So my next order I think I want to try an Indian Snuff offering. What would be a good place to begin with Indian brands? Ken
Six photo and dholakia are favourites. 6 photo Kailash is a staple in snuff taking. And #66 medicated I have recently fallen in love with. Nice menthol and nicotine. Some of the dholakias are very fine and can be off putting to a new user. Swiss chocolate is good, as well as kamal and Ganga have a special place on my shelf. Try some sparrow and sparrow cool, once you get used to them you’ll be glad you have them. They regularly are in my rotation.
I go thru some 6 photo special. Best with a spoon, very dark and messy to pinch,Anarkali, Motia and Kailash fall into this same category. I suggest the 25 gram bundle, The cheeta is the whitest and is a challenge the super chetak is #2 ,natural is also light but not as challenging. 6P medicated is just that 6,66 and 666 strong in the menthol vapors for clearing action,they just came out with COFFEE KICK. and I asked CS @MrSnuff to get some in. As for Dholakia they make QWS ,Fubar, She,Temptation, Wow, Blast, Taj, and their regular line. I suggest QWS to start out with. D White is the most challenging then sparrow and sparrow cool, ganga. and the toasts. The rest of the line is not as challenging. Enjoy the journey
I think I feel more confused now… hehehehe
If you get on with scotches most Indian snuffs should be no problem. if your going for high nicotine hit- 41 photo White elephant ,Dholakia White and 6 photo cheeta. What are your preferences ? 6 Photo is all Exotic India .
Well let’s see, I tend to like SP’s, some menthol, but light, like Crumbs of Comfort light menthol. Scotches and toasts are good as well. What I tend to not like is typically florals. Ken
That bundle seems like a good deal to start with. Ken
I am very fond of Six Photo Anarkali, it is menthol-rose-floral and very refreshing to me.
If you like lightly mentholated snuffs and toasts and scotches you may like Sparrow Cool. It’s very fine, the menthol is very light and it has a good nicotine level too.
I agree with the 6 Photo bundle, but also with the Jewels of the East as well.
Sparrow cool seems interesting to me.
do not know if it is available, but highly scented (Jasmine?) Swami is great and good to blend with. The most highly scented I have tried in my young snuff career. Of course one never knows if the scent is favorable or not… :(|)
As bundles go I think I like the Jewels of india better… at least on the surface… Ken
KAILASH IS A MUST!
NIИ… you are so messing up my bundling with stuff like that… Ken
Just buy all the Indian snuff you can. You will use it up eventually Edit; Can = afford .
Whilst I cannot deny that logic… I am also a cheapskate… I mean that is part of the snuff appeal to me… Ken
Got the 6 photo sampler, more COC and added WOS Honey Menthol to try. I did slightly chicken out and only got the 8g 6 photo sampler. Ken
My order from Snuffstore arrived today, 45g Kailash, 35g Natural, 25g Special and 6g Super Kailash. Only ever had Anarkali before and that didnt agree with me, but these are amazing! So glad I bought the 45g of Kailash, absolutely amazing snuff. Can see it being an all day-er.
So my sampler arrived. Tried them all. I got the 6p 8g sampler. Not noticing big differences between the 4 little containers of snuff. And hard to discern which is which. So some observations: 1. Indian snuffs offer very unique flavor combinations, this is good, I like how the medicated portion of it is light hint that balances well. 2. The containers plain suck. And I mean really suck. 3. The throat drip is harsher than expected should it occur. 4. I find them messier than expected. Overall these are good. Based on this though I think the next Indian snuff I will try will probably be Sparrow Cool. Ken
