What @basement_shaman said. Basically, almost all of them. I love the plain snuffs best of all. Difficult to pick out 5 that are my favorites. I think F&T HDT always remains at or near the top of the list. That is my go to. I’d put Rooster up there too but he crows no more. *sniffle*

N

Bernard Gekachelter Virginie should make the list, an excellent and often overlooked plain snuff

J

Toasts. PERIOD.

A

Would SG Kendal Brown Original be a plain baccy snuff? Or is it flavored? I haven’t tried that one yet…

J

All of my favourites have already been mentioned. Struggling to achieve a bit of originality, I’ll nominate Dholakia Sparrow for an honourable mention. In fact, I’ve never met a plain Indian snuff I didn’t like (caveat: I haven’t tried Dholakia Black. For some reason, it sounds kind of disgusting).

S

@alkindisnuff Kendal Brown Original is lightly scented with citrus (and I think tonquin). But it is pretty close to unscented.

thanks SandwhichIsles nice!

Coming in late to the party but G&H Kendal Brown is outstanding. My favorite of the Kendal’s that I have tried so far. It is sadly the only G&H snuff that I really like but I will always have it on hand. There are simply too many to think of just 5 I love the naturals and prefer them at lest so far over anything scented, with a few exceptions of course.

@JakartaBoy The D black isn’t too bad. Now the D Africa that’s a different animal 

J

@basement_shaman, it wouldn’t be the first time I’ve held a totally unreasonable, unfounded prejudice that gets overcome by actual experience.

B

@JakartaBoy it also nothing to get excited about

N

@JakartaBoy it’s not unfounded, D Black smells like cow shit they should rename it Dholakia Cowpie

If you love the smell of fresh Cowpie in the morning then D Black is the snuff for you.

@basement_shaman is too kind labelling Dholakia African as “different”. It’s one of very few snuffs I’ve bought that went right into the bin.

J

@n9inchnails, I’ve spent too much time in the Indonesian countryside for the smell of cowshit to be interesting, novel or attractive. I think it will stay low on my priority list.
