Hi I’ve tried most snuffs now and believe I have decided on my essential must have snuffs. I’m using up all my tins but I’ve got a year’s worth left at least. Still here are the snuffs I intend never to run out of: O&G - this is now inc’d in every rotation. Bruton Cheese & Bacon - such a masterpiece! Whisky & Honey - another masterpiece Camphor & Mild Natural Toast / HDT / IHT22 - love these equally L260 - I’m a big menthol fan Rooster Toque Cherry Menthol I like SPs and most fruity snuffs, but could live without them if I always had the above in stock. I know there’s a similar thread but limiting to 5 essential was too constraining for me. What’s on your essential list? List as many or as few as you wish.
Well seeing as how I only own 6 different snuffs, I’m only certain of three that I will be purchasing again in the future and they are WoS Prime Minister Molens Hollandse Bolongaro Toque Violet
I dont have all these at the moment but my faves are F&T HDT FUBAR Grunt IHT #22 D White Some indian

No ,I have not tried all that is available.I found no snuff is created equal.I know what I like and carry four snuff boxes at all time.I mix my favorites and so I can’t nail them down. As essentials; some come to mind poschl schmalzler, taxi red, molens latakia,These I must have the rest are desert and or purpose snuffs like Dr.Rumneys and red bull when I need a good clearing or molens metholate so cool and chocolate.They say variety is the spice of life and take time to smell the flowers I don’t know who they are,But I am sure happy with the horde of backy I sampled so far.I will have to start a list with snuff samplers with similar tastes as mine
I have very simple tastes. I do like something luxurious now and again but really I just use Quit all day long nowadays. I will make up a 1/2 pound jar of Quit and put an oz. or two of Rose or an Indian snuff in there. When I’ve used that I will make up another with a different tang to it. Aside from that I will have occasional blasts of HDT or Dholakia White or some Fubar (which I cringe to remember I slated when it came out). I love our domestic brands but some of the Dholakia types are, IMHO, examples of perfect snuffs.
Im pretty much still new but i have established a few essential. Toque Coke Toque Spanish Gem Toque W&H McChystals O&G Bernards Klostermischung (To be honest here, its essentially my before bath snuff. I take a big load… feel I’m in heaven and fantasize abt random stuff. 5 mins later, My nose will start running like a tap and i clear my nose squeaky clean from the inside out. haha)
WoS Best SP. If all other snuffs were banned, I wouldn’t cry.
I have found that my nose agrees more with fine grinds for long term use. I found that Dholakia is great for that, with White being my main go to snuff and one of their florals (Kamal or Ganga) to mix things up a bit. I could use just those 2 exclusively if I had to, but luckily I don’t and can enjoy much more.
O&G. I occasionally venture out of my Menthol Kingdom, but I always return.
Gawith Hoggarth’s Eucalyptus and Tom Buck
Here are some I wouldn’t want to be without: WoS Best Dark WoS Brunswick WoS Gold Label WoS Grand Cairo F&T Old Paris Hedges L260 Abraxas Gawith Apricot Plus a few more I may have forgotten…those are the biggies, though.
I’ve basically always had Gletscherprise on hand since I started…it was my first, and I still get in the mood for a two day-long binge. Dholakia sparrow and Toque W&H, for the same reason I keep GP. Any SP is my workhorse. I have over a half-pound of Tom Buck, and it does the trick. I guess I don’t have essential snuffs. I rotate, and use whatever I put into whatever snuff box I feel like carrying and use it until its gone, or I’m tired of it. Every couple of days I force myself to finish-off what’s in my boxes, which I don’t like doing, but I hate wasting snuff even more.
