Good Day Fellow Snuffers, Anyone out there like me, can’t wait for the first snuff of the day? A piping hot cup of coffee and a good snuff? Have a great snuff day everyone!
For the last month or so I was starting my day with a big fat lip of Copenhagen Snuff or other Amercian Dip (I know that is off topic for this forum) However I am very new to Nasal Snuff. Yesterday I started my day with a pinch of High Dry Toast up the hooter and a coffee a very good combo. I spent the whole day on nasal snuff and I was amazed at how well it kept the nicotine craving away and I think I am falling in love with HDT.

It’s funny, when I smoked cigs I had a smoke within minutes of waking up in the morning, but with snuff I generally wait an hour or longer before my first sniff.
I hate admitting it, but I still have to get the first cig of the day in before snuffing. First morning toot whilst reading the AP wire is usually Garrett’s Sweet accompanied by a cup of Tea brewed to the point of serving a dual purpose as a caffeinated beverage and a handy varnish remover.
use a coaster!
Lol! Point well taken.
Thanks everyone for the great replies. Snusify, I too am a long time fan of Copenhagen. There’s nothing like it for dipping. For tooting, it’s usually a dry scotch. Am going to try some High Dry Toast, sounds good!
Like Mr_Snuffypants, I too still need that first (RYO) cig of the day when I wake up, but between the snuff and a bit of snus (Oliver Twist) I don’t smoke again until I get home, and then only one or two. My first snuff is usually either whilst having my morning cup of tea or travelling to work on the train & tube, although I get the odd funny or curious look when I do it on public transport.
I’m another who has to admit to a couple of rollies first thing and I usually take my first sniff while my breakfast is cooking (egg, bacon, black pudding, mushrooms and a slice of haggis if I have any).
I wake up, I go to the bathroom, then I snuff. Usually its an English style menthol. Currently its Wilson’s SM Brown. It stays right next to the toilet. That’s usually my only sniff of a menthol on a given day. I smoke less than once a week now. Cutting back to that has been gradual, but much easier than I thought it would be. I never even wanted to quit smoking, but this 8 month foray into snuff (while dabbling in snus and the occasional pipe) has made it a pleasant journey.
I sometimes have a pinch or two on the way to work. Today, it was Toque Rose, very nice. I used to smoke four or five cigarettes while fighting traffic on the way to work, what a draaag. Lucky no more cigs. Occasionally, I’ll smoke my pipe on the way in, usually on Fridays. Most days, first snuff at 9 or 10, at the office.
The first snuff of the day is always impressive. A relatively clean palate will show the multifaceted nuances of even the plainest of snuffs. Due to this phenomena I will choose a different snuff every morning. Sometimes I will try a snuff that I don’t “get”, other times I will use a snuff that I know is great and is deserving of this honor.
when trying a new snuff do you first smell it or do you go right to taking it? On the arrival of my last order my brother was over that evening when I was sampling them all. After two or three he suggested that I refrain from the olfactory inspection and just take a pinch. I found this exhilarating. I’m also finding the ones that I did not enjoy initially are swapping position with the ones that I did enjoy at first snuff.
I am new to snuff however I have found that smelling snuff from the can does not give you a true representation of the aroma. Its the same with snus, some snus when it is fresh has an underlying ammonia smell and I also found that smell in the wilsons number 22 snuff. However when you use the snuff it is fine and you get the true aroma.
This is more about last night’s snuffing than this morning’s, but I had just gotten out of bed and walked into the living room when I got was greeted by the smell of Sandalwood incense and the hangover scent of McChrystal’s Violet still in my nose Thought I had died and gone to Heaven for a split second.
I enjoy a good mentholated snuff first thing in the morning, after I do my morning meditation and while I’m drinking my tea. Poeschl’s Ozona President or Gletscher Prise are outstanding “wake-me-up” choices! Besides the nicotine, in aromatherapy minty smells are supposed to be energizing.
Taxi Rock that was mine today.
The first snuff is always the best- I agree. Sometimes I start mornings with Hedges L260 and a coke. It helps to have a moment to reflect first thing when I get to work (much like my first cig of the day a few years back).
+1 for Juxtaposer. First snuff in the morning!
