.hi I made a very important discovery recently. ANY snuff you find hard to pinch can be made easily pinchable by adding JUST A SINGLE DROP of PURE water to a 5g smash box. Give the snuff a good shake after adding the water. Be very careful not to add too much water. If the snuff goes clumpy you’ve over done it. With fresh snuff, this does not adversely affect the snuff at all. It might slightly reduce potency though, because of less fine powder. Since this discovery, I can now enjoy whopping big pinches of D White w/out fear of coughs, watery eyes etc. All you need to do is SLIGHTLY increase the humidity of the snuff. I’m amazed how well this actually works.
You can get the same result by just doubling the size of your ordinary pinch to about the size of large pea per nostril. Adding a drop of water gives the same effect; you get a coherent dose into the nostril as opposed to what amounts to a short jet with a small pinch. A drop of water doesn’t dilute the snuff, and if it was visibly clumping you would have added too much, as you point out, but it does alter the consistency, which is the key thing here. When, in effect, a bolus of snuff goes up your nose most of the surface area is inside which means that it is assimilated more slowly. All this happens with extremely narrow margins that are hard to quantify, but if you experiment you will get the same reduction in the nose burn.
Keep it out of your lungs and embrace nasal masochism.
That too.

Is getting snuff in your lungs very common?
no unless you work in the factory.
Ahhhh
Or you could pack the barrel of a co2 bb gun with Bohica and shoot a half gram up there. No inhaling required ! { DO NOT TRY THIS } Large pinches of scotches, toasts and even whites are easy without diluting the pleasure. Before I mastered the white, I’d put a small piece of citrus peel in my snuff box. This gave it a tinch of moisture and added scent as the snuff got dryer I got accustomed and no longer need to pollute the makers intent.
you don’t want to hear about his rites of passage. sorry had to tease.
Love the burn, hate the throat hit, too bad I didn’t know to try this before trading all my whites off.
