What are your favorites and recommend to me as great Spring/Summer Snuffs?
Fine, dry snuffs with light citrus and/or floral notes.

J&H Wilson Top Mill no.1
WoS Grand Cairo
McChrystal’s Mild Lemon

I’m mostly familiar with Old Mill, so what I remember from last summer:
Limoncello, Lambic, Shandygaff, Melba Toast, Suzette, Mojito, Cuba Libre
OM Equinox 2015 OM Arabesque OM Kind Of Blue OM Limoncello OM Mojito OM Javelin OM Antebellum OM Calypso OM Evangeline And I know there’s more to this but this is all I can remember on top of my head. Peace and Alohas. :-c
I’m not a fan of many of the lighter finer snuffs. They just don’t work well in my face. Some SPs can be rather pleasant with a bit of extra hydration though. Kendal Brown (from the Gawiths) and Berwick Brown work year round for me, as do snuffs like GH Ambassador and F&T Princes. Some of the more pungeant snuffs such as Firedance can be overbearing in the warmer months, but mixed with a plain snuff such as Toque Plain or Viking Brown, can tone it down nicely. Others which I find work nicely are such as WoS Thyme and Lemon, SG Vanilla, GH Sea Breezes, GH Wild Mint, SG Mellowmint and Toque’s fruity flavours. Another good one is Jaxons SP Premium, though perdiodic rehydration to maintain the fluffiness may be desired. I’m currently waiting for a batch of WoS including Chocolate Mint, Butterscotch, Country Mint, Lemon and Lime, and Summer Berries, all of which I have high hopes for.
Poschl Gawith Cola. Light, refreshing cola, sweet, what more can you ask for in a snuff? I enjoy Hedges for my allergies, which I follow up with Toque Almond Toast, then layer my nose with Toque Vanilla, then top it with Gawith Cola.
EDIT: WoS Thyme and Lemon is great too, same with WoS PM-- both are very refreshing, almost cleansing.
McChrystal’s Mild Lemon is a great spring/summer snuff.
