Sun Snuff - Pari

The very quite but looong time member Abhishek from Sun Snuffs India has sent me some snuff samples with the help of Günter from Snuffstore.de. As I love dark snuffs, I will start with Pari Snuff. The box is a very colourful one. After opening it, you have a heavy, slightly roasted scent which curiously gives you a fresh breeze without snuffing it. After sniffing some you fell a nice burn in your nose. Thanks to a little oiliness, it doesn’t hit your throat at all. On the other hand you look like a chimney sweeper, so make sure to have a mirror at hand. The scent is heavy and very nice. It has a fine to very fine grind and the nicotine content seems to be normal to a bit more. Well done!

Any theories as to why this snuff, like some others outta India, is black? Is it the oil or moisture making the snuff darker, or is it something about the tobacco itself? And you mention “roasted” - like an American scotch snuff, or how?

Should be the tobacco. The other samples are light brown. I had no American scotch snuff as far as I know. It’s just a little touch though.

Where can we get this, it looks great!!

That looks flat out delectable! What was the fragrance like? Scented or pure Tobacco? Got a few friends in India that I wanted to ask for Snuff favours from. This one looks like another to add to the list.

That looks good!

But what’s the “flavor”?

Thanks for the review, Alex. I have another snuff to add to my wishlist now. After a HUGE order with Nicotine Rush, my wishlist is still too long!

Hello everyone. I am Abhishek from Sun Snuffs India. We have been manufacturing high quality snuff for a very long time. First of all thanks to Alex for taking so much pain and reviewing Pari Snuff. He deserves a lot of credit. In the coming days I would like to tell you more about our snuffs. We have launched all 4 flavours in Germany. Anyone interested can get them at http://www.snuffstore.de/onlineshop/index.php/cat/c187\_Sun-Snuff.html As far as flavour of Pari are concerned I left it to Alex because I don’t know english equivalents of most of the perfumes we add. Our snuffs have on average 20 different ingredients that’s why it took us aroung a year to enter in European markets.

@abhishekbisawa. Will these also be marketed in the States?

@Mr_Snuffypants Yes, very soon , we are looking for importers there.

@abhishekbisawa I am eager to learn about your snuffs and your company!

I love the color of that. Nice and dark.

@Alex Pic is very beautiful. Can you please add a pic of tin cap along with above .

The flavour is very natural; at most tobacco. There are oils added which are very fine and are not to strong. Smokey, tobacco and a fresh breeze, I would say.

@firstfloorfront Peter thanks for your interest. Check your mailbox peterbrown@manwat.co.uk.

ABOUT SUN SNUFFS SUN SNUFFS have been serving snuff users in India with high quality perfumed snuff formulated with unique blend of high quality tobacco, natural perfume oils ,saffron and other ingredients, for many decades. Our each snuff is a blend of more than 20 different top quality ingredients. Our admirers include many royal families in India and many high positioned officers of The East India Company in the past. What makes our snuff unique is it’s aroma and scientific blending methods which we have inherited from our ancestors combined with traditional manufacturing process like using stone grinders, sunlight drying, special fermenting process etc. Our ancestors acquired the understanding of perfume oils from the Arabs. Based on this knowledge we have particular time based sequence of adding perfume to snuff. This technique is combined with principles of Indian Medicine System called The Ayurveda. Thus a unique system was created which we calls Neutral Blending System. NEUTRAL BLENDING SYSTEM According to The Ayurveda every thing in this world that we put into our body has dual effect on our body. One is the immediate temporary effect and other one is the ultimate effect of substance on our body. Take example of alcohol. If someone is taking alcohol, one can add ice to it to make it feel cold while drinking , but the ultimate effect of alcohol is to give heat to body. It doesn’t matter it’s hot or cold when you are drinking, it always give heat to system. This thing holds true for every ingredient of snuff like tobacco, perfumes etc. In the same way every person has a constitution in body which is a blend of heat or coldness. Someone may be heat dominated or cold dominated or blend of both. There are people who feel less cold in winters and feel more heat in summers as compared to other because their constitution is hot. So as per Ayurveda cold things will go well in a hot body and vise versa. Now every ingredient of tobacco also has its ultimate effect, so sometimes wrong tobacco can have adverse effect on human body. For example Rose is very cold, and if a person with cold body uses Rose dominated tobacco, problems like flu, headache, cough etc. can occur. So to solve this problem our ancestors have blended ingredients in our snuffs in such a way that the ultimate effect is neutral on human body and thus can be used safely by any one of any constitution.
