I notice a lot of people saying there are certain nasal snuffs that can be used orally as well, and some even compared to skoal etc. I was just curious if it went the other way around. I used to dip Copenhagen when i was in the navy, never thought about putting it up my nose but when its fresh it does have a pleasant aroma. If anyone has any input on this let me know.
I believe you “can”, and I am sure some have. I don’t think I have.
You can, and I have, I just don’t recommend it. It’s like NTSU times ten but sort of reminds me of RR mills Macoby. I have also had a small snort of Grizzly Wintergreen, which is not much stronger in the nose than say checkerberry.
Yeah I’m sure it pales in comparison to real nasal snuff but at least i know if i was in a pinch, no pun intended, i could still get my nicotine nasally somehow. Thanks for the input.
When I were a wee lad…and I bought my first can of Copenhagen, yes, I snuffed some. Well, It wasn’t much fun, but that was before I knew anything. It said “snuff” on the label for Pete’s sake! What did they expect me to do with it? I have not tried that in 20 years now. I suppose it would work in a pinch. Anyway, I have heard that it can be used, but is better when dried a bit. The Mythbuster guys used it recently in their experiments. Watch the season finale. They wondered why anyone would use it recreationally. I wonder that too. Though it must hurt less than Bruton.
Guess they didn’t take the 5 to googolize it. Tho I have to admit, having a mytbuster or two as advocates for nasal snuff would go a long way. Of course, due to their status, they can’t do such a thing. Think of all the young mythbusters and macgyverians.
You can, but as has been stated … emergency only. Something like 30 years ago I took a can dried it out, then ground it much finer (mortor and pestile), nasty but tolerable stuff, and after my Fred Stoker order arrived I never touched it again. Worked, kept me from killing all the neighbors, Cope’ and the other U.S dips and chew are reputed to have a lot of undesireable chemicals and substances in them. As always, JMHO, YMMV and that’s fine too.
I have done it with Stokers’ fine moist “snuff”, to experiment. Better than the Cope with which I also experimented. But I would not want to have to use either of those or any others.
FWIW, to my taste at least, I’ve had tolerable success in periods of severe desperation, with Cigarette tobacco as well as several straight Virginia pipe tobaccos. Tolerable in an emergency, but never anything that could hold a candle to S.G, Poschl, Wilsons or Toque or any other ‘real’ snuffs.
Yeah, I’ve done that for experimentation, too, with Five Brother’s Smoking Tobacco, which I’ve got a stockpile of in the event of the arrival of the “new world order”, 2012, apocalypse, nuclear holocaust, great plague… 
I would use the NTSU/Taxi method of holding your nostrils shut so that it doesn’t fall out. Snuffing Cope is like a cross between NTSU and F&T Bordeaux. It isn’t bad at all, though I’d usually rather have something else.
It seemed the Cope scent did not last very long at all for me.
I tried this with some Grizzly Snuff once…ONCE !!!
If you dried it out and mortar and pestled it, it might be OK.
