I currently have an assortment of 20 varieties of snuff, and just ordered another 15. My wife seems to think the 20 different snuffs was too much (she doesn’t use snuff). How many different kinds do you keep on hand?
I currently have about 130 different varieties on hand. A bit out of control no doubt, but I like having a bit of everything around just in case somebody posts something about a particular snuff and it gives me the urge to have a pinch. Most of my snuffs are electrical taped shut, and stored in a ziplock baggie in a cool dark spot in my basement and I only visit them when I get that urge. I only keep about 10 snuffs upstairs at arms reach at a time, Right now they are in no particular order McChrystal’s O&G Toque Grapefruit Toque Cherry Toque St. Clements Toque Absinthe Spanish Jewel Rooster Magnet Spearmint Magnet Peach Wilson’s Prime Minister

I have around 30 different types in my stock.
I am the same as Roam, I have 25-30 varieties in my collection. Yeah in all honesty that probably is a bit much and I wish I hadn’t bought so much as i’m struggling to use it all! LOL

What you should worry about is too little snuff it’s a lot worse then too much.
I’ve got about 80 varieties. I’m not ordering more for quite a while, only my favourites when I run out.# Stefan
That’s what I’m trying to do at the moment, though I do seem to keep running out of the favourites! But the snuff mountain could do with some reduction.
In less than 2 months I’ve built my collection up to about 45 varieties, and counting with yesterday’s order. I’m gonna have to slow down here pretty soon though, the wife’s giving my collection the stink eye.
I have about 160 different snuffs but have around 200 total in the collection because there are some that I have 2 or 3 of. I’ve had great success in storing the snuff & keeping it fresh so I’m not worried about any going ‘stale’. I like to sample as many different snuffs as I can, its all part of the fun. And its a fairly cheap hobby when in comparison with other collecting and its not like I bought them all at once. And like Poo-Diddy, I like to keep these on hand because sometimes you get the urge for a certain snuff when someone starts talking about it and its great to already have it on hand. I would say you have too many when you run out of room to store the least used ones properly. Because you don’t want to build a collection just to let it go ‘stale’.

I like keep it pretty small myself but I figure if you are going to use it is not a waste.

fixin2, They both have good qualities in their own way. I do however tend to pinch the American styles more often as those are what I basically grew up on & they hit the spot. Levi Garrett & Rooster being two of my favorite snuffs. But there are plenty of international snuffs I use on a regular basis & thoroughly enjoy & make repeat purchases of. I like to mix it up so that I don’t get ‘burned out’ of any one particular snuff. Companies like Samuel Gawith, De Kralingse, Toque, Wilsons/F&T/Tranters, Dholakia all put out some great snuffs that I use regularly. Even Poschl has 2 or 3 that I like. Just depends on my mood.
32 diferant types with dupes of some. I started two months ago. I keep thinking each order will be the last of trying new flavors. Then I read this forum and I want to try more. I can see me ordering Dholakia and some American snuffs soon. Right now I have most of the standard pocshl and one of each Toque.

That is what I do when I have a snuff that is almost empty and not worth pinching from. Suprisingly it is never bad and sometimes makes a scent that seems impossibly amazing (like wow not only is that really good but it smells like jagermeister yet it was just three diffrent menthol snuffs).

bob that is what I do as well. But its never much that I put in, maybe 2-10 pinches at a time. Sometimes its just whats stuck in the bottom of tin when empty. I have a small glass jar/bottle that seals good that I have been putting snuff in for about 2 years now. I don’t put any menthol snuffs in this jar. The jar holds about an ounce & is about 1/2 full. Once the jar is 3/4 full I will let sit for another year or two before I use it. I have sampled it and its great with a flavor impossible to reproduce since I don’t keep track of which snuff & how much of each is in this jar. I haven’t shaken the jar yet so there are a lot of different layers of slight color difference kind of like a sand art bottle.
