I’ve tried high nicotine snuffs now and no matter how much I cram up my nose I don’t feel a buzz or nothing? I feel relaxed enough to cut my cigars down but the vitamin n is definitely low from snuff it seems!

I’ve felt the nicotine at times - usually when I get an order of new snuffs in, and I rip into them like a kid on Christmas.  But as someone who uses dip, I usually don’t feel any nicotine from snuff.  Uncle Squinty refers to a throb in the nose that indicates nicotine presence - I don’t really get that.  I have cut my chewing down about 50% without thinking about it, so maybe the snuff is giving me more nicotine than I realize.  Also, if I hit the tins hard before bed I tend to be a little too wired to fall asleep.  That’s about all I know about snuff’s Vit N.  I’d guess people who only use snuff get it.

If it’s the nicotine buzz you are after, what I have noticed a lot of people doing is cutting some Toque Rustica into their snuffs to add a little oomph.

@SeanOCDPx that’s what I was figuring, I’m glad I’ve reduced my cigar habit to save some cost and time. I Should have known since I can smoke 8-10 full strength cigars in a day and not blink an eye. Only a hand full of cigars has ever given me a big rush

I’m new to the spicy snuff, and I got some FUBAR Doolali Tap.  This… I don’t know what it is… something about the spicy feeling in the nose makes me feel something different.  I don’t know if it’s nicotine, or just the eye opening experience of spiciness in the nose.  I just took some, and I am like… ready to go!  

@cpmdill… that’s good advice for people that don’t know about it.  It took me three months of being on the snuff-internet to discover you could buy straight Toque Rustica.  I’m excited to add it do some of my nice, but low nic snuffs.

@SeanOCDPx

I just did that the other day trying some Xmas Pudding, F&T HDT and Viking Blonde. After like 10 minutes I was sweating, giddy and wide awake lol.

Must be you…

I don’t take a pinch for a buzz!

What is a buzz? I use tobacco to make the world a safer place. It keeps the inner Hulk at bay.

The “buzz” I’m referring to is the nice mild state of euphoria one can achieve from the nicotine dose from a good cigar, or smoking a nice pipe bowl, where you just feel your entire body relax. @basement_shaman I definitely get where you’re coming from, I get very irritable without my nicotine, but it seems to me that snuff in general can only maintain just keeping the beast at bay, not putting it to bed lol

@cpmcdill thanks for the advice, I think I’ll give that a try

I use snus as well as snuff, and have a snus in my mouth nearly all the time.  So, my tolerance is pretty high, and I don’t really get a strong buzz from snuff.  But, I don’t really get a strong buzz from snus either.  For me, nicotine is an on-going effort to self-medicate some calm and clear-headedness into my life.  It makes bad things not seem so bad, and makes stressful situations just sort of fade to the background.

Back when I smoked cigars more, I used to get the buzz.  But, now I’m just maintaining some serenity with the snus and snuff.  I’d cut down on the snus in favor of the snuff, but I’m fairly used to the constant flow of nicotine that snus provides.  Its hard for me to return to periodic nicotine.

@markstinson very well put Mark. Honestly if I was rich enough to throw time and money away I’d smoke cigars all day long The very best of them give me a small sense of euphoria, much greater than just the mere calm. I admit I like and crave that euphoria! But being that I’m not rich and a working fella I’m definitely pleased that I’ve been able to cut my expensive cigar habit back. I figured it wouldn’t hurt to throw this OP out there to see if maybe I was missing snuffs that might rival my great cigars in quality and effect. Now don’t get me wrong I have definitely hit quality! I’ll continue in my use of snuff, but I still have a lingering hope of finding my desired level of effect

I have not tried mixing the rustica in, but from everything I’ve heard, that’s your best shot at it. Mark

TPS Madras to me smells like a unlit cigar. It also delivers some stronger than normal nicotine.

The only time I have experience a Buzz is the first hit of Dokha .If you want to try it they are buy one get one free until the end of September.You have to be sitting down the buzz is that powerful. They used to carry Thuoc Lao tobacco which is a Vietnamese strain of rustica also will knock your socks off.

Try some toque rusticia… That will make you have a buzz. Recently I have been using a lot of snus incorporated with my snuff habit. Once I feel that burn and the pulsing in my nose I know the nicotine is adiquate. Once you use nicotine for a certain amount of time you won’t get that narly buzz its sad.

Thank you guys for your feedback and suggestions

I’ll definitely give them a try.
