How much nicotine is in the normall and strong snuffs? I am wondering because I smoke just under a pack a day usually of all different kinds of tobacco I buy online. WHen I sniff something like Ozona Cherry I don’t notice any nicotine at all, when I sniff Rooster I notice it but it doesn’t really hit me like a good cigarettes can. Just wondering how to gauge some of the snuffs I have to a cigarettes.
Its reported that a pinch of dip held in the mouth for up to 30 minutes is equal to 2-3 cigarettes. I know there is a fact on dry snuff but I can’t remember where it was.

Part of the buzz experienced with smoking is that fact that you are altering the actual air your body needs to live, kind of like an asphyxiation buzz. I know when I’m up in the high country staying at the cabin which is around 9000 feet or up around some of the other lakes around the 9500-10,000 foot elevation, I get a nic rush very very very easily. Same goes with the effects of alcohol. So like with smoking when your body is starving for oxygen, nicotine has a greater effect.
Yeah, you are always going to get a bigger buzz from a cigarette, with the hot smoke and all plus don’t forget there have been a few thousand other chemicals isolated in various amounts in tobacco smoke that you aren’t getting with snuff - they are bound to have some kind of effect, probably any drug that gives you a buzz is also poisening you to an extent. Snuff is safer because it poisens you less I would have thought.
I find I get the biggest buzz from snuff or snus though when I used to smoke I used ryo mainly american spirits and I think that the chemical monkeying that tobacco companies do with cigerattes definately effects the way a person will react to nicoteen in the future.
In large amounts snuff will give you a decent buzz. But if I really want a buzz I’ll dip.
Well it was said that Marlboro had ammonia or something added to increase the nicoine uptake - Big Tobacco must have done a lot of shady things before the spotlight went on them
Im currently working my way through a tub of ‘Taxi Extra Strong Red Snuff’ give it a go if you want a noticeble nicotine hit. 
Stu90, do you take any other forms of nicotine such as ciggerettes? Just wondering what you would compare the nicotine hit to. Also how much do you take before it hits you? Any other of the weaker brands do the same thing to you?
Bespoke G&T is a good uplifting energy snuff. It always wakes me up and gives me a little energy and alertness.
Where is that stuff sold?
yes i smoke awell, around 10-15 filterd roll-ups a day - for me the Taxi has a nic hit like the fist ciggerette of the day, i take about a pea sized pinch for each nostral as its a very rough grind the nicotine hit is almost instant .Currently my everyday snuff is Wilson of Sharrow ‘Crumbs of Comfort’ also have some ‘Gold Label’ on the go as well, while i find the Gold Label a little bit stronger than the Crumbs of Comfort these don’t really give me a noticeable nicotine hit. I got the Taxi Extra Strong Red Snuff online from mysmokingshop
You can get Bespoke Gin & Tonic at 2 places. Bespoke @ Snuff Store Bespoke @ Mars Cigars
here u go, http://www.smokeless.org.nz/nasalsnuff.htm, science really doesn’t cover it. eight second enormo nictoine hit from smoking, but snuff sure helps quiting 
Thanks for that article stl34, that is reallly interesting. What I got from it among other things is that a daily snuff users can reach the same if not more nicotine in his/her blood then a smoker can. What does confuse me is why is there such a big difference between a daily users and a occasional user. It seems the more you use snuff the better your body becomes at absorbing it. So a new user might not get the full effects as a long time user, but he/she will after time. Am I getting that right?

I’ve noticed two things that make me think useing snuff increase blood flow to the nose. First the longer I use it the more acute my sense of smell becomes which can happen with increased blood flow. I’ve also noticed that I get more kick out of pinch then I used too when I had started useing snuff.
You know I have only been using for a little while and the same thing has started happening to me as well. Today at work I had such a sense of smell, I was amazed. I was smelling different things, as well as being to pick out different smells. Weird but true.
