Howdy yall, new to snuffin and new to the forums. Picked myself up a can/tin/whatever yall call it of WE Garret and songs scotch and another of sweet snuff 4 or so days ago. I’m liking it so far, more accessible than smoking with college, and less off putting to some people than dip. Love the sensation and the quick nic fix, though Id appreciate a pretty smell if thats ever offered in snuff. My only complaint is after taking, I dont know, 4-6 sniffs over a period of probably 2-3 hours, my nose gets a bit boogered up. Is there a brand/type that doesnt cause that so much, or is that just part of the game? And is there any that dont clog that also smell nice?
Only a few hundred. I never had got a clogged nose using 6 Photo Anarkali ,6 P Kailash ,6P Special all black slightly mentholated exotic Indian Snuff. Some menthol snuffs cause me to have rebound congestion. If you don’t want to order from overseas. Our own Chef Daniels makes some wonderful snuff. Old Mill is the brand.
You can scent your scotch if you like. Put snuff in a container with a lid. stick just the outer color skin of some citrus fruit lemon ,lime ,orange etc in with the snuff it will pick up the scent and add a bit of moisture to it in the process.You also can raid the misses food extract stash; I like McCormick coffee extract ,pure Vanilla extract etc.You can add drops direct or indirectly. You can buy essential oils and put it on a piece of qtip place that in the container.Usually Overnight will give best results; there are many other things you can scent snuff with I had listed them here at snuffhouse.
So like just take some peel and stick it in the can?
You could stick it in the can, but you might have better luck dumping the snuff in a mason jar, sticking the peel(s and other flavors) in there, shake up the jar, leave it a couple weeks, then you can take out the peel and decide if the snuff goes back in the can, or keep it in the airtight jar to preserve freshness (you can ration out maybe a daily dose to a little snuffbox or small canister to take with you during the day).
Everyone’s nose reacts a bit differently. For instance, I love Viking Dark, but I can’t use it continuously, or I get all clogged up in my noggin. On the other hand, WE Garrett Sweet snuff clears me right up up. I can use WE Garrett all day, and hardly have to blow my nose. Clean as a whistle for some reason. So, I alternate Viking Dark and WE Garrett, with the Viking clogging me up a bit (but I love that stuff anyway) and the WE Garrett coming in and clearing me up. But, that’s my nose.
Over time, you’ll figure out what works in your nose. And, the good thing is, you get to snuff a bunch in order to figure it out. :-)

I guess i should had specified a separate container to dump your scotch into, also you don’t want any of the white peel in the snuff it may cause mold to develop.Just use a vegetable peeler to remove just the color of the citrus of your liking. I would just do enough snuff for a few days, just incase it is not to your liking, You don’t waste the entire tin. Fresh Mint leaf and fresh fragrant flowers will also give a nice scent .
Do not use any cologne or perfume to scent your snuff it may be hazardous to your health. If using essential oils make sure you research them. I know wormwood is a neurotoxin and exposure will cause permanent brain damage.
