I’m finding the chilli a bit to much which I suppose is it’s intended purpose so it’s certainly working. When I smell my FireDrac filled bullet there is a very nice (almost FOJ) scent. On snuffing I get immediate quite strong cherry which reminds me of Tunes cough sweets and pretty much immediately the chilli starts and continues to burn and I don’t really understand the appeal of this personally, even though I’ve just made a big pot of chilli for lunch so I do like chilli. I was wondering was there anything that anyone has added that could reduce the burn and maintain the other nice aspects. I’ve just mixed some FD with a little of the Dragun Menthol and that helps some but it still burns a lot. Perhaps with some Lundi foot it may work better. Maybe I should just use it in my next chilli lunch? Just had another idea. Some type of lemon citrus snuff. I’ve got Strasbourg or Toast No.20. I think I might just have answered my own question?

I had concerns it might be too much for me too, but taken in sensible quantities and with a nose of something already laden with Scotch Black or Viking Dark, the burn was a pleasant one (for me). I’ve not tried using it on a clean/empty nostril though.

Just tried 50:50 with Strasbourg. Ummm…naaaaah. Has taken the edge off the burn some and is quite nice now initally but the citrus has taken over. Hold on (live), yep it still burns a hell of a lot.

Really that bad huh? I am glad I squashed it from my last order in favor of another snuff. I will certainly buy it anyway in next few orders, wondering what bohica is like?

its my favourite! (the tub i bought, not the tub i got direct from Nigel). im giving many more snuffs a chance recently, but i still love firedrac. fubar bohica felt like i re-broke my nose though. avoid if you cant even handle firedrac. on toning it down… im not sure what it would go with, although @50ft_trad has the right idea, using it after another snuff, preferably a plainish one. it tingled first use for me, but the nose seems to get used to it.

I think it’s just good snuff with a load of cayenne pepper thrown in and I would have preferred it without or a lot less. Just doesn’t appeal to me. I definitely prefer nice scents rather than just my nose on fire. Strange thing is after using it I’m now finding the menthol in the Dragun Menthol stands out whereas before I tried the FireDrac it really didn’t and I liked it better that way. It’s turning into another bad snuff day. I also messed up my order with Mr Snuff and ordered their 6 for 5 10mg tins of Toque in amongst my order. It then turns out that the offer doesn’t count if you use the SHIP20 code which is not a big deal but then I find out that if I had ordered direct form Toque I could have got the same Toques only in 25g tins for the same price as Mr Snuff is charging for the 10g. I asked to cancel the order which I placed yesterday so I could split it up between Mr Snuff and Toque but they may have shipped it already? Time for a beer. Maybe after several I won’t notice my nose burning.

@I_snuff_therefore___ … Sorry to hear that…we will all have good and bad days… If life gives you lemons… Make lemonade… I was bummed out once, ordering from Toque when i was in my first month of snuffing… I ordered 25 tins of 25 grams each ( overlooking the 6 for 5 deal - I knew about the 10 for 9 of 10 gram tins… But just overlooked the other… Well, I sucked it up and lived and learned. But when I received the shipment, there was 30 tins of 25 grams each… Roderick and his Toque crew honored the deal anyway, and threw in 5 assorted 25 gram tins ( 4 which I loved ) Roderick… CLASS ACT!

Thanks @AANYCAARDS. It does seem that ordering needs more care. It’s not easy to change once the button is pressed. Are Toque giving Mr Snuff a bad deal or is Mr Snuff maybe adding to much markup? I would rather order everything together but there is quite a difference between the two options. I still have yet even to try a Toque. It’s not urgent. It was the other Abraxas and Taxi and SG and Viking and Babaton that I was looking forward to as well as the Toque but I could have waited a little to order directly from Toque.

People are amazing. What was the difference in the tubs? I can handle it. I just don’t really want to. I won’t be trying Bohica or anythng similar. I even had Taxi Blue in my order instead of the Red. I’m trying to remember what possesed me to order FireDrac. I think I hoped it would be some kind of really nice flavourfull chilli burn but I don’t find it so.

well the tub i got from nigel, im not even sure is firedrac, its not so warm, and feels a bit oilier. it came unmarked, i didnt ask for it haha. it was called ‘loyalty appreciation’.

who’s Nigel? So what is it about? Is nose burning nice?

