I’ve been trying ‘Spanish Jewel’ from Toque all afternoon and I have to say, another great one from Roderick! If I was any good at reviewing, I certainly would, but as I suck when it comes to this, I’ll have to leave it up to all of you once you’ve had a chance to try it. Tom
I’m lost, what’s "spanish jewel’, did I miss something?

Sorry, I meant: “Did Roderick make a new flavor?” I’ve read the threads about spanish Jewel.
@bigblue - ??? I’m lost. @bakdoor - Great… now I have to make another order. EDIT: Is Spanish Jewel medicated at all? Have any flavor?

I revised my post so as not to step on any toes. BigBlue was kind enough to point it out to me. Yes, Roderick has made a really nice snuff in Spanish Jewel. And yes, it’s flavored, but as I mentioned, I’m lousy at reviewing. Maybe Roderick will jump in here and give some insight. Tom
I don’t think that the name Spanish Jewel should have been used for this Toque product or any other. That name is already assigned to a special snuff, a name that Pedro and I came up with for that great snuff. There can only be one Spanish Jewel. If you have to stick with the spanish theme, I think it would have been better to go with a name like Spanish Delight, Spanish Tradition or even Special Spanish or just Spanish.
I have my own little clay pot Spanish Jewel solera going myself. Remind me in about ten years or so. By then I should have enough to send samples out. Thanks to all who made this possible and to whom gave me the idea of a snuff solera. yes! I am using Toque Quit for this but don’t be surprised if a little Levi Garrett ends up in there. …Now, what are these allegations about?
I look forward to trying this. This will definitely cause me to make a toque order that I’ve been putting off for while. A long time ago in a discussion about SJ I said something to the effect of “someone should send roderick some so he can make Toque- Spanish Jewel” Though I have to say I agree with Trout about the name. Maybe call it Toque - Tribute?

LOL man that was good.
I also agree with the name dilema, and i think both “Spanish Tradition”, or “Tribute” would be very appropriate and fitting names. Although on the same note most every company has a sp,kendall etc. so maybe this is just the start of a new trend with the “original spanish jewel” being that of troutsroker,pedro and the snuff makers doing. Which if you think about it in that manner is more of an honor than anything. (although i do think the afore mentioned names have quite a good sound to them).
Or even “Spanish Conquest” I don’t have a personal attachment to the name, so I really don’t mind it either way.
Spanish Armada? Cesc Fabregas snuff? (OK, I’m an Arsenal fan!) 
Well, the way I see it: Pedro’s Spanish Jewel and Toque Spanish Jewel. I appreciate the fact that Pedro’s snuff is handmade and therefor it’s limited. So if Roderick can supply us with his idea of Spanish Jewel, at least we can also taste and enjoy something very close to Pedro’s Special. I doubt whether it will be exactly the same but something is better than nothing. I would love to try both these snuffs to compare but as you all know, Pedro’s snuff is rare and scares. So I can just hope that the Snuff Fairy might bring me some of this treasured jewel some day.
maybe spanglish jewel? I was thinking maybe it’s the spanish part you should change not the jewel part. Keep the theme spanish. Hispanola jewel? Catalan jewel? Well you get the point I think. Damn you Roderick for making me more anxious then ever to make a snuff order (o.k. I mean the opposite.)
Spanish Gold!
What are the real chances that there will ever be anymore real Spanish Jewel? The biggest form of flattery is imitation.
