I’ve been trying out Toque Cherry. One thing I’m noticing is that there isn’t much of an urge to blow my nose to clear the snuff from it. In fact, I’m quite comfortable with the snuff in all the time. Often I don’t realize it’s there except for occasionally noticing the tobacco or cherry scent. I go back to the tin every so often to freshen up. Do others have a similar experience, either with Toque or other snuffs?
Yeah, I do that sometimes, especially with Toques. Usually I take large enough doses the first time to prevent any more room in my nose. But, yeah, I’ve chain snuffed a few tins like that. The reason I emphasized Toque is because some of their flavors have a food-like quality to me. They stimulate my taste buds more consistently than other brands. I suspect I’m gulping some drainage and not even noticing where the snuff is vanishing to.
I do that alot. Snuff no longer clogs me up unless it’s some really moist, coarse, dark snuff. There’s some days I blow my nose like once or twice only. Sometimes I do it like 20! The nose knows.
I can leave most snuffs in except American Scotches. They make my nose run and if I don’t blow they drip.
Yeah, especially if my technique is right. I only blow my nose in the shower.
I’m having less trouble on technique with the Toque than I do my homemade snuff. Toque is super fine grind in comparison, but it feels like a bit on the moist side. I’ve not hit my throat yet with it.
I feel like coarser snuffs are kind of difficult to master when you’re just getting your technique right. They’re less likely to end up in your throat, but you have to sniff harder to get them to the sweet spot. I learned on medium grind/moisture.
I use SPs (mostly Best) 99% of the time and never have to blow my nose. I have to ‘clean out’ occasionally, but thats dry rather than wet (sorry, sounds disgusting). If I use anything moist or course, I do have to wipe but I cant remember the last time I had to blow, and I snuff on average once every 20 minutes or so.
With SP, toasts or american scotches i can go all day long without having to blow. With others (like Schmalzers of course or more moist and coarse snuff) i have to blow within a few minutes after the pinch.
I completely agree with @koba22 b/c I mostly use SPs as well and NEVER have to blow but like twice a day! If I’m doing moist, coarse snuffs however, I most CERTAINLY end up blowing my nose. Sometimes just a few minutes after taking it!
