Oh, Samorost is French…well I would like to know if exists French and Italian snuff brand nowadays. Only for the interest of the Forum. Cheers to you all, Pedro
I think it is due to the fact, that most of these people do not speak English very well. It is quite common amongst these south-european nations. I encountered same problem in Greece and Spain. During my pilgrimage with some spanish youths I realized, that my Spanish after two years of education was on very same level as their English, which they had been learning for 12 years (well, some of them). The bigger and more visited country is the less level of English you can expect, because they expect you to know their language.
I agree with you xsys, but if you want to travel through the world you need to speak at least English and also Spanish. Here in Spain the level of English is,nowadays, growing up, but between people of my age is very rare to find some with a regular English level. Cheers , Pedro
all of the younger spainards I’ve known speak accectable english. If I rember correctly there was one french person on the list (I maybe imagineing this) I think he said that there are not french snuff companies and that all tobacco is heavily controled in france (includeing what kinds you can stock in a store) and hence the snuff selection is terrible. I may be rembering this wrong but… P.s. my mothers maiden name is Yunnunzio which is italian so I’am sort of Itallian. I’ve read somewhere that Italy and Spain have similar percentages of snuff users with the biggest being German then English (again this is from the top of my head).
Yes Bob, in Spain is very hard to find people who take snuff. I know only three countrymen that have this lovely habbit. But is a shame, you know Spain was one of the most famous countries snuff makers. And in my town, Sevilla, exists the wolrd biggest snuff factory in the entire world ( XVII,XVIII and XIX Centuries). And also Italy was till little time a very important snuff makers, for example Leccesse, Sant’Antonino, Sun di Espagna…etc, were very fine and excellents snuff brands. Good Night from Spain. Pedro
I rember about two years ago being suprised when I would met spainish people that I would have to explain what I was taking, though usaly they would keep taking pinches and exclaim they would take up the habit. (at that time I was making my own snuffs which only three of do I really still like and need to find a better base tobacco for. My favorites were creamy peppermint [bergamot and peppermint], black pepper [suprisingly great actualy though hard to convince people to try a pinch and camphor bergamot little tiny amount of camphor lots of bergamot.)

There were a few on the first list that I hadn’t heard of. Some being san’Giustina, Sun Di Spagna, Zenziglio, La Nationale. They did have san’Antonino on there.
Here I am, from Italy
Pleased to meet you Lore79! So now that you have resurrected this thread, please tell us all you can about Italian snuff!
Ciao Lore! Mi chiamo Riccardo, come stai? haha ok thats about all the Italian I can remember at the moment from lessons long ago 
Yes tell us about the types of snuff in Italy please?? Is it popular over there? ps Fiorentina are doing very well this season huh! Montolivo is awesome. (sorry if your not a football fan)
Good to hear from you again, Lore. Unfortunately Italian snuff tobaccos, mostly N. rustica varieties, are no longer grown and snuff is no longer made in Italy. The seeds of these tobaccos have been preserved, however. There is an old Italian language book that contains detailed info on these old snuffs. See my last post in the Snuff Literature thread.
French Canadian? Je mes souviens…
Im Anglo Italian (best of both worlds)
