with my first order out of DW and Toque quit and sternecker echt fresco, and not pro enough to use the DW id say Toque quit so far lol. I wanna know for future orders what snuffhouse would suggest
Always O&G. Has been so for years now. It’s like my defacto Marlboro lights from my smoking days. Opens the nasal passages lovely ready for whatever snuff I want next.
for a nice wakeup i like 6photo 66. no burn, plenty of nic, plenty of refreshing menthol, easy to take, not harsh. ill second the O&G being good too, i often used to have a couple of pinches upon waking up, followed by absolutely packing the nose with viking dark just before stepping in the shower then i cleared it out when the nic hit. now the 6p 66 pretty much does all this. the snuff i have after the shower pretty much defines my day.
For me its Fubar Toasted every morning.The initial burn is like a good slap in the face…which I need to get moving most mornings.
F&T HDT
A lot of toast and Willie Pete
Can’t say I have any one in particular though on reflection I do frequently start with SG Black Coffee or WOW Gin & Tonic.
Usually an English menthol for me. Its usually the only time of day I enjoy them.
What’s o&g? id probably to newb to do any of the toasts yet or the Willie Pete. I have 50g sp gem and 25g of whiskey and honey fromToque site supposed to be here tomorrow. Next order im shootin for ozona president, poschl gawith apricot, one of the 100g bag ones SF something, dholakia Swiss chocolate and then maybe one of ur guys suggestions whatever sounds the best I guess lol.
@stimpakk O&G is McChrystal’s Original and Genuine. It’s a Mentholated english snuff.
@Ohiosnuffer is the mcchrystals same consistency of DW? Ill go ahead and try orderin that too.
DDo any of the energy snuffs actually work? Garauna, ice lemon by WoS or tiger?
i dont think the energy snuffs have enough effect to be noticeable, or worth it. if you are looking for the quick boost of energy a cup of coffee or energy drink gives, drink them. maybe at the same time as a quick nic snuff.
@stimpakk O&G is a semi fine snuff and nothing like Dholakia White which is ultra fine. Most McChrystal’s snuffs use the same flour.
@Xander so ur sayin mcchrystals usis same flour as dw?? is it wheat flour that they use or do you know?
No. Read what I wrote again.
@Xander yea
@stimpakk O&G is a semi fine snuff and nothing like Dholakia White which is ultra fine. Most McChrystal’s snuffs use the same flour.
The last part could be tagged to either dw or o&g, instead of acting like im a retard and sayin to re read it you could be more specific next time and say “as dw” or “as o&g” at the end. however I thank you for the insight. do you know what kind of flour they use?
Would you guess tobacco flour?
For the past few days it has been SG Grousemoor - it seems to wake me up nicely.
Definitely White Elephant or Dholakia White. I like to wake up with a bang.
I start with Viking Blonde or Dark, followed a little later by Dholakia White (my motivation).
dont worry, flour confused me before, since it in no way relates to tobacco by definition. i think a lot of snuffers need to look up its actual definition.
Yes I didn’t know that the right word for the ground tobacco that makes up snuff was flour. Just one of the many things I have learned from joining this wonderful board. I like Toque Toast & Msrmalade in the morning though I’m also partial to McCrystal’s Original & Genuine.
Its one of three for me when I wake up. Either toque sp extra, 6 photo natural, or 6 photo anarkali
Would you guess tobacco flour?
Sorry my concerns were that it was made with real flour (which im very alergic to) and I panicked. I never ment to annoy you or offend you.
I like FUBAR Grunt first thing in the morning or Viking Dark and the various mixes I make with it. Both go well with coffee.
Viking Dark or F&T HDT with the morning coffee. I’ll also rotate in some American scotch other other toasts occasionally.
Surprised at some of the choices here. O&G I find to strong menthol wise and toast I love after I am awake. For me it’s my WoS Jasmine and Grand Cairo blend (which does have a little O&G in there as well as some F&TMorlaix for a bit of musk). It’s also what I take last thing at night normally too if I’m not on the FOJ. Works for me but not at all sure why. Don’t normally use it throughout the day though. I’ve actually got into t a bit of a standard daily routine. Once I get the Coffee then it’s my Tia Maria/ Morocco / Princess Special blend followed by my Rose / Best SP blend and then my Toast Blend ( many in that ) for most of the day and then my Coffee blend (many in that) later in the evening before ending with were I started. Rinse and repeat.
