I’ve only just discovered the wonder that is Toque snuff recently. I have tried the Toffee, Espresso, Vanilla, Whisky & Honey, Peanut Butter and Champagne (thanks, Roderick!) varieties and am really enjoying them. I’d like to try a fruit flavoured snuff, and as Toque seem to capture scents so well I thought I’d try a couple from their range. Any suggestions?
StClements and St Clements and…Pomegranate and St Clements.
Sorry, I forgot about Blueberry!! And, of course, St Clements
So you’re partial to a bit of St Clements then, Pieter?

You can’t go wrong with st. clements. If you would like a fantastic fruit cocktail get the 5 for 4 25g pack with st. clements, grapefruit, cherry, raspberry, and absinthe + some pomegranate. I posted the proportions on the “toque cocktails” thread. You can do it with or without the pomegranate; it is great both ways. It took me a bunch of tries to get it right and I snuff a wilsons snuffbox a week.
I love all the natural ones. I have Pomegranate today. Very, very nice. Seriously, just go for it, free post and all. I still have to try the menthol fruities, but I’m not a menthol fan. I suspect they are excellent as well.
Blueberry, pomegranate, raspberry, grapefruit are all very good.
Thanks, chaps. I was definitely going to try St Clements, but Jarhog’s suggestion sounds good - a fruit cocktail up my nose - mmmmmm…

I think I’m gonna stick with the natural fruit flavours before I head over to fruit menthols - I could always mix them with a little O&G or SM if I felt like a little added mentholation, couldn’t I?
if you like the toasts go for Toast & Marmelade ! Wonderful!
I just got a delivery of Grapefruit, St Clements, Raspberry, Pomegranate and Cherry, which are at home airing (although I couldn’t resist taking a little bottle of St Clements to work with me - boy that’s some tasty snuff!) and I’ll try them all out tonight when I get in. I may well make Jarhog’s cocktail too.
Raspberry is one of my personal favorites. I am waiting for my Pomegranate to come in the mail. I have tried all of them (and their menthol counterparts), aside from Pomegranate, and I have to say that Raspberry is probably the best. Just my opinion. =] ~Snuffy
They are all excellent so far. Raspberry is particularly good - a really fresh, natural raspberry aroma with a good solid tobacco base. Can’t fault it.
I was just perusing the Toque site, looking to get a nice big economy bag of Toast & Marmalade, but it doesn’t seem to be listed - Is this an oversight, do you think?
I asked Roderick the same question a while back, he sold me a 50g bag, even though it wasn’t listed. Have you tried the Bourbon yet Toffee? I think it’s my favorite Toque, at this minute!
Yes, I have got a 50g bag in my Toque basket as we speak - I love all their toasts. I just emailed Roderick, hopefully I’ll be able to get a bag of T&M, perhaps one of Spanish Jewel as well - that is one fine snuff!
I’m jealous, I haven’t tried the SJ yet. I’m waiting for the new Dholakia’s to arrive, then i’ll place an order from Tom or Dave.
Just heard from Roderick - it appears that the acid from the fruit juices make the bags used for the economy packages unsound - they swell and split, rather like orange juice expands in a container if left too long. So, he’s going to put 50g in a tub for me, which is most excellent customer service, PLUS he’ll send me a replacement Spanish Jewel 10g tin as my last one was squashed in transit. I cannot stress how brilliant Roderick & the guys at Toque are - exemplary service every time. Thanks!