Abraxas. well, its more of a warmth i get when exhaling, and i enjoy the warm tingle, its not uncomfortable to me.

I find Dragun to have more burn than FireDrac. FD is my daily snuff. I use very little else anymore. At first I thought is was because it was new ( I’ve been obsessed with other snuffs for days, but never this long.) but it has lasted for months, since I first tried it. I don’t get much burn, just a pleasant warming. Although I do get all over warm if I push my limits.

i find dragun’s edge to be because i think its finer/drier. i definitely prefer the slightly coarser firedrac. and yes, it was my all day, everyday snuff till i got a load more to try. im sure ill be back to firedrac all the time soonish though.

That is yet again amazing. I definitely get BURN. Not quite help I need a fire extinguisher but pretty hot and I’m a Tobasco Sauce fan but I don’t put it up my nose, well not yet. I wonder did I get some especially hot batch? I’m not going near it again for the time being as it kind of ruined my day yesterday. I have no problem with the Dragon Menthol and like it a lot in fact at the moment it seems to have taken preference over my long time No.22 Toast love but I am now a little worried about what you say concerning Dragun as I have ordered a couple of tins. I thought it was basically the Menthol version without the Menthol and if it is then I can see me wanting to order tubs of that.

A sad tale of “How Firedrac ruined my day …” According to my senses & all the write-ups there is more heat in Firedrac than there is in the Dragun range.

Good, looking forward to the happy tail of how dragun slayed the evil firedrac. In a million years I really couldn’t imagine FireDrac being my favourite snuff. That would be a terrible tale. At the moment I can’t even imagine having an odd try at it.

Ok I lied. Liar liar nose on fire. Just tried the FireDrac mixed with some LF and that does seem to dampen down the burn quite a lot to a pretty strong warmness but the cherry doesn’t go so well with the LF although it’s not to bad. It’s definitely more useable for me or maybe I have even got a bit used to the Drac after yesterday. Think I may try the Drac mixed with a bit of FOJ next. Juniper and Cherry. That might be really good. Just tried LF/Drac again now a few minutes later and it’s really good. That is a success. The cherry seems to have blended in better already and I can appreciated the warmth now and I get the lovely toast of the Lundy tegether with the warmth of the Drac. Definite result. You gotta love a happy ending. :))

Firedrac is a get used to slowly type of snuff.my nose isn’t use to having chilli stuffed up it so its going to hurt for a while untill you get accustomed to it.i like it but wont buy anymore.i prefer dragun.

Another strange thing I found with all this is that after using the FireDrac and then trying the Dragun Menthol I seemed to get a lot of initial burn with the Dragun that I hadn’t been getting before I started trying the FireDrac, so this might be what some people have been describing when they say they thought the Dragun had more of a burn but it’s a burn that comes quickly and dies off whereas with the FiredDrac the burn builds more gradually and then stays and has more of a fiery chilli warmth as opposed to peppery burn of the Dragun. It really can get complicated trying to uderstand how these work and are best used. I’m going to use the Drac with the Lundy because that is very nice. 2 Lundy to 1 Drac. FOJ with Drac does not seem as nice so thats out. Going to try one more small experiment out of curiosity, FOJ with Dragun Menthol and if that works then ok I’ll use that but it’s no problem if not because I like the Dragun Menthol and FOJ by themselves.

ill try that tomorrow night .im full off cafe11 at the minute and that’s how it will stay tonight.

Just goes to show that this is a very individual sensory experience. One mans agony is anothers pleasure. It just is what it is… I like the burn, can’t explain why, but maybe the combination of the scent with the delayed/prolonged burning sensation just extends the experience giving a sort of 1 - 2 punch.

regular Dragun is toned down FireDrac

I suppose it may be too much for some, but it is delightful for me. The burn, yes, it is there but that is actually what I was expecting…

No supposing about it. My nose is on fire again! Yours must be made of asbestos! It’s a bit like being caught in an inferno and saying to the guy with the fire extinguisher, please no, don’t put me out, this burning is delightful. Other than that I really like the flavour. If it did not burn just so much I could probably enjoy the scents more. They’ve sold out of the 15g at the moment so I couldn’t get any more for the time being anyhow. Toque Pomegranate cools it down nicely and is good for flavour I have found. I really do think FireDrac it is a brilliant snuff but the heat does prevent me from using more.