It could be one of the Viking offerings or F&T HDT, or whatever is handy at the moment.
Lately i’ve been using a strong Menthol when i wake up. McC O&G, Wos Dynamite, I also like the Poschl Radford English Type.
Dragun quickly followed by toque quit
O&G for me!
I fill the snout full of Black Motia, then step into a hot shower. After that, I pinch a few large ones into each nostril(white elephant) and kick back to enjoy the ride. After that, I use Quit/WE Through out the day.
I’m a snuffer newb, and I grind my own from pipe tobacco, but so far I like a pinch I have ground with eucalyptus essential oil. It really is different from menthol but is still a refresher type hit…
O&G as well. It clears my head and wakes me up.
Hedges for me every morning for the past few years. Clears me up and wakes me up.
Hedges would be my choice too if not for O&G. I just like the added spiciness of O&G.
Red bull for,me.
Gawith Apricot
I usually wait til after my first real meal of the day to take any snuff and the first choice varies greatly. I can’t stomach nicotine right after waking up.
whatever is closest to me. Really that’s what my first snuff of the day is.
Lol @bob
Lately ive been having a pinch of black joe with my morning coffee. Fine way to start my days.
Normally I start off the day with a strong menthol. Snafu, WoS Dynamite, Red Bull or some thing similar will be my first snuff of the day.
Toque Menthol, I’m pretty new to snuff and this gives me a good burn and helps to clean me out.
Poschl Grado Caffé or McC O&G
Its WoS CoC or McC O&G for me
Something high in menthol for a nasal cleansing from the snuff ghouls, then one of the Dholakia, 6P or 41P dry products with a lot of N. EDIT: Some mornings I either need to force or shovel spoonfuls of Motia up the snout, blow the nose, then repeat 2x more. The snuff ghouls refuse to leave.
Lol @snuffh3ad what you mean by sniff ghouls? Im a new snuff user just trying too learn the lingo around here lol. I just ordered 6p medicated 66, waitin for it to come in this next week. After that ill prob ordsr one of the 6p bundles
Whisky & Honey
Something medicated and then a coffee scent: Café 11, Sam Gawaith Black Coffee or Grado with an actual black coffee. If I drink tea I like medicated or pine needle scent snuffs followed by a bergamot scented SP.
Viking Dark for the last few months as it has plenty on nicotine, but it is a little brutal first thing. After reading many respected members use O&G i think i’ll give that a go in the morning.
Well Ive taken your suggestions @firestarter0 And @basement_shaman ordered plenty of stuff. 50g of HDT 21g of o&&g And a bunch of others. Thx for all of ur suggestions. And you too @snuffh3ad I will be ordering some motia next order
And some white elephant
Luckily in the summer months my snuff ghouls are not out too terribly bad. I usually start the day off right with some powerful N, such as White Elephant or D white. A nice kick in the head and off I go!
Right now it’s McChrystal’s Sturco. Wakes me right up with that strong menthol scent and has a good N lift imo.
Sturco is certainly one of the most mentholated ones I have tried. A real eye-opener, to be sure. For me its a bit too mentholated to be enjoyed. Jip is probably the best one from Mcchrystals for me.
@Xander ill have to try jip, o&&g was pretty good, any other good ones from them you’d suggest?
Schmalzler and coffee, as soon as I wake up.
@stimpakk Well most people would tell you O&G, but McChrystal’s has quite a variety of traditional English Medicated snuffs beyond that. My preference of the bunch was Jip, as stated, but Highland Ice is not bad too. I liked Sturco’s flavor a lot, but too much menthol for me to make it pleasant. Supermint is a pretty good one since it has no menthol just a VERY strong peppermint, so no menthol rebound effect but a similar nose clearing effect.
Virtually always O&G, but sometimes Hedges L260 for a change or some other menthol occasionally.
