To avoid making a mess when I’m snuffing I position a newspaper on my lap to catch the snuff “offcuts.” Looking at the small heap of snuff I have I front of me I’m tempted to take a pinch. There’s Zwiefacher, Brasil Doppelt-Fermentiert, SWS Creme de Figue, Viking Dark, F&T High Dry Toast and Old Paris, and WOS Irish Toast No 22… I just had a go, and not bad to be honest, though my right nostril disagrees.

I let m ‘offcuts’ act as carpet freshener.

I used to practice in front of the mirror to help my fingers find my nostrils. Now I don’t have to and have little to no waste at all. Worth a try

they all go into the carpet, followed by the hoover if done over anything other than shower (i use most snuff in my morning shower).

I have a white carpet in my bedroom (I didn’t pick it! but I have to admit it’s quite nice) so it’s ok with Dholakia White etc but not so good with dark course snuffs. I normally have to stand over the bin or hobble over there after.
