Why toasts in the evening?

1

I’ve been snuffing for almost a year and a half now, but I have a noobish question that’s been puzzling me for some time now. When I read about peoples snuff preferences I often see that folks point out that they prefer to take toasts in the evening. I’m curious as to why as I enjoy toasts (if I’m in the mood for one) practically any time of day. Enlighten me? :slight_smile: Thanks!

Then you don’t have the scent of pansies, or whatever, in your nose all night.

lol! I suppose that’s as good a reason as any. :slight_smile:

Personally, I like citrus, fruit and sweet snuff in the mornings. Toasts are in the late afternoon/eveing like a nice scotch or bandy as a …nightcap?

I use toasts during the day and prefer florals in the evening. It really comes down to personal preference.

I love HDT and a coffee :slight_smile: . Damn good together

I don’t really have particular types of snuff for different times of the day, for the most part. I do like a pinch of a medicated snuff before I go outside, and also at bedtime, but otherwise, I just snuff whatever I’m in the mood for, regardless of the time.

I found so far that I vastly prefer scotches round the clock. I’ve got a modest collection WoS, Toque, and Poschls but I find I like them more as the occasional “snack.” Dental Mild is my current go-to in the PC box…

I prefer scotches or toasts in the summer time, for what that’s worth. Tastes are funny things like that.

I’ve been exploring this snuff stuff for a few weeks now, and only in the past few days realized that “toast” may not, in fact, refer to the grilled bread commonly eaten at breakfast. With such a variety out there (eg. cheese and bacon) it didn’t seem outrageous to me. So, seriously, was I wrong in associating toasts with toasted bread?

12

Sort of. From my limited understanding, “toast” refers to the processing the tobacco undergoes before grinding, and to a very fine and light, dry grind. There are many kinds of toasts, and I think most people are referring to the grind when they distinguish them that way. Someone will probably correct me though. :slight_smile:

The tobacco is toasted.

I remember a quite possibly apocryphal tale of a drunk irish snuff mill worker accidentally overcooking the tobacco thus creating the “Irish toast”.