I find my nose is very dry when I wake up, so taking fine snuffs or toasts are a challenge until I get some moisture running. Any medium grind, moist snuff is good for me.
WoS SM Blue or O & G, whichever I stumble across first.
Dholakia White always gets the wheels turning !
Fubar Medic gets the job done…
I´m on the side of Schmalzlers to start the day. A pinch of Pöschl Perlesreuter and a cup of Coffee or Tea: It´s a nice way to begin a cold morning
Red Seal is my favorite but unfortunately I’m out right now.
Usually toque rose or violet, just love the way the scent hits as I walk out the door to go to work. Sometimes if it’s really hot I’ll reach for anarkali
F.U.B.A.R. Snafu Plain, the breakfast of champions
Lol @snuffsniffer
dutch windmills Pompador (sooory about the spelin). That wakes me up nice. Café 11 is great too. Though my cat getting really excited that I’am awake helps more then any snuff for the wake up.
First thing in the morning, I’ve been jamming a bunch of Kailash in each nostril for last few weeks, followed by some sp then whatever I decide to bring to work. If I’m off, shmalzlers hit the spot
I usually start the day with a coffee snuff just because it is a perfect match with what is in my cup. My go to am snuffs right now are cafe 11, SG Black Coffee, Silver Dollar Coffee and WoS Coffee Cream. I rotate them to whichever I am in the mood for. They are all very different and have their own nuances that I very much enjoy.
Being “energized” by snuff is all psychological. First thing in the morning for me is either 6 Photo Kailash or Special, whichever is closest at hand.
Wilsons of Sharrow MS 500 in the winter… but the old J&H Wilson’s S.P. No.1 mostly, unless I have man flu and then its more likely back to the Wilsons of Sharrow ‘kick’.
What’s man flu?
Viking Dark.
Always have a pinch of hedges in the morning to wake me up
Whatever menthol is choice of the week (WoS Extra Menthol currently), then a blast of Red Bull before leaving the house.
Dholakia White or Abraxas Dragun.
As of late I enjoy 2 pinches of Toque Rustica Coarse
I used to snuff Gawith Apricot as my first in the morning. It has enough nic to hit my brain and wake me up, but after two years (I took around 2kg of GA in all my life) it started to annoy my nose. Not aroma was annoying, but my nose has been so runny after snuffing GA that I was afraid it would run away. So I had to stop snuffing GA. Now the only important thing is that it can’t be dry and powdery snuff in the morning. So I take any snuff closest to me, but - as I have said - it can not be dry.
For a real power breakfast, I have a pinch of Dragun, followed by a pinch of Dholakia White, and then a pinch of Toque Peppermint. And a teaspoon of cayenne pepper with lemon juice (although I don’t put that up my nose). Then have a swim, two fried eggs and strong Earl Grey tea with milk no sugar, more Dholakia White, and then start the day.
Whatever menthol strikes me at the time followed by copious amounts of Six Photo Natural.
I’ve been using my old tin of Dr Rumney’s, followed by the 41 Photo Himtaj, black or gold, it makes no difference, they both seem to switch on my groggy brain… followed my espresso coffee with sugar. Load up on the morning stimulants!
On most days I find that a strong menthol snuff does the best of job of waking me up. After a cup of coffee, I’ll sniff a few big pinches of a strong menthol snuff like Hedges L260, McChrystal’s Original & Genuine, J&H Wilson Medicated No.99, or Sharrow Mentholated. (Every so often I might go for some Gletscher Prise, but I find it a bit weak in nic department) Menthol awakens my nasal passages and gets my eyes tearing with the burst of cold energy. Of course nicotine also plays a part in waking me up. If I want to add a bit more Vitamin N to my morning pinch, I’ll usually mix in a little Abraxas Dragun Menthol mixed in with my regular pinch. Since the menthol allegedly in “Dragun Menthol” is barely detectable at all to my sniffer, I find mixing it with a strong menthol complements it quite well. Quite a wake up call. If it’s a very cold morning though, and I don’t want to be made colder by menthol, I sometimes will use F&T High Dry Toast (pretty high in nic content) or an SP like J&H Wilson S.P. No.1 or Wilson’s of Sharrow Tom Buck, sometimes just a little McChrystal’s S’nuff. Those snuffs warm me up and help get me out of bed on a cold day.
