@bolbam420 Fire and Ice is a decent makla! I hope you will enjoy it. I advice using 1.5 g of product for one prilla (hard pressed bean-shaped ball). It delivers just the same as regular strength snus, or even a bit stronger. Waiting forward to try 6P Begum Pathani, too.
You can order snus to India from these online shops:
With a very few exceptions, snus is unavailable in most countries, so ordering it online is the only way to procure it.
You can use northerner.com services, too. Shipping of one roll of snus is under EUR 10 there. You will find widest assortment of oral tobacco products there, Belgian maklas and American chew/dip including. Just donât forget to choose India as your country at the very top (right side). Northernerâs assortment differs for different countries.
@volunge Finally got to try Fire & Ice. Though the flavour will need some getting used to, it does pack quite a nicotine punch! This is the only oral tobacco I have had, other than IPCO creamy snuff and Chaini Khaini. The later literally sets the gums on fire. I really couldnt hold in my mouth for more than a few minutes and I dont intend to give it another try. I do like IPCO, I like the flavour and I like the gentle nicotine nudge it delivers. Would be awesome if there was a makla with similar flavour. I think I am going to like Fire & Ice and I will definitely be getting Begum Pathani in my next order with Six Photo.
Btw, today is day-11 of no cigs. I avoid hanging around with peeps during their cig breaks, not because I might be lured back but the smoke and smell is kinda off-putting. With such lovely aromas you get from snuff, cig smoke feels like snorting from an ash tray!
@bolbam420 Congrats! It wonât be harder than this with all those delicious and strong snuffs you got.
I didnât expect 6P F&I to be that sweet scented. I knew itâs not plain, but still it was a very pleasant surprise. I was used to the raw, rustic taste of Belgian maklas (Ifrikia, Bouhlel, Africaine), all (except lightly mint-scented El Kantara) unscented. They reek of ammonia and cut the gums like a razor. I find 6P Fire & Ice tastier and more user-friendly product of superior quality.
That IPCO sounds interesting. What is the true way to use it? I mean, do you spread some on the toothbrush and clean your teeth like with ordinary toothpaste, or just rub some cream to the gums with a finger? Is it safe to swallow, or one should spit it out after some minutes?
getting cig free with snus and snuff actually gets easier. Soon youâll find yourself acclimated and not wanting to reach for cigs. Or at least thatâs my experience. I wasnât even trying to quit cigs just trying to have something so I wouldnât have to go out side everyday time I wanted a smoke.
Thanks guys. I must admit that itâs been much easier for me than most people trying to quit. @volunge I actually got IPCO from a pharmacy and was told to use my index finger instead of a toothbrush to gently massage my gums with it for a couple of mins and leave it on for a few mins more. Rinse after that. You are supposed to spit like you would for any regular toothpaste, no swallowing at all. If you have high nic tolerance, it is possible that you might not notice the gentle kick it delivers. Still worth trying.
@thatotherguy Thank you! I am one of those lucky few who thankfully didnt have to put in too much effort. Almost overnight my taste buds kind of changed. Cig smoke smells dirty now and snuff obviously is an absolute delight.
@bolbam420 been cutting down heavily. Not really replacing the cigsâŚjust havent wanted one as often if that makes any sense. Bringin some snuffboxes to work todayâŚmy boss and coworkers already know what it is.
