IPCO Snuff: Does anyone know anything about this?

This is perhaps OT since strictly not a nasal snuff, but we tend to talk about snus etc, so I’m posting in Snuff Types. I’m wondering if anyone has tried these and what their availablity is outside India. Perhaps Namrata knows something about them? This one looks like a proper snuff:IPCO Snuff This one is toothpaste: IPCO Creamy SnuffRead some of the opinions too, kind of funny. I want to try both. Maybe they will cure my gum recession :wink: I tried filling out the contact form, but got an error message. I may try the email next and ask for samples. For all I know this may be stocked in the local Indian grocery store. Anybody have any input on this?

They are both meant for oral use. You can find more discussion on this forum about this by searching the word ipco under comments. Maybe if you use some on your gums you can gargle with Tobacco Liqueur

I knew you would know something Trout! Yes, I see there has been some previous dicussion. I did a search right after posting this. This is the last time I start a new post without doing a search first! :-/ (maybe) Anyway, still don’t know how to get it. Mr. Snuff said he could obtain it. Why not sell it on his site? Will there never be an end to the creative ways to get nicotine into our bodies?

I remember talking about this. Wierd stuff, not sure if I could handle it.

Wow, I really want to try that perique liqueur! Bookmarked for when it is back in stock.

Unfortunately the Perique liqueur is nicotine free, wouldn’t stop me from trying it but the price tag might.

Looks like a two a…person job there, have to be real careful who you smoke with for sure.

…very interesting. Go to the website and click on “opinions” to see the remarks. I appears that the product is a cure all. I wonder if it works for hemroids too?

@ NickKick: What do you use for this bruhing method? A regular toothbrush? I take it you use American dry snuffs for this purpose. I’ve tried rubbing with finger and a short stick a few times. I’m wondering if there is a more effective way of doing this.

Reading the opinions and the descriptions, this very much reminds me of the cure all “snake oil” types of medicines they used back in the old west, except they used alcohol instead of tobacco and natural things.

All of the original Dholakia snuffs can be taken orally as well. And the Manjul can also be used as a tooth powder.

I wonder how good tobacco is for your teeth too since there’s a substantial bit of sugar, in the Virginia blends at least. Don’t know that you’d want to keep this stuff marinating on the teeth for too long after a brushing. I bet it would give you a good little buzz in the morning though, perfect start for the hangover-helper regimen.

@NickKick- I’ve had those tobacco mints. They’re not too bad. Over time I got really tired of them, and they really didn’t take care of my Nic needs, unless I ate one after another. Plus, they are super cheap, averaging $1.50 each.

Very intersting NickKick. Can you post a picture. I tried brushing with Tops Sweet the other day, with a toothbrush. It genetated a lot of saliva! More than I would get from dipping the other way. Yes, I know it goes on the gums, not the teeth. Also how much liquid in the glass with the tobacco?

tea is really good for your mouth I’ll definatly try that for sure

I’m reviving this to ask if anyone ever did get hold of some IPCO Creamy Snuff. I am really intrigued with this. I guess I just need to try everything at least once. Is this obtainable in North America or not?

I had some. Had 2, traded one to a member here, haven’t seen him post in a while, and another to someone on snuson. It’s an odd thing. I really don’t think it would appeal to anyone here. It comes in a toothpaste like tube, and is very dark jell like cream. I read mostly women in India use it. But the way it’s used, based on what I read any my trying of it, is you put some on your finger, and them rub your gums with it, wait about 5 mins or so, and then rinse your mouth out. The taste is not bad, cool mentholly, but I just found it impractical and maybe only did it 3 times before it sat for a long time untouched. I can’t recommend it. I think the curiosity would end up like it did with me. You’d try it once or twice and never again. It wasn’t “bad”, just the implementation of it, I found, to not be very user friendly, or practical.
