Hey all. In this thread, I’d like to compile a list of snuffs that are very dry, fine and high in nicotine. I’ve tried a few varieties of snuff, and found those qualities to be preferable. Unfortunately, I’m still very much new to this particular sort of tobacco, so I’d appreciate the help of this forum in finding other snuffs that’d be up my alley.
As cold and boorish as this might sound, I personally only use snuff (and any other form of tobacco) as a vehicle for nicotine delivery. Blasting my nostrils with a pleasant aroma might be nice and all, but the real goal is a strong, long-lasting nicotine buzz (for me, at least). I’ve found snuffs that are moist, coarse and of medium to low nicotine to be the least effective in this regard.
Obviously, the entire Swisher line of American scotches meet the dry/fine grind requirements. However, out of the entire Swisher line, I’ve only tried Starr - which has become my favorite snuff so far. For those of you that have sampled the other Swisher snuffs: do any of them pack an identical/stronger punch, while having a better aroma?
I’m also aware that several Indian snuffs meet these requirements as well, such as White Elephant and Cheeta. However, I haven’t had the chance to try those yet.
