No snuff gives me such a satisfying burn as J&H Wilson Sp no 1. I appreciate the subtle bergamot scent and base tobacco but the burn for me is the main reason I snuff this one. I guess it’s a combination of the grind and my nose. What snuff do you enjoy for the burn?
For me it would have to be wos grand cairo.
WoS Best Dark gives me a nice tingle 'n sting. Same with some other WoS snuffs that have a floral scent. Princes, too. Brunswick is a bit too much of bite, when I think about it. I haven’t tried any of these new pepper snuffs yet.
Viking Dark is the best burn for me - burn but nothing hits the throat or gets past the mid-nose even if you snuff hard; then a strong nose-throb.
most med/fine WoS snuffs give me a good burn, but i like the different burn of firedrac. agree on the viking dark.
Dholakia White, Rooster, Bruton, Red Seal, lotsa Vitamin N, nice burn
There is no snuff I have EVER tried that has a burn like FUBAR Bohica. But I do NOT enjoy it. I believe it is the snuff of Lucifer himself, for times when he is in a particularly foul mood.
I’ve been shoving snuff up my nose for a little while now, and I’m not sure “the burn” is the thing. Don’t get me wrong. I hammer HDT like a snuff crazed idiot at every opportunity and it still burns like hell, and I enjoy every damn millisecond of it. Thanks to those on this wonderful forum I finally tried my first Indian white, and didn’t much care for it, not because of the burn factor, it’s well made snuff, but it just didn’t float my boat. It did kick my ass. Thanks to @JakartaBoy I’m waiting for my delivery of Sparrow, and hope it lives up to the reputation it’s earned around here. There are just those times I’m looking for the nicotine to whip me into submission without pounding my olfactory orifice into paste. Thankfully there are plenty of snuffs out there that fill the bill, fill my nose and fill my snuffbox without the dubious benefit of cauterizing my hooter into a smoldering cinder. I can’t think of any right now because I just shoveled a massive quantity of HDT up my hooter.
@chefdaniel, if Scotch is the American cousin to English toast, then Sparrow is the Indian cousin.
@JakartaBoy For some odd reason I’m getting a craving for curry? I’m very much looking forward to Sparrow. It may just be my dream snuff. I also ordered the cool version just for the helluva it.
Hedges–love the burn in a clean nose.
@chefdaniel, hehe. I think my intake of Indian food has gone up since I’ve started taking Indian snuffs. You do need to select food carefully to complement your chosen snuff.
I also ordered the cool version just for the helluva it.
Sparrow Cool is excellent as well. They don’t go overboard with the menthol so it doesn’t obliterate the excellent tobacco.
Not exactly a burn, more of a delightful, cold sting for me; WoS extra menthol, I cannot promote it enough.
WOS Chili Chocolate *ugh*
For me for now its the Red Bull. But only if I don’t use it for a while and come back to it.
Bohica is the burningest snuff I’ve ever tried. After about a minute I had to flood my nose with ice water, and it still left an unpleasant burn. I guess some people like it, but not me. I like the slow, non chili burn of NTSU Black. That would by favorite burn, followed by 6 Photo Golden Natural.

I think @chefdaniel said it best in this thread. I’m not a fan of an eye-watering snuff experience. I’ll tolerate the sting if it’s part of the fragrance (think Rose of Sharrow–the sharpness is part of the scent of a rose) but I don’t actively “seek” the burn. I am utterly unable to understand the marketability of Bohica or chili pepper snuffs in general and I love fiery foods. It seems supremely masochistic to search for nasal pain That said, I do like a snuff that lets me know it’s in the honker. I’m not looking for a non-sensual experience. But snuffs that hurt get discarded.
Taxi Red gets it going for me. No other snuff at present will both kick in and really let me know its there like the Red.
FT@T HDT does it just right for me …
