What an amazing snuff this is! I was turned off by the military-based packaging, but man am I glad that I ordered some. This is bound to become one of my everyday snuffs. It’s dry and quite fine, but I can handle it so much better than american snuffs. There is so much going on with the taste, and the nicotine hit is great. If anyone hasn’t tried this yet, do yourself a favor and pick up a tin. (Nicotinerush.com has the best prices I have seen for them.) ~Snuffy
Great, glad you like it. There’s really nothing not to like imo, great flavor and satisfaction, I still use these every day. I think the Shot is just as good and Medic is pretty nice too.
I just ordered Shot Of Rum. The medic tastes kind of cough medicine. I’ll give it another shot, eventually. Grunt is pretty much amazing. ~Snuffy
Now all we need is larger packaging…hint hint Tom!!!
We really do. I just got my 10g tin a few days ago, and I have made quite a dent in it. It is quickly becoming an all day, every day snuff for me. ~Snuffy
Place a BIGGER order!!! LOL!
NICE! I definitely would have made a bigger order, had I known I was going to like it so much. It will be included in my next order I’m sure. ~Snuffy
LOL! Sorry, I couldn’t resist!
I just ordered some of this as well. I KNOW I’m going to wish I ordered more! I just hate the the thought of ordering a lot of something I haven’t tried. Although I also ordered 25g od toque Bourbon…
Unfortunately, I have no control over the manufacturer. Suggestions on this board are monitored by the manufacturer. Give em a shout about it.
I’ll be very surprised if you don’t like the Toque Bourbon, Mark. It’s superb!
I agree Tony. I could have probably been safe ordering a bulk bag direct from roderick but I also wanted to try the grunt and the f & t hdt so I was able to put together an order worhty of the shipping costs. How’s that Stoker’s working out?
I haven’t tried the Grunt yet (though I intend to) and the F&T HDT is truly superb. It’s one I never want to be without. I know what you mean about making an order worth the shipping cost… I seem to do that a lot! Must say I love the Stoker’s Plain. A really exceptional snuff. I dread the day when it’s all gone. I do hope you’re enjoying those Schmalzlers just as much.
I finally gave the poshl doppelaroma a fair try yesterday and today. I really enjoy it! I’m pretty sure this one will be one that i will enjoy everyday, kind of like a treat that I will pinch when I’m home.
Glad you like it! I find I tend to use the very fruity ones like the Doppelaroma fairly sparingly and the plainer ones, like the Schmalzler A and the Bernard Brasil Feinst rather more often. The latter is one of my favourites.
Since I have my “hands full” all day walking dogs, I rely heavily on my bullets. I carry five with me all day. I think all the schmalzers will be perfect for the evening wind down period before i go to bed. Lately I’ve been carrying Toque menthol / quit and rooster / quit blends in two of my bullets. They definitly keep me going during a long day!
Quit + Rooster must be quite awesome! I’ll have to give it a try. Using the bullets when dog walking makes sense and I don’t think any Schmalzler would work in a bullet. I agree, they are great snuffs for relaxing with.
Back to the Grunt, I have been using it for about 2 weeks now and love it. I will expound on the brief review I made on other threads. Back in about 81’ or 82’ I got some RYO for Stag tobacco that they called Turkish Gold. It was pure oriental and no burly. They only had it in bulk so I don’t know the brand. It had all the smoothness of Balkan tobacco and a spiciness of an Indian curry. I smoked a lot of that back in the day. I have also had some cigars with java wrappers that had this spiciness. Those are the only things I can compare this to. I am wondering if this is not a Balkan/Java blend. Hay, Mr. Snuff you want to weigh in on this?
I want to ad one more thing. I can see this type of plain snuff becoming a classic in the vain of HDT or SPs.
I want to thank everybody fro their kind comments on FUBAR snuff. Credit should not go to me really…I taste and comment and suggest, but really it is the master blenders who work the magic.
