Hello to all, First off, I’ve been lurking for some time now, so hi! I do have a question though: What would you all say are the best snuffs for quiting smoking? I’ve seen a few threads on this topic, but was hoping for some new suggestions. I developed asthma recently and have to stop smoking immediately, so any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Valeriana Atropa
I think many will suggest Toque Quit. The best way I think is to try a few variety and find the one you like most. This way you will have more incentive to keep using snuff. Good luck~~
I’m slowly winding down from a 45 cig a day habit. If you have access to Snus as well as Snuff, it makes cutting back or quitting much easier IMO. The Poeschl Snuffs are very easy to take for beginners, but the Nicotine content in them will probably not be too satisfying if you are a heavy smoker. Toque SP Extra has a good amount of Nicotine, but with that one the training wheels are off and you’re suddenly in the Tour De France! QWS (Quit With Snuff) has a variety of different flavours and is designed for smokers hoping to stop the habit. It might prove a little ‘sneezy’ for someone new to Snuff, but I find the ease of use and high Nicotine content quite pleasing. Toque Quit, or Original are also quite easy to take and provide a good buffer against cravings Good luck to you!
Taking a pinch every time you think of a cigarette is good practice. That worked for me.
Get a lot of varieties, and get so enthused about trying them all that you don’t have time to smoke, and eventually lose interest in it. Well, that’s what happend to me. It took about 6 months to work my way down to almost no smoking at all, but if I was trying, it might have been quicker.
My computer table has turned into a Snuff repository! 15 tins accumulated in the last month and a half alone. Small Potatoes(!!) compared to Xander’s collection, but not bad for just slightly over six weeks with a tiny budget. 
It will get there, Mr_Snuffy. I snuffed the same 5 snuffs for about 2 years. Then I went wild. After I make my next Nicotine Rush order, I’ll be pushing 320, not including doubles and triples.
Thanks, guys! I should have mentioned, I’ve been snuffing casually for a few months now, so my technique’s halfway decent. So harsher snuffs are fine, I just have to quit immediately. Got pneumonia with the asthma complications and nearly got sepsis and died, so, well … yeah. Anyway, thank you all for responding so quickly!
If it’s nicotine you are looking for: Rooster Standard Quit SP Extra NTSU Taxi Red
Ouch! Not good is an understatement. Glad you’re on the mend!
Ach! My collection is small potatoes next to Cstokes’, Leman’s, Ermtony’s, and, well just about everyone who’s been here longer than me. These do have a tendancy to grow on you, though. Kind of like, “How did this many clothes hangers get in my closet?” thing.
I’m going to have to recommend snus as well. Snuff has drastically cut my cigarette habit (at least when at home with my entire snuff collection only an arms length away) from almost 30 cigs a day to 5-10 . What really got me off them for some time was snus and snuff together. Snus gives you a continuous stream of nicotine , so you never feel the craving , and the snuff gives you that little “boost” that makes it somewhat similar to the first drag off a cigarette. Now maybe this is only valid for some , i mean I’m a regular nicotine fiend and go bonkers if i don’t have my dose , especially during finals :). At the moment I’ve relapsed into smoking while still snusing and snuffing because of the said exams , I’ve got one tomorrow! But I’m confident i can just forget about the cigs as soon as I’m done with them and get myself some more General ES portioned snus. That being said there’s nothing like being able to take a pinch and pop in a portion during an exam while looking at the rest of the smokers all sweating out due to the stress and lack of nicotine. I’ve been able to replace my nicotine source and didn’t feel the need for a smoke , but i still relapsed due to the habit of smoking like a a turk when studying. Snuff and snus will make it a lot easyer for you , and since you’re highly motivated due to medical reasons i’m sure you’ll succeed. Good luck!
I’d suggest FUBAR, both the Grunt and R&R varieties. I also concur on the Toque Quit and Rooster. While the names are annoying, they are nevertheless nicely-flavored nicotine-laden products.
My collection isn’t all that huge! It’s just that over the years I’ve gone through a lot of different snuffs… 
You can see on my Snuff Stash page just how many I no longer have on hand. They’re the ones in italics.
@ ermtony: I count 161 varieties “on hand” if your inventory is up to date. Plus, a lot of those you have in bulk. So you have less different ones on hand than me, but you probably have more snuff overall. It stands to reason that over time after trying so many, you concentrate on your favorites. I think you must give a lot away too… sorry to hijack your thread, Valeriana
I´ve also had a pneumonia about 6 weeks ago, so I´ve dropped the cigarettes just the same day and didn´t look back a single minute. Tbh, I couldn´t have made it with snuff alone. I´d picked up snus about 3 weeks prior to it, to reduce smoking, to better get the snuffs. So I was lucky as far as it concerns the nicotine source replacement thing. I guess it highly depends on the amount of cigarettes you are smoking. There are alot of people who quit smoking with snuff, so of course it must be possible. Well, I stopped smoking for a year without any replacement, so it´s possible to stop anyway. 
Snus just did it for me. You don´t waste a thought about cigs when you take a snus bag and you can leave it and get flavour and nic for about 2 hours, making it very economical and effective. Had about 5 bags a day in the beginning and around 3 these days. The more I use snuff, the less I use snus. Depending of course on how much nicotine you absorb from a certain snuff. Toque´s and Dholakia´s are pretty effective in nic and taste great.
I must warn you. There is a hidden danger in snuff! Making your own snuff collection is more addictive than smoking. The more snuffs you try, the more you want to try. If you like snuff, you will forget about cigs faster then you think. Welcome to the new exciting world of snuff!
Snus was my preferred quit smoking technique. BUT I couldn’t completely quit using snus alone. Snuff was the final straw. I snussed and then used snuff to kill the cig cravings. When I first started snuff I did 4-6 pinches a day. Now I have adjusted to loving snuff and use it instead of snus sometimes. I recommend QWS Smokers Blend/natural, Toque Quit and SP Extra for the big cravings. Everything else for the other cravings. I am gravitating to the SP or natural flavors.
The amount of support that has poured in so quickly truly overwhelms me. This is an amazing community, that I am thrilled to be a part of.
I would agree with some here that if you are stopping smoking suddenly, you may want to keep some snus or dip in your back pocket for the hard times (while you suppliment with snuff) . I still do this from time to time when I know I may have the urge to smoke. A couple cigs for me and I’m climbing back on the conestoga wagon! My Dad always told me it’s not hard to quit smoking- walk over to the garbage and drop them in-yea, he never smoked! But if you start out hitting yourself hard with the high nic snuff and suppliment with snus if you feel you must and just do this when you crave a cigarette, I believe you will succeed! Watch out for when you start to feel better health-wise. For me ,that was always when I went back to smoke. Keep smilin and keep your nose full!!! Good luck…
