Quit my job, rearranging the Scotch/bourbon/fishing/snuff cave, and revisiting some High Mill N0.1 and original batch Fubar Grunt.Have not said hello since the new host move. How is everybody and what have I missed? Just placed an order for 4 cans of McCrystal’s Stammheimer Hopfen Schnupf and more High Mill.
@Whalen New line of artisan snuff. Thanks Hitsuzen for the OSP Many snuffs on the line for axing New custom specialty Toque snuff These are just a few things you may have not know about.
What is up with the axing? Demand? Or some regulation?
I am reading back into the archives to get up to speed. I have so many 1lb bulk snuffs that I have not needed to buy any for years. I did notice many missing at Mr Snuff.
New EU regulations regarding flavoring and labelling. Adding a unreasonable tax that manufacturers can’t afford to pay to keep many flavors of snuff in production.
Great!!! They just cannot resist can they! My whole time with snus and snuff someone is Nanny state-ing what should be my right to chose my poison. Sad, EU, don’t get me started…! Sorry for the mini rant. Maryland will not allow me to order any tobacco domestically. PACT act.
@Whalen Same here in Washington state. Lucky enough to get from across the pond. O but I can buy a pound of any variety of marijuana in my state with no issues but can’t get a few gram of tobacco. WTF!

that hopfen schnupf is awesome but it plugs me up like crazy.
Hold on a second, what is McChrystals Stammheimer Hopfen Schnupf? I though I have tried all of the McC’s range though I have not come across this snuff, where did you buy this? And what scent does it have?
@Aamon, it is McChrystal’s hops flavored snuff. It will come in the sample pack.
You can order them from McChrystals straight, and free shipping.
If you want bigger tins of the flavors, you can email Ian McChrystal, he told me there will be a new site up soon.
ahhhhhh yeah! Thank you yisraeldov I tried this in a sample tin about a year ago, I thought it was called McChrystals Hops :(|)
@Aamon, it is. Stammheimer Hopfen Schnupf, is German for Hop Snuff. Don’t know what Stammheimer is.

Stammheimer might be were the hops are grow? Someone here should have a more definite answer I would think.
Don’t even get me started on the restrictions within India - of any chance of trading or sending / receiving snuff. It is not difficult, but time consuming and difficult I must say.
So it is just Hops now? I have a group of Brewer’s who are strung out on Hops snuff, it is a very good SP IMHO. I keep 6 or so 25g cans vacuum sealed for them, opened the last one yesterday and decided to order more. Came back here to say hello and got whipsawed by the EU news.
I still have deep scars over PACT act and Maryland tobacco restrictions. Brings out the reactionary Texan in me.
I have always been a hoarder, and have 20 or so pounds of WOS and a pound or so of Fubar original Batch left. Lots of my WOS are on the discontinued list, so trading will get interesting. I have found vacuum packing will work for most snuffs, but not all. Discontinuing Grand Cairo is a sin!
Hell of a lot of info to process here, been back reading since yesterday. I can only offer condolences to all my industry friends…!

Would like the complete history. Made several SP hops snuff myself with disasterious results.

@basement_shaman …Hey buddy! Sorry for disappearing. Job with over 4 hour commute took me away. I told them to shove it last month.
@n9inchnails - I add WOW CT to the original batch, loves me some Coconut. The original Batch is the one to try to duplicate. Never regretted hoarding that one.
