What’s in your cellar? (bulk snuffs)

5

There seems to have been some panic buying recently, due to the effects of the EU-TPD. There’s also members (like me) who have already had some bulk cellared away for a while anyway. I thought it might me interesting to see which snuffs, or which types of snuffs, members have chosen to stock up their cellars with in bulk. (200g+) Here’s mine … Wilson’s Tom Buck Wilson’s Burgundy Wilson’s Brunswick Wilson’s Best Dark Sam Gawith Celtic Talisman Sam Gawith Firedance Sam Gawith London Brown Sam Gawith SP Scotch Gawith Hoggarth KB Plain Viking Thors Hammer Toque Berwick Brown Toque Rustica Toque Plain Coarse 500g+ of a Crazy George style own blend I’ve also got well over a kilo of other snuffs in smaller containers, and think I probably own about 3x more snuff than I’ve ever consumed :(|) Which snuffs did you decide you need to cellar away in bulk (over 200g) ?

I have a pound of F&T Santo Domingo and around 200g of SG Kendal Brown. I also have 20ish Old Mill 60g jars of miscellaneous blends, all exceptional, and all cherished after the unexpected passing of our friend Chef Daniel. About to place an order that should last me the rest of my life. Let’s face facts: tobacco isn’t getting cheaper and soon it might not be available at any reasonable price. While other forms of tobacco are easily obtained here in the US (150+ pounds of pipe weed in the cellar!), snuff is near-impossible to find. Time to stock up.

@skydog 150+ pounds of weed? Go dude!

I have ordered my bulks generally in 200g bags/drums, so not every one of these has over 200g left. WoS: Rose of Sharrow Jockey Club Burgundy Tom Buck Morlaix Grand Cairo Toque Almond toast Ginger Lime toast St. Clements Rustica US Whiskey and honey

Nice array of snuff, guys! SHbickel, I know what you mean about the “various others”. When I’m at home, here’s what I reach for. IMG_20161118_165552_800_600 6 x Gawith Hoggarth 7 x Fribourg and Treyer 4 x Viking 3 x Jaxons 3 x Sam Gawith 12 x Wilsons of Sharrow 2 x McCrystals 9 x Molens 12 x Toque 2 x JH Wilsons 2 x Mullins and Westley If I’m heading out somewhere, or indulging in more than a pinch of any one snuff, I’ll load a daybox (MrSnuff rococco box) with one of these. Alternatively, I’ll fill a daybox from one of my two dozen 25g bail top jars all with different blends to what’s in the case (12 of which are what I decant my bulk into). I’m not in danger of running out anytime soon.

I have so many kilos of pipe tobacco and snuff I can’t even keep a tally of it.

J

I tried to as well and it gave me a headache. It’s frickin many pounds and I will be hoarding for the next two years at least

J

My goal is 30 pounds to feel secure after that it’s just fun

Z

I have about a pound of Rooster, but that’s the only thing I’m incredibly deep on.

30 pound goal, wow! I’ve probably got 10ish (in bulk) and feel very secure - in fact 5kg of snuff actually leaves me feeling a little guilty of excess. Not guilty enough to stop me just placing another order though :-"

T

I have at least 15 pound probably closer to 20 if I actually got it all out and weighed it, the only thing on my list is to grow a big crop of Rustica this coming spring & that will do me as I doubt very seriously that I will ever use nearly all of it once I get the Rustica grown and floured, I am addicted to the stronger nic snuffs so my mild snuffs don’t get used much & when I do use one I chase it with Rustica or one of my stronger snuffs. G’Day

@Zanaspus  Hi bud, I have right close to a pound of Rooster jarred myself , I also have about a pound of Bruton

Since starting this thread, these “panic buys” have been added… SG Grousemoor SG Yellow Crest SG Blue Crest 6P Anarkali 6P Super Kailash WoS Grand Cairo Rough tally is currently at about 6.5kg bulk, plus another 1.5kg of odd tins and 25g glass jars. I really need to stop now, as it’s getting silly, but I still find myself keeping an eye out for bargains…

C

I have Toque USA Whiskey & Honey, WoS IHT #22, and Viking Dark in bulk. If I were somehow limited to just these three snuffs I wouldn’t be too upset.

A

30 pounds of snuff, that is a heck of alot. Just think about the kids in India at the moment who cant buy snuff

C

Long, long before my supply runs out, I’ll have mastered the craft of making my own from homegrown. As they say in the pipe world, all roads lead to Virginia, so that’s my focus, though I’ve got seeds for other varieties, including rustica. My experiments started years back, and I’ve already made some insightful discoveries.

N

Rustic to be mastered this next grow year. Will start on the fermentation of last seasoned leaves soon for an idea I have for the nose.

P

ive got F&T seville, SG wallflower and Toque sp extra stocked in large quantities. i also bought up all the WoS lemon toast that Mr snuff had left which ended up being 22, 5g tins

When I started this thread I had expected people to have mainly bulked up on the plainer snuffs, but it’s nice to see folks have taken to stocking up on such a wide range of different snuffs

R

I stock up on anything menthol.
