Grinding American Spirit Perique Blend

R

What do you think would it make a good snuff?

J

Absolutely! I Have some and it is fantastic. do not hesitate. Highly recommended.

S

I would say it would be best mixed in small doses with another tobacco. By itself, the perique was too sharp for me to smoke, let alone snuff.

D

How would you go along to grind ANS Perique Blend because I have been interested in making my own snuff’s to save money and or have a whole new snuffing experience.

D

How much snuff would you get out of a pack of Perique blend you suppose?

R

My plan is to get a coffee grinder and grind it up into a fine powder and place this powder in a jar. Then cover the opening of the jar with pantyhose and sift the snuff. save what comes out regrind or discard what stays.

D

@Juxtaposer would a RYO bag/tin of Perique blend be better for making mass batches of ANS Perique Snuff?

J

@digitalsedition It would be safe to say that from a 40g bag of Spirit you could get 40g of snuff, @DaveK313 Better than what? @rdunnion It can be as simple as that. You won’t be disappointed.

R

I have seen bits and pieces of people rehydrating with water, oil, and I have some vegetable glycerin that might work. What would be the wise method to hydrate the snuff once ground?

J

Yes in fact you’ll find it much better after hydrating. Watch out for mold. I would recommend only hydrating what you plan to use and leaving the bulk dry. Distilled water sprayed on or an indirect humidor hydration depending on your patience. I would try the glycerin to see what it’s like too.