Once I get to work I start snuffing Bernard’s Doppelt Fermentiert like a madman. It kills the pain of my job.
Menthol does seem to be the best for morning to open the nose and have a bit of a clear out but I’m not a menthol lover really. I discovered though that Dragun Menthol seems to suit me very well for this purpose since it’s really a toast and I do like toasts and it doesn’t have to much menthol. Seems just about right for me. Not long awake and on about my 5th (different) snuff already. Got to get the levels up again!
What’s man flu?
@wiscsnuffer i’m guessing a hang over?
My first nic intake of the day is still usually roll ups, but my first snuff is usually SP/Plain. Berwick Brown, KB, Tom Buck would all qualify and be a pleasant first snuff, even something darker/heavier like Scotch Black or Viking Dark - anything floral or dessert/fruity would likely put me off. Menthols are purely “medicinal” for me, and only taken if needed, that way they have the most potency/effect when it matters most, and little chance of a rebound. I reckon I’ve probably gone 4 months or more without menthol, and haven’t been carried on my person since well before that
What’s man flu?
@wiscsnuffer i’m guessing a hang over?
@wiscsnuffer @BigNose Man Flu is a heavy cold which turns even the most manly of men into a whimpering pathetic shadow of his usual self. The fairer sex generally seems to think it’s all laid on really think for their benefit :-< - they just don’t seem to understand the devastating and debilitating power of Man Flu :-"
So true!!
I think I read recently that there had been some research into man-flu and it was discovered that us chaps - being sensitive and very aware - do actually suffer more from cold and flu systems than members of the opposite sex do. If I can remember where I read this - and it was a serious article not a wind up - I will post a link.
@lunecat - Yes that looks like the research I was referring to - thanks for posting.
F&T HDT I live in south florida it’s a great snuff for the nasty morning weather.
Usually Hedges. Perks me right up and clears the bats out of the belfry
Recently red bull or l260 but besides that mostly something strong with a nice kick!
Usually L260 for me as well.
F&T HDT for me… Great way to start the day. Maybe Toque Natural Toast also, its usually closer on my night stand.
First thing in the morning I tend to go for massive surge of nicotine to get all the neurons firing correctly. I tend to favor Dholakia White or Toque Quit.
@lunecat do yourself a favor and order the Jock’s Choice. Its not like Lemon Grove. There is no WoS equivalent of it. The M&W Citrus Delight might be Lemon Grove relabled, but I don’t have both on hand to compare. Anyway, Jock’s Choice is quite unique: bergamot and neroli together, and to my nose amazing!
I guess I’m going to have to get some O&G in my next order. There are so many that are highly recommended by the masses on here. I know it’s kind of an Argumentum ad populum, but I trust you guys’ judgment. Red Bull was an all day snuff for me for a short while, but the menthol has cloyed.
Been using f&t hdt or toque natural toast recently. Both go great with coffeeand wake u up
I felt a bit groggy driving back home this afternoon, but a pinch of GH Sea Breezes put that right
Toque Rustica Fine for the initial morning cravings followed by a nose full of Toque Quit along with a portion of snus. Keeps the nicotine goblins at bay for me.
I usually start with a pinch of Hedges. Gets me going and mixed with the steam from a hot shower really clears the bats out of the belfry. Then I’ll take some Cafe 11 to keep me alert during my commute.
I forgot all about WoS Prime Minister. I don’t normally have a wake up snuff. But if I wanted to employ one; PM would be there .
Well, you all know that I’m new, but at this point to wake up, I prefer Honey Bee; just seems to do the trick in the morning; though, from what I’m told here, that will change as I become acquainted with others.
I was enjoying an english menthol when i first woke but I now use Bruton to get me out of bed. I do however like a pinch of gawith apricot 5 min before stepping outside into the cold because I believe the rejuvenated apricot smell is MAGIC.
VD all day
