Just thought I would post a list of all the Old Mill snuffs that I have tried, along with my personal ratings on a scale from 1 to 5. As you can see there are no losers here, and that is an amazing statement to make, when one thinks about it. The Old Mill snuffs are all good but some are extraordinary to be sure and are in the highest tier of quality that it is possible for snuff to achieve, imho. Daniel’s skill as a professional chef brightly shines in his snuff creations. Daniel has reached the pinnacle of snuff making, right there with Nigel of Abraxas and Johnny of Sir Walter Scott. That’s just my opinion of course, but there it is for what it’s worth. And I should add that Toque and Dholakia are not far behind, in my view at least. As for the ratings, they are just my preferences. Please remember that I do not like menthol or an excess of minty scents (although mint can be quite good in very small amounts) and this affects my ratings. I cannot make any claim that my ratings are superior to those of anyone else, they are just relevant to what I like personally. I don’t know if this list and the ratings will be of use to you but here it is and I invite your comments, disagreements, agreements, criticisms and what not. And I should add that I look forward to trying Daniel’s upcoming offerings. 1 Old Mill Snuff Acadia 10g--------------4.5 2 Old Mill Snuff Atchafalaya--------------4.5 3 Old Mill Snuff Black Ice 15g------------4.5 4 Old Mill Snuff Black Velvet 15g----------4 5 Old Mill Snuff Butternut Toast-----------5 6 Old Mill Snuff Cafe Brulot 10g-----------5 7 Old Mill Snuff Calypso------------------5 8 Old Mill Snuff Cherry Bomb 170g---------4 9 Old Mill Snuff Conundrum 10g-----------4 10 Old Mill Snuff Cuba Libre 15g-----------5 11 Old Mill Snuff Dreamcatcher 15g--------4 12 Old Mill Snuff Edible Arrangement 15g—5 13 Old Mill Snuff Ecrous Brulée-----------4.75 14 Old Mill Snuff Evangeline 10g-----------5 15 Old Mill Snuff Fire & Ice----------------4 16 Old Mill Snuff Fleur de Cafe 10g---------4 17 Old Mill Snuff Greyhound 15g-----------4 18 Old Mill Snuff Limoncello--------------4.5 19 Old Mill Snuff Marlin Spike 15g----------4 20 Old Mill Snuff Melba Toast 15g----------5 21 Old Mill Snuff Mississippi Mud 15g-------4 22 Old Mill Snuff Mojito 15g---------------4 23 Old Mill Snuff Moulin Rouge 10g---------5*** 24 Old Mill Snuff Nocturne 10g------------4.5 25 Old Mill Snuff Noisette 15g-------------5 26 Old Mill Snuff Olde English Toast--------4.5 27 Old Mill Snuff Premiere 10g------------4.5 28 Old Mill Snuff Pumpernickel Toast--------4 29 Old Mill Snuff Pura Dominicana 20g------4.5 30 Old Mill Snuff Pure Virginia Toast 10g-----4 31 Old Mill Snuff Scarborough Faire 15g-----3.5 32 Old Mill Snuff Shandygaff 15g------------4 33 Old Mill Snuff Solstice 15g---------------5 34 Old Mill Snuff Southern Comfort 15g------4 35 Old Mill Snuff Spotted Dick 10g----------4.5 36 Old Mill Snuff Tempête 15g-------------4.5 37 Old Mill Snuff Tennessee Toast 15g-------4.5 38 Old Mill Snuff Toast & Jelly 15g----------4.5 39 Old Mill Snuff Yvette 15g---------------4.5
Thank you, Dam you have tried umm all pretty much and I know great a snuff they are (at least the the ones I have tried) … I really ought to try that Moulin Rouge I think, I feel an American order coming up…
How do you order from Old Mill Snuff? I’ve been to the website but I don’t see a way to order and I can’t find them on Mr. Snuff.
@snuffnstuff Daniel has his ad for Old Mill snuffs in the left hand column of just about every page in the Snuffhouse website. Look for the last ad and his email address is there. He likes direct contact with customers so email him with your questions: oldmillsnuff@gmail.com
I appreciate your effort but this does not help me to zero in on anything as they are mostly 4.5 or better. If I only I could just buy them all. Seriously though, when I do finally get around to another order chef is gonna get my $$.
@OleFactoryHugh that’s easy. If they are mostly 4.5 or better, then try the 5’s. But like I said there are no losers in Daniel’s list of snuffs and your experience will vary as always. Daniel is just flat-out great at making snuff. What can I say? But that list is all just my opinion anyway. I hope that one day you have your own re Daniel’s snuffs. Let us know…
@fredh, good point, that at least narrows it down some.
I’m still a novice but I was happy to see we agreed on Edible Arrangements and Noisette- 5. I disagree on Dreamcatcher. I give it a 5. I’ve been taking that snuff daily since it’s inception…guessing it’s been around 6 months >, and it only gets better and better. And I enjoyed it very much in the beginning. Dreamcatcher continues to be my favorite snuff. Too many others I feel I don’t know well enough to rate yet except for Premiere; also a 5 in my book. It looks like I’ve at least tasted 16 of Old Mill snuffs! Thanks to Daniel’s generosity with samples. @fredh the samples are a huge help in narrowing down the list. ::thumbs up::
@Valiant, thanks for your comments. I can easily see why you rated Dreamcatcher and Premiere at 5 each. They are great snuffs, no doubt about it.
I would personally upgrade Olde English Toast from a 4.5 to a 5. There is nothing else out there like it.
I wish someone could hook me up with some of Chef Daniels Dreamcatcher snuff and also the Edible Arrangements,Noisette,and Premiere.I would gladly appreciate it.I’ve tried almost all but 8 of dem.Can I please have a sample please @fredh I’m from Hawaii and I can hook u up with stuff from Islands like Kona Coffee,macadamia nuts etc… just lmk.I hope u can come through. Thanks for your time reading this. Peace and Aloha, Ryan
Hey @Hawaiian_Ryan I am in the midst of moving and almost all of my snuffs have been in boxes for months, including the ones you wanted. It’s a long story I will not bore you with but that is the truth of it. So sorry, but even I do not know where those snuffs are at this moment. :-S
