Ok now maybe I am starting this discussion all over again - but I have to mention and ask this. I stopped smoking since quite some hefty weeks when I began to use snuffs. I love most of the variety but recently (since I mastered the technique), I seem to favor the Indian whites (6 photo cheeta and dholakia white) more and more. Initially I used to get a slight buzz with just one pinch, but now, even at work I can have 5-6 small pinches in two hours and not get a buzz. The other snuffs are there but mostly for the complexities of their fragrances and taste. Am I in a dangerous state of increasing my nicotine tolerance to a point where I will feel terrible withdrawals if I dont have snuffs which are high in nicotine?
I see quite some of you use Indian whites. How is it for you? How often do you use them? Do you feel like mostly using the whites for your nic satisfaction? How do you balance this? Please advise.
In order to keep getting a nicotine “rush”, you’ll need to constantly up your doses. It’s a slippery slope.

Nicotine uptake from snuffing will increase with regular snuff use. The spike in nicotine uptake is where the rush is so your holding out will certainly help. Other tobacco use will moderate spiking so snuffing on top will not be as effective. Otherwise snuff is one of the best ways to achieve spiking.
@Juxtaposer - How much would you say (or question is open to others too) of Cheeta or DW or WE would you use per day (on a regular basis) to see your tolerance doesn’t sky rocket?
Because the spike in nicotine is so sharp from snuffing (think a spike on a graph) it would be hard to recognize levels of tolerance using this method of nicotine ingestion alone as symtoms like the hiccups etc. rarely occur.
this is kind of off topic but it woke up in the middle of the night last night and smoked a pipe and wow. i got a huge nic high. that doesnt happen very often after 15+ years of using tobacco. strange
Just took a pinch of sws latakia blend and had a nicotine buzz, but i find it more like a tobacco and its alkaloids buzz. I advise you to use an e cigarette with no tobacco consumption for a day or a week. Then take a pinch of snuff and you ll feel the tobacco buzz straight away and you ll find out this feeling is not only due to nicotine but all the constituants of the plant. You can try mixing essential oil as Well to try and recreate the effects of tobacco without nicotine intake.
