’m staying with those (and the extra snuff for the same price). The grind developed over the first couple of batches and is at the final form now. Basically, when you take a small idea and scale it up you learn on the job. The very first batch was made by me, the second by my brother (K57). Production is back with me now and the experience gained so far - just in how you go about scaling things up - should be apparent in the next, and by far biggest batch to date. Abraxas will always be my personal take on some of the luxury snuffs I loved when I first got into snuff and it will always be on the coarser end - but you can have coarse and smooth at the same time and I think the next batch will show that.
i love the glass jars … luckily, i have three.
@snuffster Almost all my snuffs are SPs. I am an SP demon! If the next batch will be SP variety I think I will fall in love. Forgive me if I’ve missed it, but do you have an ETA?
Should be mid November, all going well. Snuffhouse SP (SHSP) should come out in the early part of next year. Its been a very steep learning curve with regards production but Im getting there! My intention, of course, is to supply demand and its taken a while for me to be sure what the demand actually is. I still can’t believe its been a success - I always thought it was good but you can never tell if anyone else will think the same. Anyway, I should have a nice smooth SP for you before Spring.Abraxas will come back, in a limited way, in glass with something I have planned for Christmas next year btw - Abraxas fleur de snuff, @snuffbrant. The SHSP will not require a bank loan to purchase either.
@snuffster Good to hear. I really enjoy Abraxas and I bet I’ll like the other. I’ll have to pick up a few jars then. I’ll look forward to it! Great job on the first batch btw. I’d say with a lower price you’ll probably sell out quickly.
I’m looking forward to trying it. It is on my “to purchase” list.
Probably not, Vathek. I just wanted to put my two cents in about Abraxas. Been treating myself to bit of it occasionally and have to say it’s the best I’ve tried so far. It’s very majestic and worthy of the investment. Thanks for bringing it on the scene Snuffster. It is one snuff that when it tries to drip from my nose, I do my damndest to make it defy gravity… for as long as possible!
Vathek sure but it’s double the cost shipping is undetermined at this point. I offer this deal to all snuffhouse memebers cash can be sent directly to me. Then I’ll ship it off once I get the gramage right and fight an almost suitable container.
So @Snuffster - any word yet? I feel like a child waiting on Christmas - “Gee dad, Mr. Snuffster said he would be here in mid November to deliver free Abraxas to 10 little girls and boys who had never tried it before! Is it mid November yet?” Dad: “Not yet son, but it’s getting close.” “How 'bout now?” Dad: “It’s only been five minutes!” “Oh, OK… So how 'bout now?” Dad: “Son, ask me that just one more time, and you’ll waking up just in time to check your Christmas stocking for Abraxas. That, and your 2 front teeth…”
