As a newbie to snuff…my 3 early day faves are:

Toque - Berwick Brown

             Whiskey & Honey

Sam Gawith - KB Original

This may change when my current order arrives with a selection of 6 Photo, F&T Carotte, Dholakia Black, and Wilsons Bee M.

How does the 6 Photo Cheeta and the Toque Whiskey & Honey compare? Nose burn with the Cheeta?

41P White Elephant Toque SP Extra SG Kendal Brown Special I could probably retire to a desert island with these, but would undoubtedly start craving something a little perfumed to ring the changes. Not on a desert island, though, so not a problem.

@Ben_MacM Cheeta has a nose burn, it’s finer grind than Whiskey&Honey, seems to have a lot more nicotine and a nice kinda lemony aroma. You have to try Cheeta for sure.

Yeah, Cheetah is good. I would think of it as a scented white snuff, I believe that is about how 6photo described it themselves. To me the scent is floral, more or less. Worth a shot imo.

  1. Prins Regent. Delightful stuff. Easy to take, wonderful aroma, no. mess. Rationing my limited supply. 2. Wilson’s Strasbourg. To me, it’s the scent of Earl Grey. 3. O&G. Complex and refreshing, but too much leads To burnout for me. One that should be mentioned but will only be spoken of in passing is Old Paris. While still very, very good, it’s quite simply no longer Old Paris. It has clearly changed and the captivating alcoholic figginess from the date liqueur has gone and left the snuff poorer for the change. Closer to Santo Domingo in flavor now.

Thanks @ALLex and @Mr_O for the feedback on Cheeta. Being new to snuff I am still a bit intimidated by these stronger offerings. That being said, I am a gamer! I had assumed something with a strong scent, very floral and sandalwood-esque. This will be fine with me, especially the sandalwood part of it.

I’ll add my two penneth worth on 6Photo Cheeta. I find it quite bland and pretty hard to take and I’ve been “snuffing” for 10 years or more. If you want an equally potent Nic hit, without the tears, try 41 Photo’s Yellow Lilly Perfumed it’s one of the few none medicated Indians and is mildly floral rather than the usual incense/perfume character. Still take with caution like any fine toast.

Toque’s Whisky & Honey is good, but a poor substitute for WoS’s that has been discontinued:-((. Maybe Toque’s US version might be closer but it only comes in those ridiculous small 10gr tins.

My all time favorite #1 is Toque USA Whiskey and Honey. Then #2 be SWS Field of Juniper. #3 is Silver Dollar Medicated but I’m all out and been using 6 Photo #666 in its place. @JeffParr you can get Whiskey and Honey USA in 50-400 gram economy bags from Toquesnuffdotcom

Is there anyone’s out here in the world who’s top three are Fubar Bohica, Toque Cheese an Bacon, and Snuffy Weiss? Was just wondering nothing wrong with those tho.

@Stoke_About_Toque Thanks for that, I may invest in 100+gr bag once I’ve sampled it. That’s how I buy thier Kentuck Bourbon (USA) and Chocolate (US), which are both great and a good Nic hit. I’ll add it to my order when I need to restock.

I tried the Toque Cheese an Bacon as one of their buy 10 * 10gr selection special offers. I thought it would be a bit of fun and it was, I still have 9.9gr left after 2 yrs, enough said:-)

I better keep on topic I guess and update my top 3:

  1. SG Elmos Reserve (no change here)

2. WoS Africa - New flavour by WoS last year - Mild Chocolate and kind of grassy, in a dark and really good tobacco base, good hit.

  1. SG K B Plain - Just a great mature tobacco scent and v. easy to take with SG’s fluffy grind. (How do they do that??)

Well just got some new snuff to me in mail today and it’s shaken up what I thought were my top 3. #1 Otto Chancellor #2 Otto Schmalzler maybe USA Whiskey and Honey #3 Otto Glacier I don’t know if this cuz they are the new kids on block but nothing ever replaced USA W and H. I have tried allot of snuff and this Otto line is majestic! I doubt Roderick made these, had to been unicorns and leprechauns!

@Stoke_About_Toque I’ve see allot of fond affections for these Scmalzler snuffs. I understand they are quite a wet snuff and popular in Germany. Are they messy to use? Do they have a medium or high nic hit? Is there a place on the forum where I can learn about the different types of snuff available? Not so much brands, but styles.

@Ben_Macm actually schmalzlers I’m fairly new to. I over looked them for since I started. Toque schmalzler first I tried and it very moist and take extra force to get in nose. A little more messy then usual and gets my nose running. There allot of stuff on forum but I use Google to search em. Just ordered some poschl schmalzler sf sudfrucht to compare. I like em but I like the feeling of a finer grind in nose but schmalzlers are fun too almost out my ten gram tin in two days. So easy to pinch.

Schmalzlers are not moist in the real sence, being from greese (originaly butter) rather than water, which I find makes it easier to take. I have a Dutch freind that orders it by the Kg, due to the copious amounts he literaly thumbs up his nose and seems to stay there quite well.  It’s the traditional Baverian way of taking it apparently, as is the quantity of beer he can down, in that, I’m a big fan of tradition too.

I’ve seen some old photos/paintings??? of Germam pubs with a large jar of Schmalzler on the table. These have what looks like fethers sprouting from the cork, I assume used to dust off the excess from lip or mustach?

Bernard’s - Aecht Altbayerischer Old Bavarian Schmalzler would be in my top 3 if it wasn’t so expensive, I save it as a treat:-))
