Hi Ladies and Gentlemen, 

I’m new here and I’ve been deriving much gratification for reading all of your informative posts. So as to not make a redundant post for my first one, I’ve come up with a question I haven’t seen anyone address yet.

So here’s my first question for the forum.

As I cyclle through my snuffs of the day (Super Kailash, Dholakia White and Viking Blonde for today), sometimes I get a little clogged up; more than what a good hoot in my handkerchief can take care of. I’ve found that by taking a Schmalzer (Bernard Doppelt-Fermentiert today) higher up the congested nostril with the use of a straw, that within 1 or 2 minutes the nostril is clear and within 5-10 I’ve blown the nostril completely clear.

So I’m curious, does anybody else use Schmalzers this way, as a nasal expectorant after getting caked up with drier snuffs?

Schmalzlers work, as do mentholated schmalzlers (probably better than plain), as do South African snuffs. For me, first thing in the morning clog can be obliterated with American scotches or Whites.

Thanks Zanaspus,

I find that mentholated snuffs, schmalzers or otherwise, give a temporary sensation of decongestion, but ultimately the menthol seems to irritate in the long run and then there’s a clogging again straight away after the cooling sensation dissapates. The plain schmalzer actually seems to flush everything out.

When using the whites to clear your morning clog, do you snuff ordinarily, or higher up into the nostril as I described?

@patbastien Any way I can get in in there, lol. I tend to have some nasty morning clogs, so getting it in the nostril anywhere via any method is good enough. 

Welcome aboard. :-h I’ll simply have a mug of hot tea or two. The steam and more importantly the extra fluids are normally all that’s needed for me to clear everything out. Next step if that doesn’t solve it, is for me to use a coarse SG snuff (and another mug of tea) to get extra juices flowing to help flush the system, and last resort is menthols to open up the passages (knowing there’ll be a rebound congestion afterwards).

FUBAR bohica is like the pipe snake of the snuff world if you want to try that:)

Schmalzlers make my nose bleed :[

SG St. Elmos gives some decent forward drip.  Hedges L260 is my morning sinus clearing toot.  I think the menthol cools, and some of the other medicated scents work also - combined - by the time I get done brushing my teeth, a nose blow clears things pretty well.

Zanapspus thank you for your suggestions.

They work like a charm
