Ive got into a habit of using mccrystals aztec of a evening, in the daytime i like a scotch or a bit of old paris and the likes. Any recommendations for some other relaxing evening ones? Im not into menthols or flowery types.

Hmmmm… if you like McChrystal’s w/ flavor you might like Summer Harvest (raspberry), Sicilian Burst (lemon), and/or Mulled Magic (clove).
Also, I really enjoy WoS Plain anytime.

I’ll add my vote to Mulled Magic, if you like cloves and cinnamon.
An absolutely stress-free snuff for any time of day is SG KB Original. I can’t praise it enough. It’s almost plain with a very slight citrus hint. Lovely.

Buy a tin of KB though – not the doser, right?
Mine dried out…

Oh yes. I only buy tins. Other than Pöschl’s Gletscher Prise and similar I’ve never had a good experience with a plastic tapper. They’ve always dried out by the time I get them. I don’t know why they can’t be shrink wrapped like McChrystal do with their tins.
Rant over!

Good suggestions, ive got mulled magic and sicillian burst, they are both lovely. I like clove, the toque xmas pudding is nice for cloves too. Think im going to get my mulled magic out.
Anyone tried the toque ginger? I quite fancy getting that on my next order with toque.

I’m usually a HDT at night because it is the cleanest in my nose.
I love the Toque florals before bed and Christmas Pudding.
I adore F&T Santo Domingo but it can get a little messy and drippy when laying down, and usually I have to clean my nose before I can sleep when I use it. Same with Poschl Sudfrucht. So nice before bed.
I know that you said no menthol, but I do like Crumbs of Comfort at bedtime, which isn’t really a menthol but it’s kind of menthol…mostly spearmint.
Also Bayern Prise, it’s got a small whack of menthol (and I do well with Poschl menthols personally where I have more difficulty with English menthols)…I have heard it’s Poschl Schmalzler A Brazil (which I have on order and can report back with once it comes in) with menthol added.

Taking a glance at the composition data on BMEL website (or the spreadsheet with German snuffs ingredients), it flows out that 15% Poschl Mix Snuff (aka Ozona English Type / E-Type) blended with 85% Poschl Schmalzler (by weight) of one’s choice would render same medication level as that of Bayern Prise. Some believe that the base is Schmalzler A, others are pretty sure it’s Perlesreuter. I’m yet to try recreating it myself.
1 g Mix Snuff (Ozona E-Type) + 5.6 g schmalzler.

I rather liked the ginger, I just wish it was a little more gingery - if that makes sense. I mixed St Clements and Ginger together, which was a nice blend.
I am also enjoying French Carotte in the evenings, mostly for the scent as I don’t think it’s particularly strong on the Vit-N front.

Thank you! Your snuff knowledge never ceases to amaze me! Also, now I gotta order more snuffs.

6Photo Special is good right before bed to load up on the Vitamin N.

I like M&W Mature Crumbled as a nightcap. Quite soothing and contemplative.

A little pinch of toque Violet is nice and relaxing. Scent stats a long time aswell.
Though personally I like a strong one at bed time like toqueUSA whiskey Honey, toque Rustica alkalized or dragon madras, I’m finding. Smaller pinch than usual for most though, especially dragon madras and Toque Rustica alkalized.
Less matter in nose I find less stuffy issues laying down vs big pinch.
Been using TPS madras alot lately at bedtime lately.
