The only thing that stops me from wanting to order that box is all the apricot. For some reason I’m pretty sure I won’t like any apricot snuff. Oh, since the bullets are larger than most others, do they give a larger dose as well?
No, you’re gonna have to work with it to suit your needs. No biggie though, I did it with a metal bullet. I just used continually larger screw drivers and worked it out the way I wanted. Plastic should be much easiar though.
I didn’t really worry what the flavors were, I was disinterest in the smokers blend to be quite honest. But they come in their own little cardboard case, with a bullet a refill and a hanky. It makes a perfect little gift. Im going to give an apricot… and which ever other one he’d like. Really, I paid basically 3 bucks for each one. No skin off me for my brother.
Actually, I just paid attention and relooked through the box. There are 2 10g apricots, but 4 ice cool kits, and 2 smokers blend kits. No apricot kits.
trying to decide between Q Natural and Grunt. Haven’t got into the scotches yet, but I love toasts. I am still a newb. Is there a big difference between these two? I figured these two would be my best bet for now because it sounds like the grind of Sparrow might be something I want to try after I’ve used some scotches.
Not had the Q, but I can vouch for Grunt, indeed each of the Fubar range, as being excellent. Grunt is fine, dryish and has a flavour - coconut - that some people get and some don’t, so interesting for that fact alone. God powerful snuff with as much nicotine as you will ever need.
The Dholakia traditional Indian snuffs - not the contract brands like Wow and what have you - are like ultra toasts, very fine and penetrating but very good if you have the technique. Things like Sparrow Cool have a light menthol touch. Most menthols have the medicating ingredients by the shovel full but this is a nice light one, not many are.
Ok, if I remember right, Quit natural, Fubar, Sparrow, and Rockit Naked, are all the same grind and base tobacco, with Quit, Naked and Fubar being oiled. Dave chimed in and added that Fubar had musk added. All of the Wow products are also the same base, flavored. These are all Dholakia snufffs spun off the Sparrow grind and tobacco base. Kissing cousins.
I think I’ll try the Q natural first, thx guys
@cakeanddottle- I strongly suggest trying both of those to get the subtle differences, small changes in Grunt makes for a very good scent, to me. They are both quality tobacco snuffs that will not be a waste to try. I think that they are both well worth experiencing. Small price to pay for a good snuff lesson in the subtleties of snuff blending.
I would, but I’m trying to squeeze a 260g Grand Cairo and another 260g IHT in my cart
@cakeanddottle - Whatever they put in Fubar Grunt has affected the part of my olfactory mind to the extent that I crave this one and hoard it excessively. My little Rat mind jumps on the Grunt lever every day, and it never fails to give that certain little burn and then a flood of endorphins. It does to me what Grand Cairo does to Cstokes. So feel free to disregard my biased nicotine besotted ravings ( more grunt for me )!
Ah! A dilemma that! Enjoy those fine bulks! The bulks are so sexy and really opens up a whole nother world of freshness. I have had some wonderfull dips into all my bulks, still do. I was struck by just how fresh the snuff can stay in bulk.
There is something about Fubar that does make you hoard, thats a fact.
There is something about tobacco period that makes me hoard!
True, very true.
It’s the excitement when it arrives, I become 10 years old again. MY two beautiful jars of WoS sherry and Irish are sitting on my shelf looking gorgeous.
I thought I had a quite serious tobacco hording problem until Oscarwabbit came along and put it into perspective.
I seriously hoard pipe tobacco, so the hoardIng of tobacco comes naturally :)
Me too! Multiple tins bags/pouches of pipe tobacco. Some years’ worth.
When Wilson’s had the blowout half price sale, this occurred just as PACT was going into effect in the US, I took it it as a sign from “Whomever” and ordered so much that I had to place three separate orders. I was able to get 260 g of all my favorites, and 450g of “special” snuffs. All of the tubs were double taped, double vacuum sealed, and have been stored in the dark at 60 degrees. They are all still as perfect as I got them, and spooning out 50 grams for use at a time is heavenly. I was a little freeked at all the snuff, but the snuff was an absolute bargain. I treasure this horde of fine snuff.
